Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Additional Time: 7 hrs
Total Time: 7 hrs 25 mins
Servings: 8
Yield: 1 quart

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  2. 1 cup milk
  3. ¾ cup white sugar, divided
  4. 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  5. 1 pinch salt
  6. 5 egg yolks
  7. 1 teaspoon grated lime zest

Instructions

  1. Combine cream, milk, 1/2 of the sugar, sriracha sauce, and salt in a large saucepan. Heat over medium heat until almost boiling, whisking occasionally. Do not boil or the cream will separate.
  2. Whisk egg yolks, remaining sugar, and lime zest in a separate mixing bowl. Pour 1/3 of the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture; whisk to combine. Repeat this step 2 more times until the cream mixture is fully incorporated into the egg yolk mixture.
  3. Pour the entire mixture back into the saucepan and heat for 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Do not boil. Transfer to a clean bowl with a lid and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, 4 hours to overnight.
  4. Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately as soft-serve or transfer to an freezer-safe container and freeze until scoopable, at least 2 hours.
  5. For a fun topping, cut an egg roll wrapper into thin strips and place the strips on a baking sheet. Lightly spray the strips with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 6 minutes at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), flipping the strips halfway through.

Delicious and super creamy. Next time, I’ll add some lime juice and more zest. What a great idea!
