Yield Makes about 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 13

For ice cream
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 large egg yolks
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice
For sauce
1 (12-ounce) jar black-currant preserves
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Special Equipment
an ice-cream maker and a candy or instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Make ice cream:
  • Bring cream, milk, sugar, zest, and salt just to a boil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring occasionally. Lightly beat yolks in a large bowl, then add hot sweetened cream in a slow stream, whisking. Pour custard into saucepan and cook over moderately low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until a candy or instant-read thermometer registers 170°F and custard coats back of spoon, about 10 minutes. Pour through a sieve into a clean bowl, then stir in juice. Cool custard, stirring occasionally, then chill until cold.
  • Freeze custard in ice-cream maker. Transfer ice cream to an airtight container and put in freezer to harden.
  • Make sauce:
  • Blend together preserves and lemon juice in a food processor until smooth. Strain sauce and/or thin with water if desired.
  • Serve ice cream with black-currant sauce.

This recipe is missing some important steps. It doesn't say how long to churn the ice cream or how to store it.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my ice cream turned out icy and not creamy. I think I might have over churned it.

This recipe is a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to buying lemon ice cream from the store.

I had some trouble finding black currants, but I was able to substitute them with blueberries. The ice cream still turned out delicious.

This ice cream is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for people who like sour desserts.

I'm not a big fan of lemon desserts, but I really enjoyed this ice cream. The black currant sauce really balances out the tartness of the lemon.
