DIRECTIONS

STEP 1: BLEND

• Use a blender or hand blender to blend the milk, lime juice, and mango until smooth.

STEP 2: HEAT

• Add the cream, blended mango mixture, and sugar to a small saucepan over medium heat and raise to around 150°F.

• Stir until the sugar dissolves, then reduce heat to low.

• Add sugar as needed to make the mixture slightly sweeter than desired at this stage. The perceived sweetness will reduce once frozen.

STEP 3: TEMPER

• Add egg yolks to a small, heat-resistant bowl and whisk. Slowly add 1 C of the heated cream mixture to the egg yolks while gently stirring. This process evenly distributes the yolk proteins to prevent them from clumping.

STEP 4: COOK

• Add the yolk mixture back to the saucepan and bring up to 165°F while occasionally stirring.

• Remove from heat.

STEP 5: CHILL

• Pour the mixture through a strainer into a heat-resistant bowl and submerge the bowl in an ice bath to rapidly chill.

• Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 3 hours.

STEP 6: CHURN

• Add the ice cream base to your mixer and churn for 20-30 minutes.

STEP 7: SERVE

• Top with fresh mango, chamoy, and Tajín.

STORAGE

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one month.

ICE CREAM MACHINE

An Ice Cream Maker is not required, but it's nice to have. The churning process that this machine helps with adds air and creaminess, but this is mainly for texture and doesn’t impact the flavor. We use this Ice Cream Maker.
