Ingredients:
- 2 cups of fresh strawberries
- 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 3/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. Rinse and hull the strawberries. Cut them into small pieces and set aside.

5. Once the mixture is smooth, pour it into a container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it's completely chilled.
6. Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
7. Once the ice cream is done churning, transfer it to a container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until it's firm.
8. Scoop and enjoy!
