How to Make Blueberry Ice Cream

  1. Combine 2 cups fresh blueberries, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, mashing the berries gently with a potato masher while stirring frequently.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  4. In a blender, puree the blueberry mixture with 1 cup whole milk until completely smooth.
  5. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream.
  6. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or lumps.
  7. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  8. Churn the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. (This usually takes 20-30 minutes).
  9. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to harden further.
