Instructions:
- Trim and wash strawberries; cut into 1/4-in. slices. Apply ½ of the sliced strawberries in a blender or food processor and puree. Set aside both pureed and sliced strawberries.
- In a saucepan, place the heavy cream and milk and apply over medium heat to warm.
- In the meantime, combine together the skimmed milk powder, sugar, and corn flour in a measuring jug.
- Next, use a probe thermometer to measure the temperature of the cream and milk mixture. When it reaches 40ºC, apply the dry ingredients. Beat together; stir constantly with a spatula till it reaches 85ºC. Remove and apply the strawberry puree; mix well.

- While the mix is cooling, before your remove it from the freezer, dice the remaining sliced strawberries into smaller pieces (to combine into the gelato).
- Now, you’re ready to churn it into gelato. Begin by passing it through a sieve.
- Process with a hand blender, then stir in the diced strawberries.
- Add into your ice cream machine; churn until frozen.
- Scoop your fresh strawberry gelato into a container, cover, and freeze. You can consume this gelato within one month.
