Message: <blockquote data-quote="lizdeluz" data-source="post: 866346" data-attributes="member: 32108">I based my ice cream on Trudi Deakin's 'Eat Fat' recipe.  I hasten to add that there is nothing wrong with her recipe!!   The texture created by cream and egg yolks is very nice.  However, I tried not to include any sweeteners, instead I added nuts, blueberries, butter, coffee, and vanilla.  But my killer ingredient was ..... salt!  I wasn't hypo, so I have no excuse!   I would love to see the recipes you mention and how you tweak down the carbs  - as this is my current mission.  I'm a bit anti-sweetener and so any sweet desserts are difficult.I think my ice cream might have worked if I'd added 70% or 85% chocolate instead of salt!!  Why salt?  Well, I was trying to caramelise the nuts in butter but without sugar of course it didn't really happen!! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Thank you for your reply!</blockquote>
