The weather is warming up and what better way to take advantage of it then by making gelato. The flavor of Mascarpone is similar to that of cream cheese but a little less tart. Strawberries and balsamic vinegar have a natural affinity. Macerating the strawberries in the vinegar enhances the fruit's flavor. Feel free to add other berries such as blueberries or raspberries.
