Ingredients

Serves 10
  • Strawberries, hulled, halved600 g
  • Whole milk500 ml
  • Cream250 ml
  • Pasteurised egg yolks100 g
  • Caster sugar180 g
  • Lemon juice15 ml
  • Salt1 g

Method

  1. Toss strawberries with two ninths of the measured sugar. Roast at 180°C for 25 to 30 minutes until concentrated; blend with lemon and cool.

  2. Heat milk and cream. Whisk yolks with remaining sugar, temper, return to the pan and stir to 82 to 84°C.

  3. Pass custard through a sieve, blend in strawberry purée and salt, and cool quickly over ice.

  4. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, then churn, pack and freeze at -18°C for at least 4 hours.

Chef’s notes

  • Roasting removes excess water and concentrates ripe strawberry flavour.
  • When scaling, adjust pan or tin size and work in batches where needed; cooking and proving times follow texture and temperature, not the portion multiplier.

Keeping

Keep covered at -18°C for up to 2 weeks for best texture. Do not refreeze melted ice cream. Temper briefly in the refrigerator before scooping.
