How to recognize the quality Italian ice cream?

There are simple rules to recognize a quality artisan ice cream even if you are not an expert. Entering an ice cream shop (it. gelateria) you can easily check what kind of ice cream you are going to eat.

There are some rules in order to understand the ice cream production. The quality of ice cream depends always on how it is made, on the ingredients and on the production process.

Now I will try to write about simple rules for all ice-cream lovers :)

Good ice-cream melts fast

An ice cream to melt must not have so many fat. If an ice cream would melt immediately, we can be sure that they were used good ingredients, not so many artificial things like colorants and preservatives.

Color of ice cream

A good habit  is to observe the color that has the ice cream.
The pistachio is the taste that we can easily choose for this test.
The color should be pastel green, absolutely natural and with no lime green accent.

Another taste is the strawberry.
It must be as natural as it is the color of strawberry, not red. We can also observe if it is made with real strawberries: the typical strawberry seeds. 

An ice-cream should be smooth

We cannot find any little patches of ice (of course already of a particular taste) when we eat it. A good ice-cream should be always very smooth and pleasant for our palate.
