Description

This book traces the origins and history of ice cream and ices from their appearance on the dinner tables of aristocratic families in Europe and America in the 1800s, to the emergence of sweet sellers and ice cream parlours in the 20th century. The introduction explains how to use equipment, such as ice cream machines, moulds and scoops, as well as covering key ingredients, such as milk, cream, eggs, chocolate and vanilla. The coverage of basic techniques demonstrates how to make, freeze, decorate and serve ice creams and sorbets. Experiment with different flavours, learn to layer and ripple, use moulds of different shapes and sizes, and make baskets, cones, biscuits and ice bowls. Eleven chapters containing recipes for traditional vanilla, chocolate, toffee and coffee ice cream, as well as fruit and nut combinations.
