Strawberry Gelato

 Strawberry Gelato


Strawberry Gelato

This Strawberry Gelato is a smooth, creamy, and intensely flavored frozen treat with fresh strawberry goodness. It’s the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness, and it’s a lighter alternative to traditional ice cream.

Ingredients (Serves 6-8):

  • 1 pound (450g) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups (360ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Strawberries:

    • In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries with 1/4 cup of the sugar and lemon juice.
    • Mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher, or blend them in a food processor until smooth. Let sit for about 20-30 minutes to macerate and draw out the juice.

  2. Make the Gelato Base:

    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, whole milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar dissolves completely.

  3. Combine with Strawberries:

    • Stir the strawberry puree into the milk mixture until fully combined. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness, if needed.

  4. Chill the Mixture:

    • Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.

  5. 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).

  6. Freeze:

    • Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.

  7. Serve:

    • Scoop and serve, optionally garnished with extra fresh strawberries or a drizzle of honey.

Tips and Variations:

  • Strawberry Texture: If you like chunks of strawberries in your gelato, reserve 1/2 cup of the pureed strawberries and stir it into the churned gelato just before freezing.
  • Dairy-Free Option: For a dairy-free version, substitute the whole milk and cream with coconut milk or almond milk.
  • Richer Flavor: For a more intense strawberry flavor, roast the strawberries with a little sugar before pureeing them.
