Is it just me or does "artisan" ice cream seem to be one of the next big things? It's nearly summer, so it only makes sense that people are starting out their old machines to try a new recipe or taking a trip to a local scoop shop.
I'm on the bandwagon now too...after hearing such great things about Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home cookbook and scoop shops in Ohio, I had to check it out. I got the cookbook from the library, gathered the ingredients, and set out to make a simple vanilla bean ice cream, a true litmus test for any ice cream recipe.
Let me make something very clear: it doesn't matter if you're on a diet or a diehard Breyer's fan or whatever the excuse may be. You must try this ice cream! It is hands down, the best ice cream I've ever had. It's super creamy and rich, full of flavor (the cream, the vanilla, the sweetness), and simply heaven in scoop form!
