Gelato Base

Method

Preparation Instructions

1

Prepare the Base

In a medium saucepan, combine whole milk, heavy cream, and half of the sugar. Heat over medium heat until just below boiling.

2

Whisk Egg Yolks

In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks and the remaining sugar until pale and creamy.

3

Temper the Egg Yolks

Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks while whisking continuously to temper the eggs.

4

Cook the Mixture

Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

5

Add Flavorings

Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Let it cool to room temperature.

6

Chill the Mixture

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

7

Churn the Gelato

Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until thick and creamy.

8

Freeze

Transfer to a lidded container and freeze for at least 2-4 hours before serving.
