Stupid and gross. Trying to make foods imitate other foods like broccamole.

Try it:
Broccoli forgets only
Chick Peas
Fat free low sodium sour cream or yogurt.

I don’t know the exact recipe but, it exactly tastes like crap not guacamole.

Very unpleasant tasting....

I made garlic ice cream awhile back. Interesting, but nothing I’d do again. In retrospect, it seems a sorry thing to mess with something so perfect already.

There are very few things that taste better than fresh morels fried in a bit of butter! If they can make morel ice cream taste that good, I’m all for it. BTW, last Spring was lousy for collecting them. I was pretty much skunked here in Northern Ohio.

I’ve had jalapeno ice cream, it’s pretty awesome. Do it right and anything can be a fine frozen treat. Especially with all the varieties of mushrooms, that could be a whole line on its own.

I guess I’m the only one here who thinks that could be good. Of course, a few years ago, it was shocking for most to think of putting salt on ice cream but now salted caramel is one of the more popular flavors. I’ve had a huitlacoche dessert empanada before so I know fungus can make a great dessert.

...garlic ice cream. It used to be my signature last date dessert.

Was it your last date dessert on purpose, or did it just turn out that way and you noticed a trend?

I served a balut as an appetizer, and had durian for the fruit course. You do the math. ;)

Watch Iron Chef! They make ice cream out of SEAFOOD. Last night they had an Italian chef who owns 10 restaurants, challenging one of the regular Iron Chef’s who made an ice cream from Bay Scallops!

I love salted caramel ice cream. I also like to take a thick slice of good grade bacon, cut it into equal 3rd’s, fry the bacon crisp, pat dry then dip all but one little corner into tempered chocolate and let the chocolate setup. Talk about good!!!

There was a restaurant in Little Rock that did very traditional French food and did a caramelized pork belly that could have been a dessert.

This reminds me of a comic panel from the Feb 1983 Playboy. In the scene you see the inside of an ice cream parlor and a sign syating the flavors they sell are Corn, Wood, Liver and Vanilla. The clerk behind the counter says, “We’re out of vanilla”.

I wish I could ost a picture... but I can’t find a digital copy.

concotions to get nourishment.

Sorry for the chemo news. I lost 85#’s during my first set of chemo. I live in Washington, like you, I found medical pot or I would have lost 100#’s or worse, the doctor pulling the plug.

The second time, I had the med pot from the start and only lost 25#. Hope there won’t be a third.

Good luck to you and seriously consider my suggestion. Enjoy your shake!

Candy-cap mushrooms, as their name implies, are quite sweet and suitable for use in desserts. They taste of maple syrup. I suspect this ice cream is delicious by almost anyone’s standards.

Interesting. Mr. Trisham and I are avid fans of “Chopped” and “Iron Chef America”. I recall seeing a chef prepare some kind of fish ice cream. It was intriguing.

Vegetables for dessert?

That's what rhubarb pie is for!
