Lemon Gelato

    Share

    This dessert is light and refreshing, with a lemony tang. It is made with the flesh of a young coconut, also called Thai coconut, which is found in health food stores and Asian markets. Look for coconut pre-cut into a white cylinder with a pointed top. Because these coconuts are young, their flesh is soft and creamy.
