Anybody who loves ice cream knows there's nothing better
than a scoopful of homemade. Nothing, that is, except star
pastry chef Emily Luchetti's fabulous recipes for making
your own. This gorgeous cookbook doesn't just have all the
crowd-pleasers, it's bursting with flavors you'll never find
in the store. Even better, because sometimes a spoon just
isn't accompaniment enough, there's a host of beautiful
dessert recipes featuring ice cream in all its lusciousness.
There's chocolate, strawberry, and butter pecan; there's
orange-cardamom, root beer granita, and pomegranate sorbet. There's popsicles, floats, and parfaits. And then there's
Coffee Meringues with Coconut Ice Cream; Blackberry Sorbet
Filled Peaches; and Chocolate Crepes with Peppermint Ice
Cream. But wait...There's Shortcake and Rum Raisin Ice Cream
Sandwiches; Sauternes Ice Cream and Apricot Sherbet Cake;
and Chocolate Cupcakes Stuffed with Pistachio Ice Cream. Aficionados needn't worry if their tastebuds are more deluxe
than their ice cream maker because all of these treats can
be made with a modest handcrank model or the fanciest
machine. And to top it all off, there's a chapter on making
sauces from scratch and a handy chart that lists the ice
cream flavors alphabetically for easy reference. The reason
homemade ice cream tastes so much better than store-bought
is because you use fresher ingedients and less air. That
means it's richer, creamier, and tongue-tingling with
flavor. The reason Emily's recipes taste so good is because
she's a genius when it comes to desserts. If proof were
needed, ice-cream fans need look no further than these mmm,
mmm, mmm, melt-in-your-mouth recipes.
