Blueberry-Lemon Sour Cream Ice Cream

Yields Makes 1 quart
AuthorAndrew Baker,
There are two main types of American ice cream: custard (aka French-style) and uncooked (aka Philadelphia-style or eggless). This easy uncooked ice cream has a lighter texture than custard varieties, but it's still bursting with berry flavor. Prep Time: 10 minutes, plus freezing time. Notes: As with all noncustard ice creams, this mixture freezes solid after a day in the freezer. Let it soften for 10 minutes at room temperature before serving.

Ingredients

 2 cups fresh blueberries
 1 1/2 cups half-and-half
 1/2 cup sugar
 1/2 cup sour cream
 1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
 1/2 teaspoon salt
