I have been obsessed with lemon lately. I am craving it! I have been experimenting with lemon cookies and today I was noticing that my buttermilk was about to expire and than it hit me:
Why not try to make a lemon buttermilk ice cream. When I was little my favorite ice you could buy at the neighbor hood convenience store was the Buttermilk Zitrone from Cornetto. I am getting nostalgic. Anyhow with help with my Ice Cream maker it worked out beautiful!
I used:
1 cup whole milk
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1 organic lemon (juice and skin)
Just mix it and in my case all you need is to pour it in my ice cream maker and wait 30 minutes.
I got the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker and you need to prefreez the metal container (which I store in the fridge to be ready to go when needed). My Ice Cream is always on the soft side and try to be patient enough to put the ice cream in the freezer before serving for a more sturdy consistency.
This Ice Cream did not make it to the freezer :)
Enjoy!!
