Question: What is the difference between sherbet, sorbet, and gelato!?
Just curious about it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Sherbet (Soda powder; Etymology: Turkish & Persian; Turkish ?erbet, from Persian & Urdu ????,Hindi sharbat, from Arabic sharba drink) (British and American English) historically was a cool effervescent or iced fruit soft drink!. The meaning, spelling and pronunciation have fractured between different countries!. It is usually spelled "sherbet", but a common corruption changes this to "sherbert"!.

In the US, sherbet is legally defined by the FDA as a frozen desert having between 1% and 2% milk product, whereas ice cream is any similar product that has more, and sorbet is popularly seen as having none!.

Sorbet is a frozen dessert made from sweetened water flavored with iced fruit (typically juice or puree), chocolate, wine, and/or liqueur!. The origins of sorbet can be traced to a Middle Eastern drink charbet, made of sweetened fruit juice and water!. The term "sherbet" / "charbet" is derived from Turkish: ?erbat/?erbet, "sorbet", which in turn comes from the Arabic ????? sharbāt meaning "drink(s)" or "juice!." [1][2]!.

Gelato, or the plural Gelati, is Italian ice cream made from milk and sugar, combined with other flavorings!. The gelato ingredients (after an optional pasteurization) are frozen while stirring to break up ice crystals as they form!. Like high-end ice cream, gelato generally has less than 35% air, resulting in a dense and extremely flavourful product!.

Gelato is typically made with fresh fruit or other ingredients such as chocolate (pure chocolate, flakes, chips, etc!.), nuts, small confections or cookies, or biscuits!. Gelato made with water and without dairy ingredients is also known as sorbetto (also known as sorbet)!. Traditionally, milk based gelato originated in northern Italy, while the fruit and water based sorbetto came from the warmer parts of southern Italy!.
