Recipe for homemade Gelato.
Marianne McClary
Homemade Gelato:
2c. lowfat or non-fat milk
1 c. sugar
¼ c. non fat dry milk
8 egg yolks
1 c. fat free half-and-half
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3c. blueberries (no stem, skin, etc.)
Bring the milk, non fat dry milk, and half of the sugar to a
boil.
Whip the remaining sugar with the yolks.
Slowly stream the hot mixture into the sugar/yolk mixture.
Return to the heat and stir constantly over a med. heat.
When the mixture thickens, immediately remove from the heat
and strain into a chilled bowl.
Add the half-and-half and vanilla.
In a blender, mix a small amount of the gelato mixture with
the fruit. Blend until smooth.
Combine all together.
Place in a pre-chilled ice cream machine, and churn according
to manufacturers suggestion.
Tips: *Use only good quality, ripe fruit. (If it doesn't
taste good by itself, it's not going to taste any better in a gelato)
*After the mixture has thickened as much as it can in the
machine (approx. 20 min.) remove the dasher, cover the gelato and "ripen"it in
the freezer for an hour or overnight. It will firm completely and still be
creamy smooth.
*Whole milk and whole fat half-and-half can be used for a
richer consistency.
