NECTARINE ICE CREAM
This is midsummer in a spoon. My family used to make this in large quantities in a hand crank ice cream maker, but I've scaled the recipe down for a small KitchenAid ice cream maker. Any ripe stone fruit (ie. Apricots, peaches etc) can be used for the nectarines.

Steps:
- Shred, macerate, and smush the stone fruit. Add the salt and a little less than 1/3 of a cup sugar (to taste, add more if you like it sweet). Set aside in the fridge to come together.
- Vigorously mix the milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla together, and pop in the freezer to chill.
- Put the milk mixture into the pre-frozen KitchenAid ice cream maker (it needs to pre-freeze for at least 24 hours to work), and churn it for 5 mins at #2 speed. Increase speed to #4 for 5-7 minutes Add the fruit mixture and churn at #1 till it's mixed in, then churn at #2 for five more minutes. Now you have soft serve. Stick the ice cream in the freezer for 1-2 hours for harder ice cream.
