Directions

180 min.
1. Step

In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and milk over medium-low heat. Stir the mixture gently until it is warm.

2. Step

Add the sugar and salt to the warmed milk mixture and stir until both are completely dissolved.

3. Step

Once the sugar is dissolved, remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

4. Step

Let the mixture cool completely. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the saucepan in an ice bath and stirring.

5. Step

Once the mixture is completely cool, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes to get the perfect consistency.

6. Step

After churning, transfer the ice cream to a lidded container. Smooth the top and put the lid on. Freeze the ice cream for at least 2 hours, or until it gets hard.

7. Step

Serve the ice cream as it is, or topped with your favorite toppings like whipped cream, fresh fruits or syrups. Enjoy!
