Salt and Straw Ice Cream Cookbook

Powell's City of Books 1005 W Burnside Street, Portland, OR, United States

Salt & Straw is the ice cream brainchild of two cousins, Tyler and Kim Malek, who had a vision but no recipes. But that’s what made them great. In Salt and Straw Ice Cream Cookbook (Clarkson Potter), Tyler Malek reveals what they’ve learned, how to tap your own creativity, and how to invent flavors of your own. Malek will be joined in conversation by Karen Brooks, food critic for Portland Monthly.
