Recipe of Gelato

Join me and let's see how to make Gelato

Instructions:

Step 1
• In a saucepan, combine the whole milk and heavy cream. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the milk mixture, then add the pod itself. If using vanilla extract, skip this step.
Step 2
• Heat the milk mixture over medium-low heat until it begins to steam, but do not let it boil. Remove from heat and discard the vanilla bean pod.
Step 3
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.
Step 4
• Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously.
Step 5
• Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170°F or 77°C). Do not let it boil.
Step 6
• Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Let it cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 7
• 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.
Step 8
• Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Step 9
• Scoop, serve, and enjoy your homemade Italian gelato!
