Editorial Review: Product Description: The Perfect Scoop - Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accompaniments by David Lebovitz"Ripe seasonal fruits. Fragrant vanilla, toasted nuts, and spices. Heavy cream and bright liqueurs. Chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate. Every luscious flavo Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good, But Not EssentialI should start this review with the warning that I am a professional pastry cook and, therefore, am spoiled by stabilized recipes and a very, very expensive industrial ice cream machine. Compared to what I make at work, the ice cream produced by Lebovitz's recipes leave a bit to be desired. However, I happily accept the limitations of my home kitchen and, with that in mind, can recommend The Perfect Scoop although there are probably better books out there. Since purchasing the book I've ... Read More Rating:  - Beautifully produced, but doesn't taste as good as Ben & Jerry's recipesThere's no doubt that the Lebovitz book is beautifully photographed and has lovely printing, but I've been surprised that the ice cream recipes don't taste as good as the ones in the old (1987) and crudely-printed classic competitor Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book. (This book has no connection with the current commercial Ben & Jerry's chain, it reflects the artisan-style beginnings more than two decades ago.) I carefully followed comparable ice cream recipes from the two books, using ... Read More Rating:  - A Kiwi's perspectiveA new cookbook that makes you instantly want to try at least a dozen recipes is an exhilarating find. Perhaps it was the thirty-degree day, when I first paged through David Lebovitz's vast selection of frozen delights, that spurred my excitement about where to start. Kiwifruit sorbet? Strawberry frozen yoghurt? Tiramisù ice cream? All were a cinch to make and impressed guests. Pastry chef Mr Lebovitz - ex Chez Panisse in California, now based in Paris - covers everything a home cook needs to know about ... Read More Rating: - This book should be included with every ice cream makerWhat can I say? "Perfect Scoop" will make you look like a superstar! I've been playing with this book for months and to date, I've tried over 1/3 of the recipes. I've used this book more than any other in my collection. The photos are enticing and the recipes are written in a clear, approachable manner. David sets you up for success. My top 3 favorites: gianduja, Vietnamese coffee, and malted milk. Rating: - something for everyoneThis is a fantastic book on ice creams. I am a pastry chef at a restaurant that makes all of its ice creams and sorbets in-house. I can tell you that all of the recipes I have made from this book have been wonderful and come out perfectly without fail. I had contemplated on buying this earlier in the summer to give our sorbet list a facelift and procrastinated until early fall... let's just say I am kicking myself for waiting for so long! There really is something for everyone in this book, from simple to ... Read More
