WINTER STRAWBERRY GELATO



Winter Strawberry Gelato image

I'm calling this "winter" strawberry gelato only because I'm making it with frozen organic strawberries. You can use sweet, fresh strawberries when they're in season. The recipe is inspired by Sherry Yard, a pastry chef who taught me that you can make perfectly wonderful ice cream with no cream and no eggs. I make this one with 2 percent milk, but you could use whole milk. If you're thinking of using skim milk, substitute water and make sorbet.

Categories     ice creams and sorbets, dessert

Time 3h

Yield Just under five cups, serving six to eight

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1-pound bag frozen strawberries; or 1 pound ripe, sweet strawberries, hulled
1/2 cup sugar, preferably organic fair-trade sugar
1/4 cup water
2 cups milk (2 percent or whole)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Place a 1-quart container and one smaller container - for any extra gelato - in the freezer. Combine the strawberries, sugar and water in a medium saucepan, and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the strawberries thaw and become very soft, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, and transfer half the mixture to a blender. Since the mixture is hot, just cover the top of the blender jar with a dish towel pulled down tight. Blend until smooth, and then add half the milk. Blend again until smooth. Repeat with the remaining strawberries and milk. Transfer to a bowl, and chill in the refrigerator.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and salt, and transfer to the container of an ice cream maker. Freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. Scrape into the chilled container, and return to the freezer for at least two hours before serving. If frozen solid, allow to soften in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.

Let cool.

STRAWBERRY GELATO (ITALIAN STYLE)



Strawberry Gelato (Italian Style) image

This recipe is very close to a true Italian gelato. Gelato is more dense than American ice cream because the churning and freezing process differs from the one used for ice cream. Most electric ice cream machines will produce a very good gelato. This recipe requires about 1 to 2 hours refrigeration time to chill the cooked base before processing in your machine. Cook time = the cooking time for the custard base. The freezing/processing time for your ice cream machine is not included in the Prep/Cook times below.

2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup strawberry preserves
2/3 cup fresh strawberries, sliced

  • Pour the cooked mixture through a fine strainer, and cool in the refrigerator until mixture is cold (1 to 2 hours).

STRAWBERRY GELATO



Strawberry Gelato image

A local fruit and vegetable market had strawberries on sale at $2 for a crate (8 pounds). This is what I made with most of those strawberries. While the recipe indicates use of an ice cream churn, the recipe still produces an excellent gelato without it (though it might be harder to scoop out).

Provided by Late Night Gourmet

Categories     Dessert

Time 4h

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lbs strawberries (weight after removing stems)
2 cups white sugar
4 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • Cut stems and non-red parts from strawberries and discard. Cut strawberries into quarters.
  • Mix strawberries with sugar and lemon juice to coat fully. Allow to rest at room temperature for half an hour (this process macerates the strawberries to draw more flavor out of them).
  • Transfer strawberry mixture to a food processor. Puree with 1 cup of half-and-half. Transfer to a plastic container with a lid and repeat for the remaining strawberries and half-and-half.
  • Move container of strawberry mixture to freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, stirring every hour to scrape gelato from edges of container. Continue freezing until it reaches desired consistency. Churn in an ice cream mixer in batches for a few minutes at a time then serve.
