Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Strawberries

    Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them in half and place them in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Make Strawberry Puree

    Add 100g of sugar to the strawberries and let them macerate for about 15 minutes. Then blend until smooth and strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the strawberry puree, remaining sugar, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

  4. 4

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Churn the Gelato

    Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  6. 6

    Freeze the Gelato

    Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up before serving.
