Olive Oil Gelato

This basically tasted like vanilla. Except richer. (I got the recipe here.)

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
6 egg yolks
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. salt
Sea salt, for serving

Instructions

Using a hand mixer, beat sugar and egg yolks in a large bowl until pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Add oil in a steady stream, and continue beating until smooth and airy, about 3 minutes. Add milk, cream, vanilla, and salt, and beat until combined. Pour into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Serve with a sprinkling of sea salt, if you like.
