From my own long running quest to find an authentic gelato recipe that works. I am shooting for a great vanilla gelato base that I can drizzle melted chocolate into for a real-deal stracciatella (chocolate chip gelato).

The verdict: I screwed this up. I didn't let my ice-cream maker freeze up long enough after the red raspberry gelato, AND I didn't let the 'custard' cool off enough before I put it into the ice-cream maker to freeze. I knew better, and I still jumped the gun. Note to self: don't start making gelato at 10 p.m. at night.

In the end this was an interesting chocolate chip ice-milk of sorts, tasty, but not what I was after. Stay tuned for another try tomorrow. I am determined to make this work. If I make it work, I will post the recipe here.

Green Apple Books sucked me in today and I ended up with three new cookbooks:

-The Jimtown Store Cookbook
-Lulu's Provencal Table
-Block Parties and Poker Nights
