Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream: An Artisanal Cookbook of Dairy Free and Traditional Ice Cream Recipes

Chatty cookbook with outstanding ice cream recipes. The chocolate is to die for. Unfortunately if you buy organic ingredients, it's just as expensive as buying their ice cream from the shop or by the pint. But honestly, the chocolate tastes even better fresh from your ice cream maker than it does from when you come into their shoppie for it. Also, the vegan ice cream is unbelievable. The only thing is that they call for cocoa butter, and it's impossible to get food grade cocoa butter in Brooklyn grocery stores and natural groceries. I just use extra coconut oil to keep the fat ratio the same.

I bought this several years ago and have waited until I made enough recipes to give a fair review. The orange flower water and pistachio cookie ice cream is deliciously exotic. The shortbread cookies (of which you’ll only use a handful) are wonderful and are worth making by themselves. The blueberry and sour cream ice cream is like the best blintz or danish filling you’ll ever have, though you may want to use more blueberry compote than the recipe states. My favorite so far is the palm sugar ice cream which will remind you of a ‘better’ maple walnut ice cream. I’ve added toasted pecans and walnuts to this (probably unnecessarily) for crunch one of the times I’ve made it.

It's my favorite ice cream, but I can't believe you can make it yourself. The Breville ice cream maker resting at home will finally be able to work.

Even if you're not a vegan, you will love these vegan ice cream recipes. I had to give up dairy & soy this year for allergy reasons and was disappointed with most "frozen dessert" substitutes. One night we tried Van Leeuwen at a shop and I was blown away by the quality of their vegan ice cream. Bought the book so I could enjoy the treat more often. The recipes aren't hard; you may have to special order a few ingredients but once you have them on stock it's pretty easy. I've made "real" ice cream many times in the past and these vegan recipes are straightforward and delicious.

This book will take your ice-cream skills to the next level. Delicious recipes and practical advise for perfecting ice cream. Your family and friends will be amazed by your creations. Be brave and try the goat cheese ice cream recipe. It’s amazing.

Amazing cookbook. Love love love the vegan recipes. If you follow the recipe precisely (which is easy to do because the recipes are so well written) you will end up with homemade ice cream that is the best you've ever had. Divine! Just beware that cocoa butter is hard to find -- you'll likely need to order online.

Say what you will about this book being too chatty, too this, too that but I can tell you that every recipe I've tried has been superb. Their passion fruit ice cream is one of the single best things I've eaten in my entire life. I've had the book less than a year and I've made that particular recipe at least 5 or 6 times. Yes, I had to order puree (from Amazon) but passion fruit is not native to the US and when imported the fruits are always of poor quality. Do you want a book that reads well or do you want a trove of delicious ice cream varieties that never miss the mark?

It was a bonus to learn how the company was formed and what their production standards are. Even though summer is officially over I will be making ice cream at home over the next few months knowing that the quality ingredients I use will exclude any of the items used in commercial ice cream I'd like to avoid. You will be inspired to do the same.

I love this book so far. I just got, but have flipped through it and am enjoying what I'm seeing. It has dairy and vegan recipes!!!

Very informative, clear instructions & good quality hard back book.

アイスクリームのアイディアが詰まった本。細かく丁寧に内容が書かれているので、自分で何か応用したいと思ったときにでも参考になるものだなと思っています。
