Stracciatella Gelato is kind of like American chocolate chip ice cream, except completely different. Instead of the chips and sometimes chunks you find in American product, Stracciattella has fine bits of chocolate throughout, which results in a great texture with just the slightest crunch in every bite. This is achieved by drizzling in a thin stream of melted chocolate during the final stages of churning, which hardens on contact and gets broken up as it churns.

It has gotten so that I cannot have a barbecue without making this fragrant and tasty
chicken dish on the grill. Everybody expects it, and there is never a piece of chicken or a drop

lot of flare ups, I like to use the technique described below (we call it the flash-pan technique).
I can't even begin to describe the excitement and buzz in the air when the guests see us coming out
of the kitchen to the grill with the hot pans.
