Book Reviews of The Best Ice Cream Maker Cookbook EverBook Review: Not what I expected Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this book based on other reviews, but was disappointed when I received it. I really prefer to see some pictures when looking at a cookbook and there are none in here. I also did not realize every recipe in the book requires cooking before making the ice cream. I don't want to take the extra time to mix and cook,cool, and then make ice cream. I have returned the book for that very reason. If you have the time for the extra steps you might like this book.
Book Review: Lots of Low fat recipes Summary: 4 Stars
For the most part I like the recipes in this book. The only problems - not a single picture. I think all cookbooks should have lots of pictures. Also for many of the low fat recipes, she recommends that you keep them only for 4 hours. I don't know about you, but I can't eat a whole batch of ice cream in a sitting. I kept the ice cream longer and the low fat varieties tend to get hard. The sorbet and granita recipes are great.
Book Review: Pretty much the same as others Summary: 2 Stars
I have bought several books on ice cream making and have been making lots of ice cream since Christmastime 2009. I have been working to perfect a recipe for sugar free ice cream and found nothing of assistance. I have found lots of recipes online and lots of assistance in unpublished sources, but very little in the books.
Perhaps when I have perfected my own recipes, maybe I'll have to write my own book.
Book Review: Don't Waste Your Time! Summary: 1 Stars
This is the worst book of ice cream maker recipes I have come across. it Includes recipes that are not complete such as the "Enlightened Vanilla Ice Cream" recipe that calls for only cream, sugar and vanilla extract. I believe they left out a major ingriedient....maybe some egg whites or yolks to give it thickness. I tried this recipe and ended up with 100% liquid. What a waste of time!
Book Review: ENCYCLOPEDIA FOR ICE CREAM Summary: 5 Stars
A MUST HAVE FOR YOUR ICE CREAM COOKBOOK LIBRARY. I LOVE ALL THE RECIPES BUT ESPECIALLY THE CHAPTER DEDICATED TO "THE LIGHTER SIDE"-YOU CAN HAVE YOUR ICE CREAM AND YOUR REDUCED CALORIES, TOO. GOOD REFERENCE COOKBOOK. THIS BOOK HAS A RECIPE FOR EVERY TASTE YOU CAN THINK OF PLUS SAUCES,GRANITAS, FROZEN YOGURTS, SORBETS AND AN ASSORTMENT OF FROZEN DESSERTS.
