 Disappointed June 23, 2008

Initially, I was very excited for this recipe book, but after reading it, I realized that none of the recipes with eggs had you cook them. - just mix the raw eggs and put them in the ice cream maker. No thanks. Don't think I will be able to use any of the base recipes. May use the interesting flavors with different bases from a different cookbook.
 Nearly perfect recipe book June 20, 2008

I have a number of ice cream recipe books, and I also have my mother's custard-style ice cream recipe from way back. While I love custard-style ice cream, it is a lot of work, and sometimes I just want to throw together some ingredients and toss them into my MUSSO LUSSINO 4080 (the best ice cream maker there is for the home). That's where this cookbook shines. The recipes are great, and very fast.
One caution: Most of the recipes use raw eggs. I personally don't care, since I buy only locally produced, organic eggs from free-range, non-debeaked chickens. I figure that how happy any animal is, whether human or beast, makes a huge difference in its health, and so far I have never had any problems.
However, if you have concerns, you can use pasteurized egg products. Or you can use an excellent alternative cookbook, The Ultimate Ice Cream Book, which has many recipes that don't require eggs at all. Just be aware that eggs make a big (positive) difference in taste over recipes that don't use eggs.

Nice collection of recipes for my ice cream maker since KitchenAid doesn't include alot and we love Ben and Jerry's just figured I could make my own. Recipes are perfect! I make them in the KitchenAid ice cream makerKitchenAid KICA0WH Ice Cream Maker Attachment and save money by making my own for a larger group - those little pints don't go far with a group.

I really enjoyed reading this book before trying even one recipe. This is the best recipe for Ice Cream that I have ever tried. Once you know the basics, you can relax and enjoy making ice cream. I don't wear my self out breaking eggs whipping whites and blending in order. I just toss the ingrdients blend and freeze. I haven't seen a bad batch since the time I used too much butter for butter pecan. Even with that "gummy" batch, I received compliments. Ain't that what its all about?
Great for a small ice cream maker! May 29, 2008

I bought this book with my Cuisinart 1 1/2-qt ice cream maker. I highly suggest doing this as well. All the full recipes fit perfectly and they can easily be halved to make just a small amount of ice cream. The only drawback for me is that they don't have frozen yogurt recipes in this book so I'll have to figure it out some other way. However, the ice cream is amazing, just like from the store, and the sorbets are good, too.
