I found this recipe several years ago and make it whenever I have the opportunity. One thing I like about this ice cream--other than the pleasant lemon taste--is that it does not turn icy the next day. -Susan Litwak Bellevue, Nebraska

LEMON CUSTARD ICE CREAM

This recipe comes from the historic Old Salem Tavern in Winston-Salem, NC. No word on whether or not this frozen treat was served to George Washington when he visited (though I doubt it). This recipe is a bit involved, but I think you will agree it is worth the effort. This ice cream is especially good with gingerbread.

Time 6h

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups half-and-half
1 cup cream
8 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 ounce lemon zest
2 1/2 cups lemon juice
1 pinch salt
2 eggs
3 ounces lemon juice (reserved for ice cream assembly)

Steps:

  • First, make the custard. Simmer half-and-half and cream in a saucepan. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Whisk yolks until light in color. Add sugar. Whisk together. Whisk warm cream into egg mix slowly. Put into a heavy saucepan. Heat and stir until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. DO NOT simmer or boil the egg and cream mixture, as it will scramble. Cool to room temperature. Add vanilla extract. Refrigerate for about 5 hours.
  • Next, make the lemon curd. Put butter, sugar, lemon zest, 2 1/2 cups lemon juice, and salt into a double boiler. Heat until melted and the sugar is dissolved.
  • Meanwhile, whisk eggs. Slowly pour hot mixture from step 3 into eggs while whisking. Place the egg mixture back on the double boiler, whisking continuously. DO NOT simmer or boil. Cook until thickened.
  • Strain the curd and cool completely to room temperature.
  • Finally, assemble the ice cream. Run refrigerated custard mixture through an ice cream maker until it reaches soft serve consistency. Fold in the cooled lemon curd (which should be about 3 1/2 cups) and the 3 ounces of reserved lemon juice. Cover and freeze until very firm.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp cornstarch
3 c whole milk
4 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp butter
1 can(s) frozen lemonade (12 oz)
1 can(s) water (use lemonade can)
1 can(s) evaporated milk (12 oz)

Steps:

  • 1. Beat egg yolks in a small bowl and set aside.
  • 2. Combine sugar, salt, and cornstarch in a large saucepan. Slowly stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens (should coat the spoon). Remove from heat.
  • 3. Stir in about 3 or 4 tablespoons of the hot custard mixture into the egg yolks, one tablespoon at a time. This is important because it brings the temperature of the eggs up so when you add the egg mixture to the custard it does not cook the eggs and make your custard lumpy.
  • 4. Slowly stir in the egg yolk mixture into the custard mixture.
  • 5. Return the custard to medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Allow mixture to boil for about a minute. Remove from heat.
  • 6. Add butter and vanilla.
  • 7. Stir and allow mixture to cool to room temperature.
  • 8. Once cooled, add lemonade.
  • 9. Then add water and evaporated milk.
  • 10. Stir and pour into your ice cream maker.
  • 11. Freeze according to directions.
  • 12. Once freezer stops, pour into an air tight container and freeze for three or four hours (or until completely frozen). Yummmmm!

LEMON CURD CUSTARD ICE CREAM RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Lemon Curd Custard Ice Cream Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 large eggs yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch Salt
1 cup half and half
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup lemon curd

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Pour the half-and-half and cream into the top of a double boiler** and heat over hot water until hot, but not boiling. Stir with a wooden spoon, scraping the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking. **NOTE: I carefully heated the milk and cream in my microwave, being careful not to let it boil. Personally, this is easier for me. Slowly pour some of the hot cream into the eggs, to temper it. Slowly add the rest of the hot cream, whisking constantly until smooth. Return to the double boiler** and cook over medium-low until thick and bubbling around the edges. **NOTE: I used direct heat, being very careful to stir constantly and to keep the temperature on medium-low. It took about 15 minutes for the custard to thicken, so be patient! The custard will coat a wooden spoon. You can also coat a regular spoon, run your finger through it. If the line remains separate, it's ready! Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a metal bowl (don't skip this step). Cover and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. HOMEMADE LEMON CURD (Optional): In a 2 quart saucepan, combine lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, eggs, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat until thick enough to hold marks from whisk, and first bubble appears on surface, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. The curd can be stored in the refrigerator, in a tight-fitting jar, for up to one week. I recommend that you made the ice cream custard and the lemon curd the day before actually making the ice cream. TO MAKE THE ICE CREAM: Whisk one cup of cold lemon curd into the chilled egg custard. Turn on the machine, and then add the cream mix into the canister of an ice cream maker. Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a shallow quart container, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze in the refrigerator's freezer for at least 3 hours until ready to serve.

  • Serve the ice cream with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of lemon syrup.
