Chocolate Gelato

ingredients

1
Put first three ingredients in saucepan, and scald. Remove vanilla bean. Whip sugar and egg yolks to a pale ribbon state. The egg yolks should be fluffy. Add about 1/2 cup of the scalded cream to the chopped chocolate in a bowl. Stir until melted. Place the bowl over a double boiler of barely simmering water. Set up a second double boiler. Constantly stirring with a wooden spoon, add scalded cream mixture to the egg/sugar mixture. Place egg/cream mixture over the double boiler and cook custard until it becomes thick and creamy.(Don’t heat custard past 140°)
2
Once custard is cooked, place the bowl over a cold water bath to cool. Gradually add the melted chocolate. Once custard is cool, place in an ice cream machine and run as per manufacturer’s instructions. Enjoy the love!
