CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
- Servings: 5 cups
- 2 cups chopped honey dew
- juice from 1 lime (or 2 if your lime isn’t “juicy”)
- 2 ¼ cup whipping cream
- ⅔ cup sugar
- pinch of salt
- Zest from one lime
DIRECTIONS
- In a food processor or blender, puree the honey dew and lime juice.
- In a medium size bowl, whisk together the cream, sugar and salt until sugar dissolves.
- Pour honey dew mixture into cream mixture. Add the half of the lime zest and stir to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate for 1 - 2 hours or over night. The longer you chill it, the creamier your ice cream will be (says Alton Brown).
- Taste your mixture. Add a bit more lime zest if desired. Save the rest to garnish.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and process according to your ice cream maker’s instructions.
- Garnish with lime zest and chunks of honey dew if desired and enjoy.
