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.

[email protected]I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this gelato was to make. I didn't have an ice cream maker, so I just froze the mixture in a loaf pan and stirred it every few hours. It turned out just as good as gelato made with an ice cream maker.
