Amanatto and Gelato Are Both Science: From the Lab to the Confectionery Workshop

The market for amanatto, Japan's traditional candied beans, has shrunk by 30% in ten years, and only four shops remain in Kyoto. I took over my family's 100-year-old business, and today I make gelato from beans to bring amanatto to the world. The temperature you simmer beans at, the formulation - push far enough and it is all science. The way of thinking I gained through research carried straight over into confectionery. This is a story of the twelve years since I left the lab.
