Gelato Al Limone

• 6 whole Egg Yolks
• 1-1/4 cup Heavy Cream
• 2-1/2 cups Half-and-half
• 1/2 cups Lemon Zest
• 1-1/8 cup Lemon Juice
• 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
• 1-1/4 cup Granulated Sugar

1. Combine the egg yolks with the heavy cream with a whisk.
2. Combine the half-and-half, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract and sugar in a large sauce pan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and remove from heat.
3. Next slowly pour a little (about 1/4 cup) of the half-and-half mixture into the heavy cream mixture, whisking the entire time you are pouring. Then pour the heavy cream mixture back into the half-and-half mixture, again slowly while whisking. You don't want the eggs to cook and get all lumpy-blech!
4. Then lightly cover with plastic wrap and stick in the fridge to cool completely, about a half hour.
5. Once cool, put into your ice cream maker and run according to manufacturer's instructions.
6. Enjoy!
7. Makes about 1.5 quarts.
