Step 1

Zest and squeeze the lemons. Rinse and dry 4-5 large lemons. Use a microplane to zest the limes (yes, it's a LOT of zesting!) and then use a citrus press to juice the lemons. You'll need one cup of fresh lemon juice.

Step 2

Temper eggs. Combine the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of sugar in a mixing bowl. Add the whole milk to a saucepan and heat over medium heat to a temperature of 165 degrees. (Do not boil.) When the milk is hot, pour 1/2 cup at a time into the eggs/sugar mixture, whisking constantly. Then pour the egg mixture back into the pan and heat to 165 degrees. The mixture should be thick and easily coat the back of a spoon.

Step 3

NOTE: If needed, pass the tempered egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another bowl to remove any potential lumps or bits, resulting in a smoother ice cream base.

Step 4

Add the lemon juice and zest. Add the lemon juice and zest to the pan and heat again - over medium heat - for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly. Let cool slightly.

Step 5

Combine all ingredients. In an 8-cup measuring cup or large bowl, combine all the ingredients - the tempered egg mixture with lemon juice and zest, heavy cream, remaining cup of sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a wire whisk to combine the liquid ingredients.

Step 6

Chill. Place the liquid mixture (covered in plastic wrap) in your refrigerator for at least four hours to chill completely. We often let the mixture chill overnight if time allows.

Step 7

Churn ice cream. Start your 2-quart ice cream churner (I use a KitchenAid Attachment with a stand mixer – linked below.) and pour the chilled ice cream mixture into the bowl (the attachment) while it’s running. Churn the ice cream until it becomes thick and creamy.You’ll see the ice cream thicken and rise toward the top of the bowl. The mixer may slow down slightly. (This should take 25-35 minutes or so.)

Step 8

Add to a freezer-safe container (or a loaf pan) and freeze. Add the churned ice cream into an ice cream container. Place the airtight container in the freezer to set up further. Initially, the ice cream will be very soft so freezing it for a couple of hours helps firm it up.

Step 9

Serve. Use an ice cream scoop to serve the ice cream in individual serving bowls or ice cream cones.
