Substitutes for Soy Lecithin in gelato

Soy lecithin is a soybean-derived emulsifier composed almost entirely of phospholipids and residual soybean oil. In gelato it destabilizes fat and stabilizes the water/fat interface, promoting a smoother, drier, more emulsified body without contributing sweetness or affecting the freezing point.
