i received this new cookbook, and while excitedly paging through it, I found this recipe, and I had very ingredient needed. What is the probability? Of course, I had to start making this ice cream immediately!
This ice cream is very unique and absolutely delicious. Grainy from the guava pulp, sweet, creamy from the ricotta with a touch of heat at the end palate. I cannot get enough of this ice cream.
I was justifying to myself why I needed an ice cream maker at home. This is exactly the reason why, unique flavors, less sugar, and of course, no crap additives, and ice cream that is so much better that most commercial brands. This single recipe probably highlights all of these points. Check out this blog for other fantastic ice cream, sorbet, frozen yogurt and gelato recipes.
I own quite a few cookbooks written by Sri Owen. She is the guru of Asian cooking, Indonesian, Thai and contemporary flavors from Asia. Her recipe for Laksa is phenomenal. Like her other cookbooks, I love this book, the recipes, and the presentation.
