The Perfect Scoop: Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accessories: member book reviews (Single Review Display)

(7 reviews)

I love David Lebovitz's recipes. I much prefer egg-custard based ice cream. I've made several of his recipes. Unfortunately, his salted Caramel Ice Cream recipe is not in this cookbook (but it's on my blog). It's one of the best ice creams I've ever made. Buttery, salty, creamy... perfection! The only thing that surprised me is that David's legal team contacted me and asked me to remove the recipe for strawberry sorbet! I was so surprised, as this isn't exactly a rocket science recipe. Strawberry sorbet is pretty basic... fruit puree, lemon juice and liquor to keep ice crystals from forming. C'est la vie, I just changed a few words and his Legal Eagles have left me alone. That's a personal thing, but the man can make desserts. No hard feelings, I continue to love this book.
