Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream

$40 · Offered by Kitchen Arts & Letters

This is a sophisticated, opinionated, flavor-focused ice cream guide from a small group of NYC shops with the same name as the title of the book. Nicholas Morgenstern is the kind of ice cream obsessive who’ll serve four kinds of vanilla—each one with a reason. In this playful but exacting guide, he explains that eggs dull flavor, how to avoid the wrong salt, and why great ice cream opens the door to wildly imaginative combinations. This is not a book for the shortcut-seeker. But if you’re ready to lose yourself in ice cream, you’ll find a world of flavor waiting. Yes, you’ll make your own marshmallow fluff and hot fudge. You’ll also learn the difference between caramel and butterscotch and then explore flavors like: Pistachio black currant Coconut espresso (vegan) Banana curry Pineapple salted egg yolk Cardamom lemon jam Raspberry dark chocolate French fry Adventurous. Detailed. Passionate. Hardcover. Color photographs throughout.
