Peach Ice Cream:

To the peach pulp add the lemon juice and 1 cup of the sugar–let stand 1 hour.

Add the other cup of sugar and salt to the beaten eggs. Then blend in half of the milk. Cook the sugar, egg, and milk mixture over boiling water to create thick custard. Cool.

Add the remainder of milk, the cream that has been partially whipped, the flavoring, and sweetened peach pulp.

Freeze using 1 part salt to 6 parts ice. Recipe makes 1 gallon of ice cream.

Quick and Easy Vanilla Ice Cream Option:

Here is a basic ice cream recipe that is a little quicker and easier if you don’t have time to make the rich and creamy recipe above.  You can add fruit at the end of the process and make whatever flavor is in season.

Stir together mixing well.  Pour into freezer can and add milk to bring to fill line.  Freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions.
