Food-processor Strawberry-balsamic Ice Cream
  1. Place a large bowl in the refrigerator and chill for at least 15 minutes. In a food processor, purée the strawberries and sugar until smooth, about 1 minute, scraping the bowl as needed. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl, then pour the puree into the strainer. Using a silicone spatula, work the puree through the mesh; discard the solids. To the strained puree, add the condensed milk, yogurt, vinegar and ⅛ teaspoon salt; stir until homogeneous.

  2. Pour the cold evaporated milk into the chilled bowl. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, whip until it resembles softly whipped cream, has doubled in volume and forms mounds when the beaters or whisk are lifted; do not whip to stiff peaks. Whisk about one-third of the whipped milk into the condensed milk mixture to lighten it. Now, using the whisk, fold in the remaining whipped milk until the mixture is well combined; it will resemble frothy yogurt.

  3. Transfer to a 2-quart container and cover tightly. Freeze until the center is fully frozen, usually at least 6 hours; the timing will vary based on the shape of the container and the temperature of the freezer. To check if the center is frozen, dig into it with a spoon; it should be solid, without any liquid.

  4. Remove the base from the freezer and let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to allow it to soften slightly. Using a sturdy spoon or ice cream scoop, transfer to a food processor; return the now-empty container to the freezer to keep it cold. Process until the mixture resembles a milk shake, 1 to 3 minutes, scraping the bowl as needed.

  5. Return the base to the chilled container. Lay a sheet of plastic wrap directly against the surface of the base, then freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. The ice cream will keep for a couple weeks.
