I came across Nami Of Just One Cookbook just post her Cherry Ice Cream lately and as I still have some cherries in my fridge, and so I thought I make the same Cherry ice cream too. I think I prefer to make ice cream without the egg yolks in it ~ easy and to avoid what to do with the egg whites later on.
