Ten Speed: Crown. rev. ed. Mar. 2018. 272p. photos. index. ISBN 9780399580314. $24.99; ebk. ISBN 9780399580321. COOKING
COPY ISBN
An instant classic when it was first published, Lebovitz's work remains required reading for ice cream aficionados. This revised edition features an updated design and a dozen new recipes for daring, assertive flavors (e.g., negroni slush, bacon and bourbon ice cream, labneh ice cream with pistachio-sesame brittle). Excellent as the new content is, there's not enough of it to merit replacing a functional copy, especially for those on a budget. For libraries that don't yet own the book, now's the perfect time to snatch it up.
VERDICT Essential additions to ice cream and frozen dessert collections, either edition will do.
