Thanks for your patience, guys, and I’m sorry (again!) for the dearth of postings; life just got in the way. I have been (of course!) cooking (although a lot of the things that I cook over the holidays are traditional things that you’ve seen here before) and there will be a flurry of posts and photos today, but then I’m headed out of town for a while. I hope to get back to more regular posting in the next couple of weeks.
Here’s something that I whipped up while I was away:
I found myself with a lot of fresh pomegranates on hand recently and have been looking for new ways to use them. I came across this recipe in my online trolling and decided to give it a try. It was VERY quick and easy (especially when compared to my usual ice cream method). The kids loved it, but it was a little too rich and “one note” in flavor for my taste. It tasted more like very cold, flavored whipped cream (which I guess it ws, really) than like flavored ice cream, if that makes sense. It was VERY easy, though. Almost ridiculously easy.
Even though this ice cream looks delightful, I think I will pass and make your usual ice cream! I got a new ice cream maker for Christmas, even though I have a perfectly good one back in the states, in storage. I was told I would not have much room and only to bring ‘necessary’ items to Korea. I didn’t think my ice cream maker was ‘necessary’ until I got here and wanted to make ice cream a couple of times. I have used it 2 times since Christmas. So, I will make you Mexican vanilla ice cream tonight or in the morning, just without the Mexican vanilla.
