No milk. Just apples, spices, citrus zest and sugar.

Add “me too” to the fascinated list. If you have a chance to paraphrase the recipe, I would look forward to trying it (I checked the internet, but couldn’t find a source for this particular recipe). TIA!

Will churn two batches today: strawberry and the first black raz of the season :two_hearts:

If anyone else is interested in the recipe, please pm me and I will send it to you. I’m terrible at paraphrasing.

Strawberry done. It chilled for two days before churning, and that reliably means a big bump up in volume of finished ice cream. It filled up my largest container completely to the tippy-top, and I ate at least a serving before it even made it to the container :slight_smile:

lemon-buttermilk sherbet

First time with this recipe: lemon-buttermilk sherbet.

I didn’t make “honey lime strawberries” to accompany it, but I did enjoy it both with and without macerated strawberries, and agreed that the combination of berry with the sherbet was a winner.

The sherbet itself is very straightforward. I was worried Mom would reject it because the base is buttermilk, so I didn’t share that fact with her - just said it was lemon sherbet. She loves it. It’s quite puckery, as you can imagine.

Will definitely be making this again; a local dairy had BOGO buttermilk that was about to reach its sell-by, so I have a fridge full :slight_smile:

The one, the only: black raspberry ice cream from RLB’s “Rose’s Ice Cream Bliss.” The berry picking was very good this year; I have lots more frozen for more batches to come :).

Thank you. It is. And Mom doesn’t fancy it, so it’s all for me. :slight_smile:

I’m so in shock over how early your berries and stone-fruits ripen. We’re almost a month away (earliest) from blackberries… :sob:

I am so envious. I’ve never even seen black raspberries.

Have you ever made corn ice cream? Did you love the recipe? I’m looking for recos…

I’ve made a sweet corn gelato from a Mario Batalli book, and really liked its flavor, paired with a blueberry sauce. I’d like to make a corn ice cream again, but something with a slightly firmer texture than the gelato (plus I’m disinclined to return to Batalli as a source for the obvious reasons). I have my eye on the Jeni’s version.

PAIRED WITH BLACK RASPBERRIES!!! Holy smokes! Thanks!!

I’d have to do it with blackberries, of course, but I’m living my black raspberry dreams vicariously through you.

I’d combo red raz and blackberries if I didn’t have black.

OR I might just make a blueberry sauce. I just picked bluebs on Saturday.

I think in the book, it’s just blackberries, but I haven’t taken a look in a while. I think any of the purple berries are a really good pairing with corn.

I should really buy her book!

DL’s sour cherry “frozen yogurt” from The Perfect Scoop. I made this about 10 days ago, but we’re just getting into it now.

As with other flavors from this book, I subbed some of the yogurt with heavy cream. This gave it a much smoother mouthfeel, but also a sweeter taste. I’m on the fence about the modification. If I do it again, I would cut back on the sugar just a bit.

I also added (a little too much) kirsch. This batch didn’t set up as well as previous iterations. I would cut that back to 1 t. next time.
