Strawberry Italian Ice

Strawberry Italian Ice

Perfect on a hot summer day!

Yep, that's a Gelato maker instead of an ice cream maker :-)

1 pound fresh Strawberries

1 cup sugar

1 cup water

Juice of 1 lemon

1 egg white

Make a simple syrup. Bring water and sugar to a boil. Remove from heat once sugar is dissolved. Pour in a bowl and place in refrigerator to cool.

Purée the fresh strawberries. Add lemon juice and mix well.

Combine syrup and puree mixture. Cool for at least an hour. When cool, mix in one lightly whisked egg white then put mixture into ice cream maker.






Run ice cream maker per manufacturer instructions. Serve ice immediately or freeze for up to 3 hours.






Buon Appetito!


(Instead of sugar, I used Splenda to save some calories)
