No Dedicated Machine Needed! Release of 'Italian Gelato & Sorbet to Make at Home' Featuring 47 Smooth Recipes on May 21

Sekaibunka Publishing Inc. will release "Italian Gelato & Sorbet to Make at Home" on Thursday, May 21. This recipe book allows you to make gelato and sorbet with a smooth texture at home without a dedicated machine. It features 47 exquisite recipes created through trial and error by the author, who trained in Italy.

Authentic Italian Gelato Made "Only with a Spoon and a Hand Blender" It is often said that making gelato is difficult without a dedicated machine, but this book achieves a smooth melting and texture using a spoon and a hand blender! The 47 recipes are introduced across three difficulty levels, so even beginners can try them with confidence. It also includes methods for restoring the smooth texture if the gelato becomes too hard in the freezer.

Abundant Dairy-Free Recipes! Delicious gelato can actually be made without dairy products. This is highly recommended for those with allergies, those who slightly dislike dairy, or those temporarily avoiding it. Each recipe comes with specific advice. For example, in a recipe using almond milk, oat milk is suggested as an alternative, with comments indicating that rice milk offers a lighter finish and soy milk provides more richness, allowing you to choose based on your preference.

Great for Diets and Gut Health! Body-Friendly Gelato Recipes The book also introduces guilt-free gelato for those mindful of their daily diet, such as for dieting or gut health. Recipes using high-protein, low-fat ingredients and superfoods are included. In addition to classic gelato flavors like milk & cream and chocolate & nuts, it offers a diverse range of recipes, including reinterpreted traditional Italian and regional sweets, as well as Japanese-style gelato.

Author Profile Yuri Saito Driven by a love for sweets and Italy, she traveled to Italy to learn how to make gelato and sweets. During her training, she wondered if gelato could be made without a machine. After returning to Japan, she conducted her own independent research and opened "giglio," a gelato and Italian sweets class in her home in Kagurazaka, in 2014.
