Base Ingredients
Method
Gelato Preparation
Create the Base
In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Add Flavoring
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Chill the Base
Once cooled, cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to chill thoroughly.
Churn the Gelato
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Freeze the Gelato
Transfer the churned gelato into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours to harden.
