Book Reviews of Vice Cream: Over 70 Sinfully Delicious Dairy-Free Delights
Book Review: Great starting point
Summary: 4 Stars
What I love about this book:
~Proves you don't have to suffer an ice-cream-less existence just because you've given up dairy
~Gives great, healthful alternatives to sugar
~Lots of recipes to make you drool
What I don't love:
-The author is nit-picky about a lot of ingredients/details (i.e. organic cashews, alcohol-free vanilla flavor and alcohol-free almond flavor, "Sugar Loaf" pineapple, etc). Making suggestions to use these things is fine, but the book makes it seem mandatory. My husband & I do not use alcohol-free vanilla flavor nor do we use whole vanilla beans or og cashews, because the only alcohol-free vanilla flavor we can find contains sugar and vanilla beans and og cashews cost a small fortune. We don't think the alcohol inhibits the freezing enough to worry about it. And what is "Sugar Loaf" pineapple anyway? Never seen it.
-Doesn't give alternatives to things like "fresh coconut." What a pain! We buy a good quality canned coconut milk (Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk Brand is great and in this case we do find that the organic version is noticeably better) and have made ice-cream as good as Coconut Bliss.*
*Coconut Bliss: A coconut milk ice-cream made in Oregon, I don't know if it's available elsewhere, but it's super yummy).
-More cashew recipes than coconut milk recipes. We prefer coconut based ice-cream much better than the cashew ones, but you may disagree.
So in short use this book with a willingness to experiment & deviate from the ingredient lists. We're glad to have it and use it as reference and for ideas frequently, but it's no bible of vegan ice-cream. That's for sure.
PS. So far, the Chai is our favorite! We combine both cashews and coconut milk to make it and go heavy on the nutmeg (here fresh ground is best but the stuff in a jar is good too) and allspice and add vanilla. We want to try new flavors, but we keep going back to this one!
