📝 Preparation Steps
1
Combine the heavy cream, milk, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to just below boiling, whisking regularly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
2
Combine the blood orange juice with the cornstarch in a small bowl. Whisk to dissolve the cornstarch and then stir the cornstarch slurry into the saucepan. Return the pan to the heat and simmer over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens.

3
Refrigerate overnight or chill the mixture over an ice bath for ⏱️ 2 hours until it is very cold.
4
Transfer the mixture to a pre-chilled ice cream maker and churn into gelato. When the gelato has finished churning, add the orange zest and let the ice cream maker turn just a few more times to stir the zest into the gelato (or use a spatula to swirl the zest into the mixture by hand).
5
Serve soft serve style or transfer to a container and freeze for at least ⏱️ 2 hours for a harder, scoopable texture.
