Do you know the difference between ice-cream and gelato? Gelato is the Italian version of ice-cream which has higher milk content and fewer cream and eggs ( or no eggs at all) than ice cream. It's served at a slightly warmer temperature so its texture stays silkier and softer.
As the benchmark gelato in every Italy store( Italy grows some of the best pistachio in the world!), pistachio is in my to-order-list when I go into any gelateria. Amorino's pistachio and Nutella is creamy, nutty but a bit too sweet for me but the mango sorbet is a perfect balance, bringing refreshing indulgence in a hot day in Madrid. And you can customise your own gelato flower, petal by petal. .
And wonder why Gelato can let the timid flavour shine through? Coz it has substantially lower % of butter fat so it won't overpower the taste of almond, pistachio or fruits! And you won't feel guilty at all to enjoy such delicacy！
