Fresh strawberry ice-cream for Spring!
Fancy a bowl of springtime-infused, fresh strawberry ice-cream?
This sweet, rich ice-cream is simple and quick to make. It is my entry into this month's Monthly Mingle hosted by. The theme is 'Spring Fruit Sensations' and what can be a better introduction to Spring than bright red strawberries!
Although the plump strawberries recently hit the market it was Kevin's post at Closet Cooking for a strawberry sour-cream bread which served as my kick in the pants to pick some up. Unfortunately, the consistently horrible produce at my local grocery chain left me disappointed as I stared at half-rotten, slightly moldy berries for $3 a quart. Even at this sale price, I was too disgusted to buy them.
Fortunately, there are usually several neighborhood street corners where local farmers set up stands to sell 6-quart flats, so I decided to drive around and find one. It's way more strawberries than I needed, but decided I'd figure out what to do with the leftovers. I found a street vendor near our local park and he only charged $10 a flat (and the berries were MUCH more fresh!).
