Flavors...

[jbsegal.livejournal.com]

Folks? Why are different and experimental flavors a bad thing? Why are they a sign of a moral failing?

I like them. I encourage them.

I think that our recent move towards shrinking the batch size is a good thing, but I think that creativity in frozen dessert making is good.

Here's a really scary concoction: Start with a green colored ice cream. Oh, Avocado will do. Separately, moosh up a banana into little blobs (not into a cream, but more of a chunky lumpy mess). Also, separately, overcook some rice until the rice is very soft. After the avocado ice cream is made, and before it's packed away, mix in the mooshed up banana and overcooked rice. Mix in, and pack away.

Eat later.

Name this after the ingredients: Banana Avocado Rice Fantasy!
But to be short, just use the initials (grin)

You forgot the carrots.

Done. Look for it at this year's event.

Oooh, someone else is going to make an avocado flavor this year? Hmm, I should do something else... maybe a second attempt at a date flavor.

Nah, I'll leave it to you since I know you enjoy it. I did an avocado flavor a couple of years back and it was okay, but I find I enjoy them more as savories than sweets.

which are the more flavorful/fatty avocados? florida, or california, or ??? and how does one tell by looking?

i've bought a couple and they were EH, and bought some others, and they were mouth gasms. same place, same area, LOOKED about the same to me, same ripeness... something was off there.

Perhaps honey date. Pr date and pistachio. Or honey and figs?

[cos]

Honey date was what I tried a few years ago, but it didn't work as well as it should. I think if I try it again I'll make a date syrup first.

[whuffle.livejournal.com]

I'd say you should give it another try using a syrup.

Hey, here's another thought for you, Pomegranate and Fig or Pomegranate and Caramel. I think the first of these would have to be a sorbet.

there's actually a mock ice cream made with cooked rice that is beyond fabulous.
