Roasted Strawberry & Buttermilk Ice Cream

A very good ice cream, rich and lush. The cream and buttermilk combo gives a very interesting flavor. I'll agree with the comment that a little more strawberry flavor would be welcome. This is an ice cream which really benefits from a minute or two of thawing - the creamy texture becomes something you'd expect at an ice cream shop, and the strawberry wakes up just a bit.

As usual Jeni's ice cream's do not disappoint. I held out on the last star only because the strawberry was a bit too weak in this recipe. The texture of the ice cream was excellent and the tang of the buttermilk was terrific against the subtle strawberry flavor. I considered adding the extra puree to the mix but as she cautions about the water content of the berries, I decided not to. Next time... and there will be a next time:)
