Extremely good. Creamier than sorbet, lighter than ice cream, with very good flavor. Next time, I might cut back the sugar just a tiny bit. I made a half recipe which more or less fit in my tiny little ice cream freezer. I did not chill the mixture 4 hours first. The buttermilk and lemons were all cold when I made it, and the freezer I used was quite cold. I also forgot to add the salt. Perhaps it could have turned out better if I had done everything exactly right, but hard to imagine. I easily got the necessary amount of juice out of 2 normal sized lemons rather than 3 (for a half recipe). I grated most of the zest off of both.

    I made a small batch of this to try it and was so sad that I hadn't made more--but I will surely make this again. Such good flavor and so little guilt since there is so little fat.
