Gelato Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Base

In a saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot, but not boiling.

2

Combine Egg Yolks

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are pale and slightly thickened. Slowly pour in about one cup of the hot milk mixture, whisking continuously to temper the yolks.

3

Thicken the Mixture

Pour the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).

4

Add Nutella and Vanilla

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the Nutella and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.

5

Chill

Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thoroughly chilled.

6

Churn the Gelato

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

7

Freeze

Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
