We have released you all the criteria to recognize a real homemade ice cream: the basic characteristics that affect the temperature, the choice of raw materials and ingredients, texture, color and aroma. All these qualities can be found in the delicious Gelateria della Musica in Milan, which uses only fresh seasonal fruit, or in the Teatro del Gelato in Sant’Agostino, in the province of Ferrara, where thanks to a careful selection of fresh ingredients, they prepare delicious ice-creams without the addition of dyes, emulsifiers or synthetic flavors.
Practical and tasty, ice-cream has been able to adapt to changing times and new cultures, being an excellent example the Sushi and Sashimi ice cream by the chef Filippo Novelli, a perfect combination of Italian cuisine and Japanese tradition. Also, this excellence delicacy has tried to meet the needs of the increasingly vegetarians, in which the ingredients commonly used as vegetables, fruits and cereals are preferred, without resorting to fat and animal proteins.
