Salt & Straw Ice Cream Cookbook

Shop Notes:

What is easily my favorite ice cream base anchors this book of delightful frozen dessert recipes.  The authors give the reader a lot of room to explore, including a solid set of tips and tricks that allow you to create your own flavors from the seasonal ingredients in your region.

From the Publisher:

Using a simple five-minute base recipe, you can make the "brilliant" (Andrew Zimmern), "astonishingly good" (Ruth Reichl) flavors of the innovative "ice cream gods" (Bon Appetit) Salt ; Straw at home. 
 
Based out of Portland, Oregon, Salt ; Straw is the brainchild of two cousins, Tyler and Kim Malek, who had a vision but no recipes. They turned to their friends for advicechefs, chocolatiers, brewers, and food experts of all kindsand what came out is a super-simple base that takes five minutes to make, and an ice cream company that sees new flavors and inspiration everywhere they look.
 
Using that base recipe, you can make dozens of Salt ; Straw's most beloved, unique (and a little controversial) flavors, including Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons, Roasted Strawberry and Toasted White Chocolate, and Buttered Mashed Potatoes and Gravy.
 
But more importantly, this book reveals what they've learned, how to tap your own creativity, and how to invent flavors of your own, based on whatever you see around you. Because ice cream isn't just a thing you eat, it's a way to live.

"I originally sought out this book solely because of the Meyer Lemon Blueberry Buttermilk Custard. . . . It is the greatest ice cream flavor that's ever existed and, because it's only a seasonal flavor in their stores, I needed the recipe so I could make it whenever I wanted."Bon Appetit
