Comments on: We all scream for … Gelato http://straightfromthefarm.net/2007/08/16/we-all-scream-for-gelato/ In the kitchen with truly fresh produce Sat, 19 May 2012 16:52:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Jennie http://straightfromthefarm.net/2007/08/16/we-all-scream-for-gelato/#comment-18058 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 01:44:58 +0000 http://straightfromthefarm.wordpress.com/2007/08/16/we-all-scream-for-gelato/#comment-18058 Rita – While I appreciate your concern and always welcome feedback, we have not yet figured out what causes the bitterness sometimes while it doesn’t others so there is nothing to update in the recipe itself. The comment thread associated with this recipe should have given you fair warning that it may not be the most foolproof gelato. This site is simply a hobby. I do not get paid for it in any way whatsoever. It is not a professional website as I think you may have mistaken it to be. You are welcome to continue to use this food blog as a resource if you like, or you are certainly welcome to look elsewhere for your recipes.

I thought I would be the exception and not get the bitter taste but I am getting it too from my mixture. This is upsetting getting to the point of almost ice cream and all the work that I did to get ‘BITTER’. I wish the farm people who posted this recipe would address this issue instead of not achnowledging it is a problem………..post a recipe u are responsible for updating it with any issues.

I did notice that once I strained my melon into the milk custard mixture it immediately began to turn bitter so I opted to chill this mix in my ice cream maker quickly, instead of putting this in my frig, and spin it around a few times but otherwise I am letting the ice cream maker do its thing. I sure hope this turned out well otherwise I will not be a very happy camper with this website or recipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cant figure it out. Maybe chilling the custard before adding it to the melon will keep it from getting bitter

I tried this and mine came out very bitter after sitting in the fridge for a few hours. I tried googling the problem and I guess some fruits contain a enzyme that breaks down the protein in the milk. Perhaps the whole mixture should be cooked?

Does anyone know?

Has anyone run into this problem and know it’s cause? It was not sour the night before. Thanks

I appreciate all of the recipes I can get my hands on.

And so much better than ice cream with peach chunks. Every bite was peachy and creamy smooth!
