Makes about 6 cups (1.5 L) [twelve 1/2-cup (125 ml) servings]
2 cans [13.5 ounces (400 ml) each] coconut milk
(do not use “lite”)
¾ cup (175 ml) granulated sugar
½ teaspoon (2 ml) kosher salt
1 teaspoon (5 ml) pure vanilla extract
1 cup (250 ml) frozen cherries, thawed
4 ounces (115 g) semisweet chocolate [about ¾ cup (175 ml)],
melted and kept warm (or use dairy-free or carob chips)
1. Using a blender or in a bowl with an immersion blender on low
speed, mix the coconut milk, sugar, salt and vanilla until very smooth
with no clumps. Add the thawed cherries and pulse to combine
(they can be fully puréed, or left in pieces, depending on personal
preference).
2. Chill for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Whisk mixture before pouring
into the ice cream maker.
3. Press Ice Cream and then Start/Stop. Pour the mixture through the
spout and then cover with the cap. Let mix until thickened. When the
ice cream is almost fully churned, drizzle in the melted chocolate.
The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency
is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in
freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes
before serving.

Basic Vanilla Gelato
Drizzle in melted chocolate for a decadent stracciatela gelato.
Makes about 5 cups (1.25 L) ten 1/2-cup servings]
1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream
3 cups (750 ml) whole milk, divided
1 cup (250 ml) granulated sugar
2 tablespoons (30 ml) cornstarch
Pinch kosher salt
½

(this will take no more than 20 minutes, depending on the stove
being used).

temperature. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight.

Custard Gelato
This recipe uses egg yolks to create an extra creamy and custard-like flavour.
Makes about 4 cups (1 L) [eight 1/2-cup (125 ml) servings]
1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream
2 cups (500 ml) whole milk, divided
2 teaspoons (10 ml) pure vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon (1 ml) kosher salt
2 tablespoons (30 ml) cornstarch
6 large egg yolks
¾ cup (175 ml) granulated sugar
1. Put the cream and 1¾ cups (425 ml) milk together with the vanilla
and salt into a saucepan over medium heat and bring just to a
simmer. In a small bowl, mix together the remaining milk with the
cornstarch and reserve.
2. While the cream/milk mixture is heating, combine the yolks and sugar
in a medium bowl. Using a hand mixer on low speed or whisk, beat
well until mixture is pale and thick.
3. Once the cream/milk mixture has come to a simmer, stir in the milk/
cornstarch mixture and continue to stir over heat for an additional
5 minutes, being sure mixture does not come to a boil.
4. Whisking continuously at the same time, whisk about 1
⁄
3
of the hot
mixture into the yolk/sugar mixture. Add another 1
⁄
3
of the mixture,
then return the combined mixture to the saucepan. Using a wooden
spoon, stir the mixture constantly over low heat until it thickens
slightly and coats the back of the spoon. This mixture must NOT boil
or the yolks will overcook. The process should only take a few
minutes.
5. Let gelato base come to room temperature. Then cover and
refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight. Before churning, strain the
base through a fine mesh sieve.
6. Press Gelato and then Start/Stop. Pour the mixture through the
spout and then cover with the cap. Let mix until thickened. The
gelato will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is
desired, transfer the gelato to an airtight container and place in
freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes
before serving.
