2/26 What's the difference between ice-cream and gelato?
\_ I have always found gelato to have a more slushy texture
whereas ice cream tends to have a higher dairy content.
\_ Wikipedia is your friend: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelato
\_ If you're a food snob like me, comparing the two is like comparing
Smurfs and Jem&the Holograms.
\_ O_o I'm not exactly sure how to evaluate this comparison.
\_ Wow, this is the weirdest analogy to grace the
motd in quite a while. What would be the "Jace and the
Wheeled Warriors" of food?
\_ except for tom holub and old farts in their late 30s I don't
think anyone here has ever seen the cartoon Jem, Truely
Outrageous and babelicious!
\_ I have no idea what Jem is. -tom
\_ I call bullshit. My gf is 24 and she watched Jem. In
fact, she still knows the theme song.
\_ 'I call bullshit'? What the fuck is wrong with you?
\_ Haha, it's 'what the fuck is wrong with you' boy!
I missed you, buddy. What the fuck is wrong with
you lately? -- ilyas
\_ How about YOU? How old are you and do you remember Jem?
Is your gf as hot as Jem?
\_ I'm 28 and remember Jem. As far as comparison goes
it's hard to judge, with Jem being a cartoon character
and all.
\_ fine. How about Minmei from Robotech? Is she as cute
as Minmei? I love Minmei, she's the hottest. Why
Rick Hunter goes for an old hag like Lisa, sheeit mama
\_ Uhm, so you like underage delusional ditzes? You
scare me. You should probably be in jail or on
medication.
\_ Does gelato have any gelatin? - vegetarian
\_ Generally no |

| en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gelato ice cream, Gelato machinery whips almost no air into the gelato, result ing in a dense and extremely flavorful product. This allows even non-dai ry gelato to match and sometimes exceed dairy-based gelato or ice cream for taste. Gelato typically contains 3-10% fat depending on the ingredients (nuts, m ilk, or cream would increase the fat content). North American style ice creams contain more fat than gelato, ranging between 16-30% since cream is used. High end ice creams use more cream, whereas high end gelato com bines higher quality ingredients with milk, water or soy milk. Gelato is typically made from a mixture of: * 1/2 - 1 liter of water * 200 - 600 grams of sugar * 1/2 kilogram of fresh fruit or other ingredients * 0 - 1/2 liter of milk * 5-25 grams of stabilizer The exact proportions vary with the goal of producing a product that is s oft: neither frozen solid nor remaining a liquid when frozen. |
