The perfect treat for a hot summer day, homemade gelato and its fruit-based cousins, sorbetti and granite, are easy to make and richer than ordinary ice creams and sherbets, yet less fattening. Pamela Sheldon Johns provides 50 recipes for gelato and other icy desserts, along with tasty accompaniments. Including sumptuous ice cream photos and a visual tour of Italy's famed gelaterie, GELATO! reveals the secrets of great gelato making for anyone longing for the sweet tastes of Italy.
A beautifully photographed primer on making authentic Italian gelato using a home ice cream maker. Hardcover edition sold more than 30,000 copies.
ReviewsListed as one of the 10 best cookbooks for summer with two recipes and images on website.—NPR.org 6/1/08

PAMELA SHELDON JOHNS is a cookbook author who leads food and wine workshops in Italy and teaches cooking classes in the United States. She makes her home in Tuscany, Italy.
Johns has made a specialty of single-subject cookbooks on Italy: her other titles include Balsamico! and Parmigiano! She starts with the history of Italian ice cream and its cousins, then moves on to frozen desserts ranging from Chocolate-Hazelnut Gelato to Caramel Semifreddo. But there are fewer than 50 recipes in all, and some are for cookies and other accompaniments, so the stars of her book don't really get to shine: only three granite recipes, a dozen for sorbet, and 17 for gelato. Not a necessary purchase.
