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

I've been looking for it at every gelateria since my return home to the US. Pignoli was also great and I adored the violet gelato too. Riso was my favorite too!!!

The riso gelato I had in Siena was amazing! My favorites there were Riso, Pine nut, Cantucci con Vin Santo (a type of italian cookie with an italian wine made from dried grapes), and the ever popular Pistachio. We really did eat gelato three times a day! Siena’s gelato has it’s good and it’s not as good. The riso gelato I had in Siena was amazing!

I'll look into the other two, thanks!

If not, seek them out! You'll find tourism is the reason so many people writing in English praise the gelato of Florence and Rome above all others; the same visitors are simply not going to Sicily in quite the same numbers. However, once you investigate the history of gelato and culinary history of Sicily, you'll find out exactly why your suspicions are warranted.

If I have a couple scoops of Ben and Jerry's, I am not going to be feeling good later, but I can eat buckets of Gelato. Of course, for people who are lactose intolerant, they can opt for granita, which I don't think you'll find anywhere besides Sicily... My favorite Gelato is arancia, fragola, and watermelon is good, oh, don't get the kiwi, it taste more like the furry skin it comes in...

Sounds so yummy! And how else would you keep cool? Really I think it was just plain smart to keep eating gelato all day long. When I was in Paris, I would try the tartes aux framboises (tarts with yummy custard or cream filling topped with fresh raspberries) every time I saw them displayed in a bakery window. And I found a favorite where I returned at least once more. :) Also, every time I look at the cone on the far right, I think the coconut is about to take a leap! This is definitely the way to do it!

In fact I just googled it to find out exactly what you were referring to! Sounds like Wisconsin is the place to go for Custard and now I want to try it! Gelato is basically like a good american ice cream that is a little softer, a little creamier and a lot better! I’ve never had frozen custard.
