Nov 21 2007 - 8:18am Yesterday Oprah announced her yearly Favorite Things list. It's chock full of great gift items — um hello, I want that crazy fridge! — but there's one thing that you can run out and get yourself: Ciao Bella Blood Orange Sorbetto.
They have tons of other flavors as well. I like the Blackberry Cabernet. Next I want to try the Green Tea/White Chocolate one. I found mine at Whole Foods.
*Sorbet - does not contains dairy; always very light in flavor
*Sherbet - almost always has a fruit component, but also must contain dairy to produce a dessert that is lighter than ice cream, but richer than sorbet
*Frozen yogurt - contains dairy that has been cultured (though most do not contain active cultures), and is churned to resemble soft ice cream, with a smooth, rich texture.
*Ice milk - just like an ice cream, but made with milk rather than cream; a little used term for strict constructionists of the word "ice cream," since most home chefs would say ice cream
anyway
*Ice cream - must have at least 10% milkfat (or 8% if there is a mix-in) by volume (if sold commercially); may or may not contain eggs
*Frozen custard (also called French ice cream) - ice cream that is made with at least 1.4% egg yolks, giving it a richer texture than ordinary ice cream.
*Gelato - ice cream with a mixture of milk and sometimes cream in the base, often including eggs. It is churned less than regular ice cream and has less air in the final product, which gives
it a dense texture.
