Have you ever wanted to make rich, creamy ice cream right from your own home? Well now you can with these amazing ice cream recipes! Making ice cream at home is so much more satisfying than buying the boring stuff at the store and the results are far tastier. This book will outline the basic methods of making ice creams and show you how to make some cool new flavors that you would never find on a grocery shelf (Chai tea? Real Mint? Blood Orange Pops? These would never be in a store!). After using these recipes a few times, you will be an ice cream and frozen dessert pro! After reading some of the labels on prepackaged ice cream, I realized, (not surprisingly), that store bought ice creams can be full of preservatives and artificial flavors. Why does a frozen dessert need preservatives?! There has to be a better way! I decided to write this book to share great ice cream recipes that everyone can make at home without any unnecessary additives. Making your own ice cream at home will also shock your taste buds- ice cream made with real mint leaves is SO much more delicious and refreshing. All of the recipes in this book are made without artificial flavors and you and your guests will be able to taste the difference- get ready for people to ask for seconds and even thirds! Many of the recipes in this book will require an ice cream maker which can easily be found and purchased online or in any cooking store. They range from inexpensive to very pricey so pick the one that is best for you. I personally use one with a bowl which gets frozen ahead of time in the freezer and is then taken out right when I am ready to churn my ice cream. Look over the directions about how to use your machine before starting your ice cream. If you don't have an ice cream machine, don't worry. This book still has many great frozen desserts for you- try the Frozen Yogurt Berry Pops, a healthy frozen snack that is sure to please! Because all of the recipes in this book need to be frozen, the 'Active Time', or time it will take you to actively be working on these recipes, is what is included at the top of each page. Each dessert will need time to freeze so keep that in mind. But that's enough about the minute detail. Get your heavy cream and sugar out and let's make some ice cream!

“Ice cream perfection in a word: Jeni’s.” –Washington Post James Beard Award Winner: Best Baking and Dessert Book of 2011! At last, addictive flavors, and a breakthrough method for making creamy, scoopable ice cream at home, from the proprietor of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, whose artisanal scooperies in Ohio are nationally acclaimed. Now, with her debut cookbook, Jeni Britton Bauer is on a mission to help foodies create perfect ice creams, yogurts, and sorbets—ones that are every bit as perfect as hers—in their own kitchens.

Filled with irresistible color photographs, this delightful cookbook contains 100 of Jeni’s jaw-droppingly delicious signature recipes—from her Goat Cheese with Roasted Cherries to her Queen City Cayenne to her Bourbon with Toasted Buttered Pecans. Fans of easy-to-prepare desserts with star quality will scoop this book up. How cool is that?

With more than 100 recipes for ice cream flavors and revolutionary mix-ins from a James Beard-nominated pastry chef, Hello, My Name is Ice Cream explains not only how to make amazing ice cream, but also the science behind the recipes so you can understand ice cream like a pro. Hello, My Name is Ice Cream is a combination of three books every ice cream lover needs to make delicious blends: 1) an approchable, quick-start manual to making your own ice cream, 2) a guide to help you think about how flavors work together, and 3) a dive into the science of ice cream with explanations of how it forms, how air and sugars affect texture and flavor, and how you can manipulate all of these factors to create the ice cream of your dreams. The recipes begin with the basics—super chocolately chocolate and Tahitian vanilla—then evolve into more adventurous infusions, custards, sherbets, and frozen yogurt styles. And then there are the mix-ins, simple treats elevated by Cree's pastry chef mind, including chocolate chips designed to melt on contact once you bite them and brownie bits that crunch.

Using a simple five-minute base recipe, you can make the “brilliant” (Andrew Zimmern), “astonishingly good” (Ruth Reichl) flavors of the innovative “ice cream gods” (Bon Appétit) Salt & Straw at home. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE SEASON BY Eater • Delish • Epicurious Based out of Portland, Oregon, Salt & Straw is the brainchild of two cousins, Tyler and Kim Malek, who had a vision but no recipes. They turned to their friends for advice—chefs, chocolatiers, brewers, and food experts of all kinds—and what came out is a super-simple base that takes five minutes to make, and an ice cream company that sees new flavors and inspiration everywhere they look. Using that base recipe, you can make dozens of Salt & Straw’s most beloved, unique (and a little controversial) flavors, including Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons, Roasted Strawberry and Toasted White Chocolate, and Buttered Mashed Potatoes and Gravy. But more importantly, this book reveals what they’ve learned, how to tap your own creativity, and how to invent flavors of your own, based on whatever you see around you. Because ice cream isn’t just a thing you eat, it’s a way to live. Praise for Salt & Straw Ice Cream Cookbook “Making ice cream at home is already enough of a mental hurdle. . . . Salt & Straw is out to prove us wrong with a new cookbook . . . making crazy ice cream flavors is more than doable—it’s addictive.”—Portland Monthly “The approachable, you-can-do-this nature of the book should be all that home cooks need to try it out.”—Eater “I originally sought out this book solely because of the Meyer Lemon Blueberry Buttermilk Custard. . . . It is the greatest ice cream flavor that’s ever existed and, because it’s only a seasonal flavor in their stores, I needed the recipe so I could make it whenever I wanted.”—Bon Appétit “A cookbook dedicated to ice cream? Yes, please. This is essential reading for Salt & Straw fans.”—Food & Wine “Few of America’s many ice cream makers are as seasonally minded and downright creative as Salt & Straw co-founder Tyler Malek.”—GrubStreet
