Vanilla Bean Gelato

Make this classic and simple vanilla gelato from the comfort of your home!

TIP:

It is important to stay within the 165°F–175°F range. The eggs should reach at least 165°F for them to be food safe but they will curdle and scramble if overcooked. Additionally, cooking to this temperature range integrates the sugar and thickens the mixture, resulting in smoother texture.
