1poundof fresh strawberries, quartered and leaves removed
⅓cupsugar, more if desired (taste your strawberries for sweetness)
¾teaspoonlemon juice
⅛teaspoonsalt
2cups35% cream
1teaspoonvodka, optional
Instructions
In a large bowl, mash strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and salt together. I find the best way to do this is with a pastry cutter. Mash until mixture is liquidy and strawberries are in tiny pieces.
Next, whisk in the cream and vodka, if using.
Freeze in your ice cream maker according to manufacturer directions. Mine takes about 15-20 minutes. You can eat the ice cream right away (it will have the consistency of soft serve), or freeze for 2-3 hours and enjoy.
When serving, allow to thaw on the counter for 5-10 minutes to allow ice cream to soften.
