Directions
1
Put sugar and lemon zest in a food processor and spin to extract the oils to give a nice lemony sweetener.
2
Take the milk, cream, and sugar and put it in a double boiler over medium-low heat.
3
Get the cream mixture up to a temperature that’s suitable for tempering the eggs.
4
Temper the eggs by taking the hot cream and whisking that into the egg yolks.
5
Take that mixture back to your double boiler.
6
Bring this up to 176, but anything after 160 is fine.
7
Once you take your base off the heat, stir in that sour cream.
8
Let our base steep off the heat for 30 minutes so it can take on as much of that lemon flavor as possible.
9
Strain it right into an ice bath.
10
Throw in the juice from those two limes.
11
Wrap it up real tight and throw it in the fridge for at least 24 hours.
12
Throw everything into the ice cream churner.
13
Put the resulting mix into a container and freeze until it's firm enough to your liking.
