Great recipes
chock full of fun ice cream recipes to make. I have and will again suggest this book to anyone interested in making ice cream at home.
I suggest it.
gelato cook book
I got a gelato maker. Included with the gelato maker was a very simple cook book. I also ordered this cookbook online.
This gelato cook book is a little high brow - real vanilla beans, real mint leaves, shaved dark chocolate, etc. Pulllleeeeassszzzzeeee!
However, I found if I read this book and the very simple book I got the jist of what I was aiming for. So, I don't regret buying the book. My advice is though, that if you get this book, also get a more basic guide. Sometimes you will have to shoot the difference between the two.
Don't overthink it
The pickings for gelato books are VERY slim and this one has some good recipes, though some ingredients are hard to get. The obsessing over the perfect temperature for storing gelato seems wildly unwarranted and prevents people from trying to make it at home. The easiest way to deal with gelato which has gotten overly hard in the freezer is the same as dealing with ice cream. Put it in bowels, let it sit on the counter 10 min to soften then mix with a spoon before serving. This is a 3 star book but I gave it 4 due to the paucity of good alternatives.
