Preparation

Step 1

1) Combine strawberries, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup sugar in a mixing bowl, set aside in fridge for 1 hour.

2) Bring the milk and cream to a low boil in a heavy saucepan. Remove from heat.

3) In a large mixing bowl beat eggs until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

4) Gradually add 3/4 cups sugar to eggs, mixing in well.

5) Temper the eggs in the milk/cream mixture by adding eggs slowly (as to not scramble them).

6) Return custard to low heat, stirring occasionally until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and temperature reaches 170 degrees (about 6 minutes).

7) Add vanilla and strawberry mixture to custard mix.

8) Refrigerate 1 to 2 hours before putting into ice cream maker.
