Ingredients for the recipe enjoy x) : 7 Egg Yolks 2/3 of a Cup of Granulated Sugar 2 ½ Cups of Whole Milk ½ Cup of Heavy Cream 1 Tbsp of Vanilla Extract ¼ tsp of Salt

[@sarakrish9917]

We can do this in mixer

[@Sleezy.Design]

You can mix all the ingredients at once in the pot and use a stick blender the whole time. That's how we make ice cream in our restaurant. You just have to constantly keep the stick blender running while the mixture is heating up. If you put the blender in the middle of the pot right on the bottom it'll create an even swirl throughout the pot so the liquid always keeps moving without burning on the bottom. Once it reaches 85 degrees Celsius it's done. You'll need a powerful blender though, I can imagine that the motor of a cheap stick blender will overheat pretty fast.

[@jonesgerard]

when you run a finger through the creme anglais, turn the spoon sideways to see if it flows across the line made by your finger. If it overheats and curdles just whip a blob of butter into it to re-emulsify the creme.

one thing that drives me crazy is when people do not get everything of the bowl with a scraper just to see how much they are wasting

Girl I could give you a big hug!!! I just made this and it's SIMPLY DILISH!!!! OM Goodness!! Thank you for this video!!

[@luvemcats888]

Great video! Thanks! You mentioned that you wish you could eat the warm liquid as a soup. Actually, Hungarians and many Europeans do prepare this as a soup. They also use the egg whites, combined with sugar and beaten stiff, then they take spoonfuls of it and add it to some simmering milk, cook the mounds for a minute or so, then strain and set them aside. Once the custard is ready, they can serve it hot or cold with the mounds of cooked egg whites floating on top. They call it madártej, which means bird milk. I think in English they call it Floating Islands. It's an old recipe that is well known to and beloved by Hungarians and Austrians. Nowadays, I see that many cooks take a lazier route and, instead of cooking the custard to the proper thickness, they add either some flour or some instant custard pudding mix for thickening. I can't imagine that it would taste nearly as good that way...

[@thetricksters8610]

Its called a marange mate

[@tillybinkie]

Yes - Floating Islands. Can also use pureed apple with islands on top. So, one bowl of English custard with Islands and one bowl of apple puree with Islands. Quite nice to brown the tops of Islands.

WOW! I just made my very first Gelato/ice cream/Dessert Ever and it tasted just like a store bought. I gave it all to my staff and they loved it. They don't believe that it's homemade. You are awesome Laura. Thank You! Now i m making Strawberry icecream.

[@melindachen9138]

when i see the ice cream machine i just want to close this video and crying. because i don't have it.

[@ultratica1]

Melinda Chen try the flea markets ! I didn't want to spend on a machine that I did not use to often, but I did find a Cuisinart, no box but looked new for $8, works great! Found a second one with a box for $12 this week!

[@crumbles9249]

You can search for how to make ice cream without ice cream maker. There’s a manual way to do it!

[@picantesworld7723]

Melinda me too lol

[@ROSE_reddy]

You don’t need all of these ingredients nor an ice cream machine only condensed milk and whipping cream and it tastes just like gelato not even ice cream though it’s supposed to be an ice cream recipe! The recipe with evaporated milk tastes more like ice cream.

[@kellyblue]

Melinda Chen omg! Same I almost cried when she said ice maker 😭

[@andersquist8436]

Great recipe, Laura! I tried it with a half cup of cocoa powder added after cooking and it turned out dreamy.

[@sean.furlong1989]

Laura has a recipe for chocolate ice cream. It's delicious.

[@thebigguycricket]

I just made this and it turned awesome! Thought, when removed from the maker, it was still soft. But awesome!!

[@jcmmmbrains2718]

Adding dark chocolate & cherries to this and giving it a go! Her recipes (+my minor changes) haven't failed me yet.

[@magicmegan4290]

If you don't have an ice cream maker I think you can just take it out of the fridge every 45min to stir :)

[@cmoe9431]

in a video she made before she said every 15 minutes for 4 to 5 hours. I swear if I had to do that though I would never make icecream. lol

[@HaylaASMR]

Oh my god. This recipe is a million starts. It is literally heaven in your mouth. This was my first time making ice cream and it will not be my last! I even put crushed chocolate chips in while it was in my ice cream attachment for my kitchenaid! Amazing. A++++!

[@BibleChapters175]

After you make the custard, put it in a container and then put it in the fridge. After every like 30mins use a hand mixer and whisk it until it's formed a creamy ice-cream consistency like Laura's ice-cream. Bon apetite :)

[@dannymcneal]

I am just learning all the fine points of making homemade ice cream and gelato, and your instructions were so simple to follow. My Cuisinart ICE-100 was delivered today, but I have to let it sit for 24 hours to make sure all the compressor oil has settled correctly (In case it was upside down during any part of the shipping). As far as the recipe goes, I will be substituting the sugar for monk fruit w/erythritol. Then I will classify it as a healthy snack. 😂 Thanks again!

I swear you're a psychic. Tonight I wantd to make profitroles, but my cookbook had a really complex recipe. Then I remembered you had a super easy recipe! I made it and they are beyond delious. I actually hadn't even seen this recipe, but I made my own espresso gelato to go with it! I was coming to recommend it. For a topping, I did take on your espresso glaze frm your brownie recipe. I did a mocha glaze and it was SO YUMMY. So thanks for everything, Laura!

[@LauraintheKitchen]

@eagleaqua1 if you don't have an ice cream macchine you have to go and whisk it every 20 minutes or so. You can still do it without a macchine but it just takes more work.

[@jlrhs95]

Would you kindly share a good "birthday cake" flavored ice cream, please? I absolutely love this but it is hard to find a good birthday cake ice cream without it tasting like bubble gum and having the perfect texture. Much love to you, the fam, and Joe! Thank you!

GELATO AND ICE CREAM ARE THE SAME THING.GELATO MEANS ICE CREAM IN ITALIAN. ITALIANS DON'T MAKE THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN GELATO AND ICE CREAM. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT IN THE US, THEY PILE ON STUFF THAT IS UNNECESSARY. PEACE.

Can you make a homemade green tea ice cream? I think you can just add green tea powder into you vanilla gelato mixture but maybe if you have your own recipe of making it would be great !

Im srry heavy cream in gelato? This is a joke right?!!

[@carolinachighizola7938]

Michael Anello why? It's actually used..

[@carolinachighizola7938]

Louis Macchia in Italy it depends on the flavour, usually fruity flavours don't have cream in them, while "creamy" flavours do..

[@carolinachighizola7938]

exactly what i think too! its not gelato, its ice cream!!!

Just got my new Breville Smart Scoop Ice Cream Maker - this will be my inaugurate ice cream, can't wait! Thank you Laura.

[@heribertozavala2530]

That is not gelato that is ice cream. Gelato does not use cream and this recipie does so this is ice cream

[@brookeparker7386]

If you look up on Wikipedia it say's gelato does use cream and milk. Gelato is another word for ice cream.

[@heribertozavala2530]

Brooke Parker wikepidia tells lots of lies

[@brookeparker7386]

Well gelato is ice cream and it does use cream. Use a brain.

[@heribertozavala2530]

Brooke Parker go to the store buy gelato and read the ingredients U will see that it does not contain cream.

[@RicharddtheStar]

Brooke Parker You need to stop eating ice cream

[@jeanettepetersen1908]

Wanted to share a product I stumbled on as I am in a small town too and its hard to find and when I find the beans I pay out the nose for them. The product is Neilson-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste. I get mine through Amazon and do not pay shipping as I make sure and do the super savings thing with the shipping. I honestly think you will consider me a new best friend. LOL Happy Baking! PS. No there is no bourbon in the product, that is the way they process the beans.

[@BluetheWolfPuppy]

4:36 Dirty joke?? o.o

[@CSRftw]

Your welcome :) When I first made it I had so much fun doing it. If you have friends its really cool to make a large bag and toss it back and forth to each other almost like hot potato but instead of it getting hot it gets colder and colder :)

[@jmaros15]

7min's in before explaining you need ice cream machine! Cheers.

[@PeekaBooBaylee]

Finally Gelato has no air incorporated into in that's what gives is that rich, smooth, creamy texture, a little air does get incorporated into while it is being turned but you can't help that but only a small amount gets in. Also with Gelato in tends to contain more milk than cream, that's where you get the " less fast content from", also it is more dense Hope that answer's your question....

[@neosupperolddesigner]

hey laura cows not make milk for you throw away half of the icecream to the dishmachine! They are not doing it for your wastage!

[@juanp9178]

I thought it was harder to make! And you made it so easy thank you!!!

[@khadrockslol]

Yes. You put it in a glass container or dish into the freezer but u have to whip it up every half an hour or so for about 6-7 hours or until u get a nice consistency :)

[@Superfoodsguy]

I think that after anyone takes a trip to Italy they instantly want to make gelato when they come back to the states... thanks for the recipe!

[@chri8067]

Although my grocery carry vanilla beans, it is a whole lot less expensive to order online. I order about 20-25 beans and seal them in a Food Saver vacuum bag between uses. I also make my own extract, which is very easy. The vanilla bean sets the ice cream apart from the rest.

[@wiggedout2]

Wonderful video! You certainly are loving cooking!

[@Metaio83]

Super awesome! I think I will try this, got myself a new ice-cream machine. However after I pause and think about all after cleaning of utensils used I don't think I will be making gelato that often, almost better to just go buy one! :)) though thanks for the recipe, it is simple and Im sure its fun - will surely make that!!

[@fallingleaveskungfu]

if you have the patience you can do it by hand. set a timer for every ten minutes and take it out of the freezer and stir every time the timer goes off.

[@rumbanisse]

I've just made this recipe. I used a vanilla bean instred of the extract. I LOVE the texture, and the smoothness. It is very delicius!!!!!! However, it is a little too sweet for my taste, so the next time I will add less sugar....

[@BibleChapters175]

Sorry I meant freezer not fridge :P You put the ready made ice-cream into the cooled container, and then you put it in the freezer. Then after every 30mins you use the hand held mixer to mix it until its a creamy ice-cream consistency. Hope I helped :)

[@iaof2012]

I have a recipe book that came with one of the first electric ice cream machines, you had to put ice and salt around the drum, it was a hassle, the new machines are so nice! They call this cooked kind french vanilla. There is a recipe for just plain vanilla, I use it in my newer machine it is very good! But, this cooked kind is fantastic! Yum! I would use the regular kind to make ripple ice cream. It is so quick, just pour the stuff in the machine, and in 20 min you have ice cream!

[@Vienna523]

I made the vanilla gelato with that Cuisinart and it came out great!

[@TheGirlLovesSports]

if you have a standmixer I think if you put some ice in the bowl portion and place another bowl on top with the ice cream base in it you can let the paddle attachment 'churn' it and you will have ice cream. Make sure to freeze the bowls and the paddle if you attempt, of course. I have seen this done though.

[@andrewsborneo]

Thank you Laura. You are so great.

[@terrypogue]

I use a Breville Smart Scoop which doesn’t go in the freezer. I make ice cream a couple times a month all summer. My friends always place orders for their favorites. One everyone loves is espresso chocolate. My favorite is a lemon custard ice cream. A friend just requested a licorice. How odd is that? Im doing it using anise flavoring and black food coloring. My Breville has a gelato setting but I’ve never used it, or have i used the soft serve settings, i set it to hard ice cream.

[@99elizabeth]

you can but its really intensive and takes a while with not as good results! but if you put it in your freezer and then leave it about 30 minutes, and then after that take it out and whisk it every 15 minutes basically until its thick and smooth... which could be a few hours! its time consuming but easily do-able :-)

[@HelenDemetriou]

Aw thank you so much! I could have looked it up online but I was feeling lazy that day LOL Thank you again and bless you! xxx

[@pandalover1234567896]

OMGOSH i just found this today you are such a good cook mayber tomorrow i might make the oreo cake

[@TikiBoat]

You can actually eat it as a soup! My Polish grandma would cook it exactly to your recipe then while the mixture was hot enough, she would put dollops of beat egg whites with sugar and a pinch of slat (kind of like meringue) and put this on top of gelato mixture. The whites mixture would steam, she would turn it over once in the meantime. It looked like little clouds. She served chilled gelato mixture in a soup bowl with meringue clouds on top and seasonal fruit. It was our favorite dessert. It is called ZUPA NIC (SOUP NOTHING).

[@rin__]

oh yea~ I came here because of 'Yumeiro Patissiere' .. good timing since I really wanted to make gelato :3 thnx so much!

[@munchycrunch3195]

It's good how you include the cautions in making ice cream 👍

[@davidedgerly]

here's a tip.. so if you don't want to guess.. the temp in the pan should be 170 degrees no higher or the eggs curdle..

[@BareAllTrueCrimePodcast]

a good alternative is do similar to semi fredo use custard (or pre made custard) heavy/double cream whipped til almost stiff peaks then the sugar and flavourings.

[@Femmefatale1990]

I didn't know ice cream machines existed! thankfully, there's a place around the corner of my house that sells authentic Italian foods and gelato (many of their things, imported straight from Italy).

[@CookieButtBun]

Depends :) you can go to tartget,walmart,costco, etc.

[@JenaLabaroza]

Nice recipe i love it GOD BLESS maam

[@MsTCK98]

Actually gelato is slightly different. One, it's not served completely frozen (whereas ice cream is). It's usually just barely holding together, but not completely solid. The main difference though is that gelato is much heavier and denser (In a good way of course!). Gelato, unlike ice cream, has a lot less air whipped into it. I was in Italy over the summer and my host family lectured me on this for like, 3 hours... haha!

[@MsRhylla]

Nobody scrapes their bowls or pans on cooking shows, it drives me crazy!! I do love Laura's shows and her website though, great job Laura!
