This slides down your throat in a way ice cream cannot. My family loves it, but then again, they love anything that is in the same category as ice cream.
Gelato
5 egg yolks
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups whole milk
1 cup light cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Combine egg yolks and sugar in mixing bowl. Beat at medium-high speed until very thick and pale yellow in color.
In medium saucepan, heat milk to a simmer. Add 1 cup of the milk to the egg yolk mixture; whisk until blended. Then stir in the remaining milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats the back of the spoon.
Remove from heat; stir in the cream. Pass mixture through a fine strainer into medium bowl set over an ice bath to chill. Stir in vanilla.
Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
