The answer to a prayer!
May 7 2009
By Catherine Ryan Hyde
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
In addition to being allergic to dairy, I also have to avoid wheat (and corn and soy). So the closest thing I've had to a dessert in years is sorbet, and even then I feel guilty about all the white sugar.
I've made two of Cathe Olson's ice cream recipes so far: coconut, by hand (before I had an ice cream maker, and it really wasn't very hard to do) and chocolate...both fabulous. Not only am I not allergic to them, I don't even have to feel guilty. Just a little agave as a sweetener, all natural, full of food value...it's like a pleasant dream I would have.
(Note: I love coconut milk, but thought it would change the experience of chocolate ice cream. Not so much. It just tasted like chocolate...very rich and creamy...and I was not aware of a coconut base.)
I've been using almond milk instead of soy and it works wonderfully, I highly recommend this book for anybody who wants to get away from dairy...and I think many people might be happier and healthier (and less stuffy) if they tried it.

Delicious and Healthy!

The person who gave this book a bad review is not up on the latest research on coconut products. Coconut is anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral. The main saturated fat that it contains, lauric acid, is also found in mother's milk and has been shown to promote brain development and bone health. Coconut fat has medium chain triglycerides which burn fat instead of storing it. The recipes in this book are delicious and healthy. I just made the cherry-vanilla ice cream using fresh cherries and it was awesome!

These recipes are so easy to make and taste great! So far I've made the blueberry frozen yogurt, the strawberry ice cream and the mango yogurt pops. I can't wait to try more! The healthy ingredients make it even more wonderful!
