Tossing the peaches in lemon juice brightens their flavor.
Courses: Dessert2 lbs | 908g / 32oz | Ripe peaches |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Lemon juice |
3/4 cup | 148g / 5.2oz | Sugar |
1 cup | 237ml | Milk |
3 cups | 711ml | Heavy cream |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Pure vanilla extract |
4 tablespoons | 60ml | Egg yolks (large) |
Peel, pit and slice peaches, reserving peels and pits. Combine the peach slices, lemon juice and 1/4 cup sugar, then set aside.
In a saucepan, combine the milk, cream, remaining sugar, vanilla and peach peels and pits; cook, stirring, over medium heat for 10 minutes. Do not boil. Remove from heat.
Place yolks in a bowl and, whisking constantly, pour in 1 cup of the hot-milk mixture; continue whisking until smooth.
Slowly pour the egg mixture back into the hot-milk mixture in the saucepan, whisking constantly until smooth. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture constantly until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (6 to 8 minutes). The mixture should never boil.
Cool to room temperature and then strain into a bowl.
Puree the reserved peaches in a food processor until smooth. Stir into the milk mixture and freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
This recipe yields about 2 quarts to serve 16.
