Ingredients:
- 3 cups (680g) fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
- 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream, chilled
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
Instructions:
- Simmer the chopped peaches, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally for about 10-12 minutes until the peaches are soft and the liquid has reduced by half.
- Pulse the reduced peach mixture in a blender until smooth, then chill completely.
- Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until the mixture turns a pale, creamy yellow.
- In a saucepan, heat the milk and salt until it just begins to simmer.
- Slowly drizzle the hot milk into the egg mixture while whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
- Return the whole mixture to the pan and stir over low heat until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Stir the vanilla extract and chilled heavy cream into the warm custard.
- Fold in the chilled peach reduction until the color is uniform.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer directions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
