How to Make Ricotta Gelato With Blackberry Sauce
- In a medium saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Cook until the blackberries have softened and released their juices, about 8-10 minutes.
- Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids.
- Let the blackberry sauce cool completely.
- In a blender or food processor, combine ricotta cheese, sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually 20-30 minutes).
- Once churned, transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours to allow it to firm up further.
- Serve the Ricotta Gelato topped with the cooled blackberry sauce. Garnish with fresh blackberries and a sprinkle of lemon zest (optional).
