Book Reviews of Perfect Scoop: Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accompaniments
Book Review: Get to the recipe already!
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought a new ice cream maker and wanted a book to compliment it. I debated between this book and Ben & Jerry's latest edition. I went with this book based on all the great reviews. I have to say I was greatly disappointed. The author goes on and on about how he discovered this recipe or what this recipe means or whatEVER! I just wanted to make some ice cream already! Most of the recipes are, well, weird. Who eats some of this stuff? The book is very nice quality too - too nice. It belongs in a library, not a kitchen. I guess I'm just a Ben & Jerry's girl afterall.

Summary of Perfect Scoop: Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accompaniments
Ripe seasonal fruits. Fragrant vanilla, toasted nuts, and spices. Heavy cream and bright liqueurs. Chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate. Every luscious flavor is grist for the chill in David Lebovitz's ecstatic guide to the pleasures of homemade ice creams, sorbets, granitas, and more. With an emphasis on intense and sophisticated flavors, an international flair, and a bountiful helping of seasoned technique, this collection of frozen treats ranges from classic and comforting (Chocolate Sorbet) to contemporary and cutting edge (Mojito Granita). Spilling over with scrumptious sauces, crunchy toppings, and surprising mix-ins, THE PERFECT SCOOP transforms simple ice cream into a knockout dessert.Desserts Books
