Lemon Velvet Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Combine heavy cream, half and half, sugar, and lemon zest in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover saucepan and allow the mixture to steep for 10 minutes.
• Uncover pan and bring back to a simmer over low heat. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl. Gradually stir one cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, several tablespoons at a time. This will help to bring the eggs up to temperature without scrambling them. Stir the egg mixture back into the cream mixture in the saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until the mixture just coats the back of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; cover. Refrigerate overnight.
• Stir the lemon juice into the cold ice cream mixture. Freeze in a 4 to 5 quart ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer ice cream to a lidded freezer container, and freeze for 4 hours to ripen flavors before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk egg yolks together in a medium nonreactive bowl; set aside. Combine cream, milk, sugar, 3 teaspoons lemon zest and the salt in a medium nonreactive saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and mixture begins to bubble around the edges. Ladle about 1 cup of the cream mixture into the egg yolks and whisk vigorously to temper the eggs.
• Pour the egg and cream mixture back into the pan and whisk well to combine. Cook the mixture on medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 7 minutes. Take care to not let the mixture boil. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl.
• Slowly stream in the lemon juice and olive oil while whisking constantly, then whisk in the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Chill the mixture in a bowl set over an ice bath until completely cool. Alternatively, cool the mixture completely in the refrigerator, covered, at least 4 hours, or overnight.
• Just before churning, whisk the mixture thoroughly. Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container, press a piece of plastic wrap against the surface, cover, and freeze until firm. Serve scoops of ice cream with a drizzle of fruity olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and lemon zest, if desired.
