To make homemade lemon ice cream, you will need the following ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 4 egg yolks
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons lemon zest

You will also need an ice cream maker and a container to store the finished ice cream in the freezer.

Here are the steps to make lemon ice cream:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, milk, and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from cooking.
3. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
4. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and zest. Cover the mixture and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight.
5. Once the mixture is chilled, churn it in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This will typically take about 20-30 minutes.
6. Once the ice cream has reached the desired consistency, transfer it to a container and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
7. Once the ice cream is firm, it is ready to be served. You can scoop it into bowls or cones, or use it as a topping for other desserts. Enjoy!

Homemade Lemon Ice Cream for Vegetarians (without egg)

Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• Zest of 2 lemons (use a microplane or fine grater to remove the zest from the lemon skin)
• 1/2 cup lemon juice (about 3-4 lemons)
• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, milk, sugar, lemon zest, and salt. Place the pan over medium heat and stir the mixture occasionally until the sugar has dissolved. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
2. While the mixture is heating, use a lemon juicer or squeeze the lemons by hand to extract the juice. Measure out 1/2 cup of lemon juice and set it aside.
3. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the pan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. This can take about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of your pan and the temperature of your kitchen. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the pan in an ice bath (a large bowl filled with ice water).
4. Once the mixture has cooled, cover the pan with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. This step is important because it allows the flavors to meld and the mixture to chill completely.
5. After the mixture has chilled, pour it into the bowl of an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This typically takes 20-30 minutes, depending on the machine.
6. Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm. This will give the ice cream a creamy, scoopable texture.
7. When you’re ready to serve the ice cream, scoop it into bowls or cones and enjoy! You can also add toppings such as whipped cream, sprinkles, or chopped nuts for an extra touch of decadence.

Note: If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can still make lemon ice cream by freezing the mixture in a shallow container and stirring it every 30 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency. This will take longer than using an ice cream maker, but it is still possible to make homemade ice cream without one.

Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar and lemon juice to suit your taste. You can also add a splash of lemon liqueur or a pinch of lemon zest to the mixture for an extra burst of flavor. Experiment and have fun with this recipe!
