Lemon Ice
Refreshingly tart and sweet, lemon ice delivers a spoonful of summer in every bite.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest, from 1 lemon
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 3 lemons)
- 1 cup sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups half & half
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and salt. Gradually whisk in the half & half, and continue whisking until the sugar is completely dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow container, such as an 8-inch cake pan and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze until the mixture is solid around the edges yet still mushy in the middle, about 2 hours. Stir well, cover again, and continue to freeze until completely firm, 2 to 3 hours more. Once firm, scoop into chilled bowls to serve.
- Make-Ahead Instructions: The lemon ice will keep for about 1 week in the freezer.
