This week I made two of the recipes from Salt and Straw’s newest cookbook. The Birthday Cake and Blackberry and the Vanilla Poached Peach Gelato.
The Birthday Cake and Blackberry is so fun!! The crumble was so easy to make and it would be easy to alter the recipe to make a chocolate crumble or snickerdoodle crumble. I used Bonne Maman blackberry preserves- they have whole berries in them!
For the Vanilla Poached Peach Gelato I like how the lightness of the base really lets the fruit flavor shine through. I’m imagining using this as layers in a cake to make a fruity ice cream cake or a wonderful ice cream sandwich. Does anyone else notice that it does freeze a bit icy?

Ooh, I need to pick up the new one. I have the first cookbook and really love it. Birthday Cake and Blackberry is one of my favorite flavors they have.
