Recently I've created two new ice creams that turned out to be delicious!!!
The first one started with a Youtube Video of a Russian-German foodtuber. She had posted a video about how to make a "healthy paste" for some extra vitamin intake during winter season:
lots of lemons, ginger, kurkuma, honey and black pepper.
After I had grinded up the paste in the food processor it turned out to taste very nice. Then I had the idea to make a plain ice-cream base and add some of the paste while the base is churning in the ice-cream maker.
The result is a very refreshing ice-cream with just the right balance of slightly sour, a bit spicy and not overly sweet.
The second type is a spekkoek / kua lapis ice cream.
Spekkoek as it is called in Dutch is an all time favourite of mine. It's a rare treat because it's not available anyhwhere in Switzerland and I can only get some when I'm in the Netherlands.
A spice mixture of cardamom, cinnamon, clove, mace and anise gives the cake its unique taste.
Again I made a plain ice-cream base, tossed in the spice mixture and a bit of spekkoek flavoured liqeur with the most fantastic end result.
A bit tired of teaching I am now contemplating to keep on experimenting and the open my own ice-cream shop
