First Experimental Flavor Of The Season

[whuffle.livejournal.com]

Well, its officially that time year again. The machine has come out of the closet (yeah, I know, lots of jokes there), and I've begun testing experimental flavors for this coming Baitcon. The first 2 flavors of the season: Chrysantemum Tea & Thistle Honey Sorbet and Tazo Sweet Orange Tea Sorbet. The Orange Tea Sorbet came out fantastic. I will be making this one for Baitcon and won't have to tinker with the recipe one bit. The Chrysanthemum Tea & Honey is more like ices than sorbet. It comes out hard as a rock and the flavor is rather subtle. Needs work. Next flavor up for experimentation: Ceviche Sorbet. No I'm NOT Joking. I really am going to try it. Might never make it to Baitcon, but I'm going to at least give it a shot at home.

Anyone have opinions on whether I should make the Strawberry Habanero Sorbet and the Almond Raisin Curry Ice Cream again this year?


And finally, a question: aside from adding sugar, is there any other good way to get my endlessly failed Cucumber Sorbet to come out as something other than a rock?

Hey, JB & Co., do we have a site and a date yet?

I'm hoping it's not the weekends we will be off at weddings, we have a couple. One of the weddings I can miss and send G without me as it is a friend of his, the other is family and in Virginia, I can't miss it.
