Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Mint ice cream

    • michalow on July 02, 2017

      Best with oreo-like cookies stirred in, obviously.

  • Coffee ice cream

    • michalow on July 02, 2017

      Acidity of the coffee curdled the ice cream base. A spectacular failure.

  • Blackberry sorbet

    • Nancith on June 16, 2015

      This sorbet has great flavor, not overly sweet. Did not use the optional liqueur. Relatively easy to make, unless you don't want seeds, in which case it is necessary to press it through a strainer, which is a bit of a pain. Used frozen garden berries from, I hate to say, 2013, but they still made a fine sorbet.

  • Cinnamon ice cream

    • Sparrowspetal on December 27, 2021

      Smooth and creamy, lasted in the bowl until eaten. I think it was the cornstarch that helped this attribute.

  • Chocolate "lower-fat" ice cream

    • averythingcooks on February 24, 2018

      This version of chocolate ice cream won the approval of the ice cream hound AND helped use up some ingredients that had been hanging around. I will admit that "lower fat" probably doesn't mean that much when you consider the amount of sugar. It has a rich flavour and very smooth texture. Success number 3 from this book!

  • Chocolate ice cream

    • averythingcooks on November 06, 2017

      This was the first recipe I tried when the new ice cream machine arrived. I chilled the custard overnight and the result was a super smooth, RICH (other wise why bother ??) chocolate flavour. The ice cream hound in the house (aka my husband) loved it.

  • Vanilla ice cream, Philadelphia style

    • averythingcooks on November 13, 2017

      I tried this for ice cream attempt #2 (after a successful chocolate version last weekend ). It is a different style ( i.e. Philadelphia style ) than my first egg based custard attempt but wow - I really liked this. I love plain vanilla Ice cream but I amped this up some more with smashed Skor bar chunks stirred in at end - really delicious.
