Synopsis: Forget ice cream! Impress your dinner guests with unique flavors, and indulge in fabulous recipes and luxurious desserts that you can make at home with Gelato & Sorbetos. Discover where these two icy desserts originated, and the techniques and tools that you need to make this delicious treat at home. Gelato is churned more slowly and frozen at a slightly warmer temperature. The slow churning incorporates less air, so the gelato is denser. The higher freezing temperature means that the gelato stays silkier and softer. Dairy-free and egg-free, sorbets are made from fruit juice or flavored water and simple syrup. They're churned like ice cream to give them a soft and snowy texture. Join authors Francesco Realmutto and Salvatore Potestio as they share 50 recipes for gelato and sorbeto. Enjoy traditional chocolate, vanilla and strawberry to tiramisu, biscotti, mascarpone, hazelnut, and pistachio—even olive oil gelato!
