Strawberry Ice Cream

Garrett enjoying his strawberry ice cream.
Garrett decided to make strawberry ice cream using our Cuisinart ice cream maker, the kind with the frozen ring that comes out of the freezer to churn the ice cream mixture. He wanted smooth ice cream (no chunks of fruit), and he was looking for serious strawberry flavor. This job called for fresh strawberries and our food mill. I know, it's not strawberry season, but we made due with a package of fresh strawberries from Stop 'n Shop that looked pretty good. Imagine if we thought of this back in June when Buells had pick-you-own strawberries for sale?
Here's the ice cream in one of my new favorite bowls.
Anyway, we chopped the strawberries into big chunks and ran them through our food mill. The result was strawberry pulp without any seeds. All of this strawberry goodness went right into the ice cream mixture, giving it a bright pink color and great fruity flavor. Adding lemon juice in the mixture really brightened the flavor of the ice cream. We churned it in the ice cream maker for about thirty minutes. Unfortunately we filled it a little too full so we had to scrape off the outside and top of the ice ring right into our bowls. At this point the ice cream was a think soft-serve consistency. We transferred it to a tupperware dish and let it cool in the freezer for about two more hours to make it more of a scoop-able ice cream. The strawberry ice cream was so refreshing on a hot August afternoon.
The flavor was wonderful and the color was really appealing.
