The Perfect Scoop: Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accompaniments Review
My wife and I have a Cuisinart ice cream maker that we use regularly for both personal desserts and when we have guest over to enjoy. I am always looking for a new ice cream book that has a few outstanding recipes. We have worked our way through most of a Williams Sonoma book and a gelato book I came across somewhere that had some fun recipes.
I found this book on Amazon and can't rave enough about it. It gives very good instructions in the first section on how to get the basics right like making a nice custard for your ice cream base, it goes over ingredients and then it gets to the fun stuff! This is a book that will satisfy both folks who are just starting to make ice cream and those that have been doing it for years.
I suggest trying the fresh peach, the rocky road, the cheesecake and a few of the berry recipes just to get your feet wet. After you get going you really won't want to stop trying the many recipes unless you find your belt is getting a little tight. I like that the author isn't afraid to be creative and uses ingredients like sour cream, beer (like Guinness Stout), tea and whiskey just to name a few.
I would not hesitate to get this book but please remember not to be afraid to experiment on your own too. Enjoy!
