Ingredients:
- 300g fresh yellow peaches, peeled and chopped
- 50g granulated sugar
- 15ml fresh lemon juice
- 480ml heavy cream, chilled
- 240ml whole milk, chilled
- 150g granulated sugar
- 5ml vanilla extract
- 1.25ml almond extract
- 1g fine sea salt
Instructions:
- Toss the chopped peaches with 50g of sugar and lemon juice in a bowl. Let them sit for 20 minutes until the peaches release their natural syrups.
- Pulse the macerated peaches in a blender until smooth, leaving a few tiny chunks if a rustic texture is preferred.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chilled heavy cream and whole milk.
- Gradually add the 150g sugar and salt, whisking until the sugar grains have completely dissolved.
- Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
- Pour the cream base into an ice cream maker. Once running, slowly pour in the peach puree and churn according to manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the churned ice cream into a freezer-safe container and press a piece of parchment paper directly onto the surface.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight, for a professional scoopable finish.
