Gelato - A Healthy Ice Cream

Gelato also known as Gelato Italiano is an ancient Italian frozen dessert which is fast growing as a replacement to the regular Ice cream, reason being a much healthier alternative.  It has about 50% less butterfat as compared to normal Ice creams, and is more tastier and creamier which makes it the hot favorite frozen dessert of the time.  Made with similar ingredients like milk, sugar, nuts, raisins etc, What is it that sets it apart from a regular Ice cream? Firstly Gelato is prepared from fresh milk, natural flavorings and less cream instead of condensed or powered milk frequently used in  ice – cream making. Also regular ice – creams have more air whipped into them because of  100% “over-run”  (Churning during the freezing process incorporates air into the mix, the added air is called over run).  More air means a softer ice-cream which when brought out of freezer gets easily scooped and melts quickly and is less thick.
