What is "affogato"?
Affogato is a classic Italian dessert that combines two simple components: espresso and gelato. It is made by pouring a shot of hot espresso over a scoop of vanilla gelato or ice cream, resulting in a creamy, sweet, and refreshing dessert. The hot espresso melts the gelato slightly, creating a rich and velvety texture and a balanced flavor profile that combines the bitterness of the coffee with the sweetness of the gelato. Affogato is often served in a small glass or cup, and can be enjoyed as a dessert after a meal or as a mid-day pick-me-up. It is a popular dessert in Italy and has gained popularity around the world, with various twists on the classic recipe, such as adding chocolate or liqueur to the mix.
