It is the season for Gelato!

     I made my favorite Gelato today due to a request from my co-workers. I also remembered to take pictures during the process. The recipe is here. First you can see the simple tools and ingredients.
     You take the lemons, zest one of them and juice all of them. Keep the pulp. Chop up the zest.
      Discard the seeds and the membranes. You may need to put the pulp in the food processor but just for a second or two, you don't want to loose the texture.
      Add the juice & sugar and dissolve.
      Whip up your cream a bit.
     Put all in your ice cream maker.
      I run it for 30 minutes until starting to firm up. Make sure the freezer in the machine is good and cold and has been freezing for at least 24 hours or it won't set up very well.
      Put in a shallow wide, freezer safe Tupperware. It freezes quicker if it is spread out. It usually takes a day to get really frozen.
