I have just made a batch of ice cream and ice crystals have formed is there anyway I can get rid of them once they have formed.

Thanks

Russell

From Russell: If you have a juicer like a GreenStar then you can use the homogenising blank plate to do that. Simply cut the ice-cream up to chunks that will fit in the shute and then pass them through the juicer with the blank (homogenising) plate on, then re-freeze.

I noticed in a couple of your recipies it calls for melted cacao butter…but how do you melt it and still call it raw? Are you putting it in the dehydrator…in a sunny window…or just plain heating it in a pan?

Other than that…just thought Id say youre adorable!

From Russell: Thanks :-)

I like to melt cacao butter in the dehydrator but for speed you can just melt it in a bowl within a bowl of hot water, being sure not to let the cacao butter get too hot.

Hi Russell,
Thank-you for such an inspiring site (and furthering my resolve to visit the UK which will include a course with you:)
I am presently 100% sugar free and can substitute agave nicely with water and stevia(+ vanilla/cinnamon) but am unsure as to how to substitute dates,figs,apricots, etc.(the thicker stuff). I am guessing with coconut butter but would love your oh so amazing input/advice.
With Gratitude,
Nicolle

From Russell: Thanks :-) It depends which recipes you’re doing. the best advice I woudl give is to make date paste by processing 1 cup soft dates with 1/2 a cup of water or orange juice and then use that as a substitute.
