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

Make the Base

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are light and frothy. Slowly pour in a small amount of the warm milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly to temper them.

Whisk Egg Yolks

Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Combine Mixtures

Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until completely chilled, about 2 hours.

Cool and Flavor

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

Churn the Gelato

Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving. Scoop and enjoy!
