David Lebovitz also explains some techniques for making ice cream without an ice cream maker. See some ice cream inspiration here and pick up a copy of The Perfect Scoop already- once you start making ice cream, I think you'll be surprised how fun and delicious it can be. If you're intimidated, I'd recommend starting with a sorbet (Pineapple is my favorite and strawberry of course!) With the heat and amazing summer produce, there's no time to start like now (well, as soon as I clear a spot in the freezer for the bowl again- am I the only one with that problem?)
PS See some more great ice cream from these lovely ladies, but consider yourself warned- it's going to make you hungry!
Di (with homemade Magic Shell- I can't wait to try this!)
So I have 4 egg yolks in my fridge leftover from the yummy meringues. I have a Cuisinart ice cream freezer that I have hardly used. What suggestion do you have for a yummy successful ice cream experience? I will order the Perfect Scoop today. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI looked at Tracey's blog and got overwhelmed--they all look yummy.
Thanks for the shout-out, Anne! =) I admit, I went a little crazy with the ice cream posts in the past few weeks. The Perfect Scoop is an awesome book. I still love it, even though I've been spending all my time lately with my new book (Jeni's).
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful book, the cover is enough to convince me!

Love, love, love this book. And the pineapple sorbet is so good that I actually stockpile canned pineapple just for making it.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely can't go wrong with this book Anne! I have loved just about every recipe I've ever made from it (including the pineapple sorbet!). I haven't been brave enough to try some of the unusual ones yet, but one of these days. Thanks for the shout-out!
