Lemon Gelato with Limoncello
Italian ice cream (namely, Gelato) is considered the best in the world! In Bologna even opened a special University Gelato University, where students are taught to make Gelato from fruits and berries, chocolate and vanilla, as well as from rather exotic products, such as olive oil, cheese, Basil and even red wine. If you have no opportunity to visit the Italian Gelateria and eat delicious ice cream, prepare it at home. It is not difficult!

Ingredients

  • Yolk egg

    6 piece

  • Milk

    0.5 l

  • Cream

    200 g

  • Sugar

    250 g

  • Lemon

    2 piece

  • Liqueur

    1 Tbsp

Cooking

step-0
From lemons with a vegetable peeler remove the zest.
step-1
Put the zest into the milk and heat it to boiling but do not boil.
step-2
Cover and let stand 10 minutes. The milk gets nice and delicate lemon color and delicious flavor!
step-3
The yolks with the sugar whisk the white.
step-4
Pour the yolks into the hot milk and mix with a mixer on low speed.
step-5
The egg-milk mixture put on a small fire and, with continuous stirring, cook until thick. As soon as it started to thicken, turn off the fire and ostavlyaite mixture. Stir one more minute. You can do it in a water bath, if you are afraid to scrambled eggs. Cool off the egg-milk mixture. You can put it in cold water with ice. Mix again. the mixture should be homogeneous. You can strain it through a sieve.
step-6
Pour the cream into the bowl of the mixer and beaters along with a place in freezer for 10-15 minutes.
step-7
Whip the chilled cream until fluffy (not oil!) Add a few drops (and who loves stronger - spoon) flavored Limoncello.
step-8
Connect whipped cream with egg and milk mass, carefully, with a spoon from top to bottom.
step-9
If there is an ice-cream maker, prepare the ice cream in it. If not - put it in the freezer for 2 hours. Then whip it in a blender and freeze again for 1.5-2 hours. Multiple whisking gives a smooth creamy texture of ice cream without frozen crystals.
step-10
Repeat the freezing and whisking a few times until you get a gentle soft ice cream. Can be served immediately, soft, and can shift into a form and stored in the freezer for a few days.
