Do you like crunchy bits in your gelato?

Cut some hazelnut in half, then into quarters. Cut each quarter in 3 pieces. Each piece should be about 5mm in size.

Before removing the gelato from the gelato maker and while the machine is still going, add into the container some chopped hazelnut and let it mix for a few seconds.

 

If you prefer caramelised hazelnuts.

Put water (10ml.) and sugar (75gr.) into a small pan and bring to a boil to make a syrup.

Pour 150gr of chopped hazelnut into the syrup and stir continuously until the sugar has caramelised. The syrup will crystallise and look white at first, but will eventually turn into caramel as you continue to stir.

Once caramelised, take off the heat, add 15gr. of butter, a pinch of salt and mix until incorporated evenly.

 

Cool and divide into pieces:

Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and let cool completely. While the mixture is still hot, try to divide the pieces as much as possible with the spatula.

Once the caramelised hazenuts are completely cool, rub the larger chunks between your hands to break them up into individual pieces.

These caramelised crunchy roasted hazelnut pieces take chopped hazelnuts to the next level with a deep roasty caramel flavour with a glassy and satisfying crunch.

They are an amazing topping for gelato, mousse, or even just on its own.
