Making homemade Strawberry Gelato is easier than you might think! Plus, it’s a great way to preserve fresh summer strawberries for weeks to come. You’ll love how easy this delicious gelato recipe is to prepare!

Strawberry gelato is an Italian-style frozen dessert made with a custard base, strained fresh strawberry puree, and a dense churn for a silky texture. This homemade gelato recipe delivers vivid pink-red color and intense berry flavor that’s brighter than American ice cream.

strawberries (hulled)

heavy cream

cornstarch

tsp vanilla extract

Blend the fresh strawberries with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and lemon juice until smooth, then strain to remove seeds and set aside.

Reserve the strained strawberry puree so it’s ready to mix into the finished custard.

Make the strawberry puree

Heat the whole milk and heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming, not boiling, about 3–5 minutes (visual cue: steam rising from the surface).

Whisk the egg yolks, remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and cornstarch until smooth and pale, about 2 minutes.

Slowly whisk the hot milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture in a thin stream to temper, keeping it smooth (visual cue: uniform, thickening custard).

Return everything to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened like a pudding—about 5 minutes (visual cue: a spoon leaves a clear trail).
