Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil; remove from heat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until chilled.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine ricotta, honey, and salt until smooth. Slowly add chilled sugar syrup. Freeze in an ice-cream maker, following manufacturer's instructions.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ricotta cheese. Fresh, whole milk ricotta will give your ice cream the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overbeat the ice cream base. Overbeating will make the ice cream grainy.
- Chill the ice cream base thoroughly before churning. This will help the ice cream freeze evenly and smoothly.
- Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions.
- Transfer the churned ice cream to a covered container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.
