Ingredients

2 cups milk


1 cup heavy cream


4 egg yolks


1/2 cup sugar



Directions

In a medium saucepan, mix milk and cream. Warm until foam forms around the edges. 

Remove from heat.

In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until frothy. 

Gradually pour the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. 

Return mixture to saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture gels slightly and coats the back of the spoon. If small egg lumps begin to show, remove from heat immediately.

Pour the mixture through a sieve or fine strainer into a bowl.

Cover, and chill for several hours or overnight.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. 

Transfer to a sealed container, and freeze until firm. If the gelato is too firm, place it in the refrigerator until it reaches the desired consistency.
