The best strawberry ice cream EVAR
Jul. 29th, 2006 05:02 pmI've been meaning to post this recipe for weeks now, ever since the first time we made it. The recipe comes from Frozen Desserts, a book I bought when I first got my ice cream maker.
Trust me. It's delightful.
Strawberry Ice Cream Flavored with Balsamic Vinegar
(Gelato di Fragole all'Aceto Balsamico)
1 lb fresh strawberries
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp heavy cream
Wash and hull the strawberries. Dry them thoroughly. Put them into a food processor or blender with the sugar. Start the machine and add the balsamic vinegar through the lid or funnel. Blend into a smooth puree. Pour out into a bowl and refrigerate for 2-3 hours. The sugar and vinegar will bring out the flavor of the fruit.
Combine the strawberry puree and cream and freeze in the ice cream maker.
