Method
Preparation of Base
- 1
Mixing the Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- 2
Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to chill. This will improve the texture of the ice cream.

Prepare the Fruit
If using fresh pineapple, peel, core, and chop it into small chunks. For strawberries, wash them, remove the stems, and slice them if they are large. You can also blend them into a puree if desired.

Combine with Base
After the base mixture has chilled, divide it into two equal portions. In one portion, gently fold in the pineapple chunks, and in the other, fold in the strawberries. Make sure the fruit is evenly distributed.

Churn the Ice Cream
Pour the pineapple-flavored mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. Repeat the process with the strawberry mixture.

Freeze the Ice Cream
Transfer the churned ice creams into a quart-sized airtight container, layering them if desired. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
