Homemade strawberry ice cream

This recipe makes homemade strawberry ice cream just perfect: it's soft, smooth, just the right amount of sweet, and full of rich strawberry flavor. With a minimum of effort, you will also get a delicious dessert, which is absolutely perfect for a hot summer day. We will prepare this ice cream without using a special ice cream maker - just in the freezer.

When making this sweet treat, it is important to use only the freshest ingredients. The cream must be full fat (30-33%), and the egg yolks must be the freshest. You can safely adjust the amount of sugar to your own taste (according to the indicated proportions, the ice cream will not be very sweet). In addition, if desired, you can flavor the already fragrant strawberry ice cream with vanilla.

From the indicated ingredients you will get approximately 1200 grams of wonderful homemade strawberry ice cream. This is a basic recipe, and then you can experiment by adding certain ingredients: nuts, chocolate, candied fruits, fresh or candied berries.

Ingredients:

Making a dish step by step:

The recipe for this homemade ice cream includes the following ingredients: milk (any fat content), heavy cream (mine is 33%), sweet sand, egg yolks and strawberries. Berries can be consumed either fresh or frozen.

First, let's start making the custard base for homemade strawberry ice cream. To do this, place three egg yolks in a suitable bowl. Proteins can be frozen and then consumed as fresh after defrosting. Add sugar and beat with a whisk or mixer for about 30 seconds until the mixture becomes smooth and homogeneous. Pour milk into the yolks with sugar. Mix everything very thoroughly again.

Place the dishes with the resulting mass in a water bath. This means in another saucepan, bring a glass of water to a boil. We put this whole structure on the fire and, stirring constantly, cook the yolks, sugar and milk over low heat until the mass thickens - 10 minutes is enough. Just don’t overcook it, otherwise you’ll end up with an omelette, and we need a 100% smooth custard. When you feel that the mass has begun to thicken, immediately remove from the water bath.

The mixture of hot custard comes out similar to condensed milk. Let it cool completely. To speed up the cooling process, you can place the saucepan in a bowl of ice water and stir the mixture.

I carefully wash the freshest strawberries. To do this, we fill a huge container with cool water, put the berries in it and let them swim for almost a minute. Gently mix them with your hands, then take them out and transfer them to a colander. It is important not to remove the stalks until the berries are unstained. Otherwise, the strawberries will absorb a huge amount of water, and there is no need for excess moisture in ice cream. After this, let the berries dry completely - transfer the strawberries to a towel. We tear off the stalks and place the dried berries in the container in which you are going to chop them. We rub the strawberries through a sieve to get rid of the seeds. You can pour a glass of boiling water over the cake, add sugar or honey, strain and you will get a fragrant strawberry compote.

Pureed seedless strawberries come out like a runny berry puree.

We combine the berry mass with the custard base, which has already cooled completely.

Mix everything until smooth with a spoon, spatula, whisk or using a mixer.

After this, you need to beat the cool heavy cream until fluffy so that it comes out like cream. It is not necessary to whip the cream to stiff peaks - let the mass be gentle and soft. Don't overdo it, otherwise you'll end up with butter and whey.

Add whipped cream to the chilled custard with strawberry puree. Using a whisk or mixer at the lowest speed, combine everything until smooth. Not for long, just to make everything smooth.

This is our preparation for homemade strawberry ice cream. It is already unusually tasty, but we want ice cream, so the base needs to be frozen.

We transfer the future dessert into a freezer-safe container, cover it with a lid and put it in the freezer.

It’s better to take out the ice cream every 30 minutes and carefully stir it so that there are no ice crystals in it later. And so at least 4-5 times. After four to five hours of freezing, there is no need to stir the mixture. The more often and more actively you stir the contents of the dish, the less likely it is that there will be ice crystals in the finished ice cream.

Homemade strawberry ice cream is ready. Let's pamper ourselves and our loved ones with a delicious homemade delicacy!

In fact, there is nothing complicated in making any homemade ice cream. The principle is to consume high-quality products and follow the directions correctly, that’s all. Bon appetit, my dears! Have a delicious and fragrant summer for you!

Natural homemade strawberry ice cream recipe

In the midst of the hot summer season, you always want to treat yourself to cool and refreshing ice cream. Strawberries are ripening both in the garden and in their own plots, enticing with their sweet and sour taste and delicious smell. It is logical that it is completely appropriate to combine the coolness of ice cream and the taste of the freshest strawberries into one whole, especially since this does not require any special and expensive ingredients. And if you make strawberry ice cream at home, it will also be healthy, without the additives, preservatives and colorings that manufacturers add to the industrially prepared cool treat. And you can offer this ice cream as a dessert even to small children.

For the very first time (if the housewife has never made ice cream herself before), it is better to choose a recipe for homemade strawberry ice cream with the smallest set of ingredients in the composition. The usual traditional recipe is completely suitable for this. To understand how to create strawberry ice cream, you need to carefully read the recipe and follow it during production.

Traditional recipe for making homemade strawberry ice cream

For this recipe you will need:

• strawberries - 250-300 g;
• sweet sand – 100 g;
• sour cream or cream – 250 ml.

If someone likes the sweetest and richest cool desserts, the amount of sugar and strawberries can be increased slightly.
Manufacturing stages:

1. First, be sure to thoroughly wash the strawberries and remove stems and leaves, and remove spoiled areas (if any).
2. Then you need to dry it so that there is no excess water left on the berries, because then the ice cream will turn out to be very liquid.
3. Next, you need to beat the strawberries together with sour cream (cream) in a blender or in a special food processor. Such equipment will certainly be found in the kitchen of good housewives.
4. Next, sweet sand is added. When determining the sweetness of taste, you need to take into account that a chilled product will always be less sweet than a warm one. In other words, when frozen, the finished ice cream will become less sweet than the mixture during production.
5. If the purchased mixture comes out very watery, this is not a reason to be upset - when it freezes, the mass will thicken significantly. It must be divided into plastic cups (in portions) and placed in the freezer to freeze. The future strawberry ice cream must remain there for at least 2 hours.
6. After this time, the tasty and fragrant, and, most importantly, natural (chemical-free) delicacy is ready for consumption. It can be offered to children as a vitamin sweet without fear.
7. If you want to decorate the ice cream with corn flakes, just slightly defrost the finished portions of ice cream and roll them in sprinkles, then place them on a plate and quickly put them in the freezer.

Homemade ice cream with strawberries and condensed milk

This recipe differs from the above only in the presence of a new ingredient - condensed milk. You need about 300 g of it (an ordinary tin can of condensed milk). Condensed milk will make strawberry ice cream the richest, most concentrated and sweetest, and will also give a lasting smell and taste of condensed milk, beloved by everyone since youth.

It is necessary to add condensed milk at the very beginning to the strawberry puree (ground on a grater or in a blender), and only after that all the other components of the ice cream are added - sugar, cream (sour cream).

By the way, everyone decides for themselves how to chop strawberries. Some people love large pieces of berries; in this case, it is better to use an ordinary table grater. But if you like a homogeneous mass of ice cream, you should use a blender.

If the recipe uses cream rather than sour cream, it must be vigorously whipped, then the strawberry ice cream will turn out to be a light mixture and will practically “melt in your mouth.”

Diet homemade vanilla-strawberry ice cream

If a housewife who has started making homemade strawberry ice cream, or members of the household are watching their weight, you can successfully prepare ice cream with a reduced fat content and, therefore, a minimum of calories. For this purpose, sour cream (or cream) simply needs to be replaced with the lightest ingredient - milk.

By the way, you can choose milk of varying degrees of fat content at your own discretion. With the same amount of other milk ingredients, you need to take about 350-400 ml.

In addition, this recipe for homemade strawberry ice cream will require 3 chicken yolks (to obtain the thickest ice cream mixture). The yolks together with the milk must be thoroughly heated with constant stirring, and then cooled until thickened. And only later is berry puree or strawberry syrup added.

To make the ice cream as homogeneous as possible, it is better to stir it constantly when freezing.

Vegan strawberry banana ice cream

If the question of eating only products of plant origin is categorical, preparing homemade strawberry ice cream according to this recipe is a good solution to this dilemma. But then a new ingredient appears in the usual recipe - bananas - exotic fruits that are very popular among both adults and children. I would like to note that the taste of a ripe banana harmonizes and mixes perfectly with the taste of strawberries.

• 5 medium-sized bananas (if you use mini-bananas, you need to take more of them);
• 300-400 g strawberries;
• vanillin, cinnamon - to taste and optional.

Bananas must be frozen in advance in the freezer (25 - 40 minutes), because only frozen bananas will give the future ice cream the texture of a melting traditional ice cream.

At this time, prepare the strawberries: wash, remove the stems, and dry. Later we grind it using any method, if desired.

Then we combine it with crushed (definitely in a blender) frozen bananas. If desired, you can add sweet sand, but bananas themselves have a rich sweet taste, this must be taken into account when making homemade strawberry-banana ice cream according to this recipe. In addition, you can add a little vanillin or cinnamon to this recipe. This will make the taste softer, gentler, and even more homely.

This strawberry ice cream contains not a drop of animal fat and a limited amount of calories. Vegetarians can safely eat this ice cream in their daily diet.

As we see, making strawberry ice cream at home is not so difficult. No complex technical devices or technologies are needed for this. Everything is as simple as possible. All recipe ingredients can be found in any kitchen or refrigerator.

This ice cream freezes perfectly in any refrigerator. You can freeze individual portions in personal containers (plastic cups), or you can freeze them in shared containers (for example, plastic containers). Then, when serving, portions of ice cream can be given the traditional shape of balls.

If you have an ice cream maker on your farm, this will further facilitate and speed up the process of making delicious strawberry sweets. Dessert prepared in an ice cream maker comes out the most airy and tender. If it is not there, then it is completely possible to do without it.
