Ingredients
- 500 g strawberries, cleaned and hulled
- 220 g white granulated sugar
- 500 ml heavy cream
- 250 ml whole milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- Clean the strawberries and hull them by cutting around the leaves and removing the hard white core at the top of the berries.
- Cut the strawberries into small pieces and put them in a bowl or directly in your blender. Add the sugar and stir a bit so the sugar covers all the berries.
- Let the strawberry sit for 30 min.
- Blend the strawberries on medium to high speed until everything is smooth.
- Pour the heavy cream, whole milk, salt and vanilla extract into a new bowl. Give it a quick stir - then add the blended strawberries.
- Gently combine everything until you have a nice pink-ish mixture.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, and then churn it in your ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions.
- Freeze for 8 hours for the ice cream to harden - then enjoy :-)

Notes
If you’d like to ensure an extra smooth texture, you can pour your mixture through a sieve before churning. This will help strain out any seeds that the blender might have missed.
