- 1 medium lemon or orange
- 6 cups whole milk
- 1 1/3 cups sugar
- 12 egg yolks, beaten
- Use a vegetable peeler to remove long strips of peel from the lemon or orange; set aside. In a large saucepan, combine 3 cups of the LACTAID(R) Whole Milk, the sugar, and egg yolks. Add lemon or orange peel to saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture just coats a metal spoon (mixture may appear slightly curdled). Remove from the heat. Stir in remaining LACTAID(R) Whole Milk.
- Cover the surface with plastic wrap. Refrigerate several hours or overnight until well chilled. (Or, place the saucepan in a sink of ice water to chill quickly.) Remove lemon peel from mixture.
- Freeze in a 4- or 5-quart ice cream freezer according to the manufacturer's directions.
