Pads Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I was given an Ice cream maker for christmas and just made my first batch ... Of dark choc base with marsh mallows and grated dark chocolate ..plus a little rum fell in there too. cant wait fo it to freeze So Im on the look out for some other Ideas ....What is your favorite flavour ?I like strong flavours so think I might try Dark choc with chilli next or dark chocolate with peanut butter .Also looking forward to making some sorbets in the summer Any Ideas?

Patf Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I'm a bit boring and just make vanilla. But I once had some delicious mango ice cream, I think they just liquidised some ripe mangoes and mixed it into the cream mixture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pads Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 I was wondering about creamy fruit ones like that would it not curdle the cream ? As Id like to try dark cherry in the summer but not just a sorbet but a creamy one tooI like the idea of mango and passion fruit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Soak some prunes in Armagnac, and process them, or mash them . Make it with a good proportion of cream http://www.cuisine-campagne.com/index.php?post/2006/05/14/71-glace-au-pruneau-et-a-l-armagnac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moriarty Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 A local restaurant serves a tomato and basil sorbet .... which is so refreshing and utterly delicious. Might be worth a bash in the summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pads Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Moriatv..... I was thinking about this yesterday as we had some thing simular given to us while we waited for our food in a resturant last summer on a very hot day , it was more like a frozen gazpacio (sp?) and so so tasty i may have to experiment . I think it will need a lot of reducing to make an intense flavour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 A restaurant near me puts a boule of tomato sorbet in the middle of a bowl of gazpacho...it avoids the 'watering -down' effect of ice cubes. Perhaps you could do the same with this suggestion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
