mmm. Ice cream.

I want an ice cream maker. I blame the article in the paper about home ice cream makers with built-in cooling systems that are coming down in price (only around $200 - not exactly cheap) and gave tips and recipes for ice cream ( Read more... )

We have a nice cuisinart ice cream maker that I bought a year ago for about $50. It works really well (as long as you don't over fill it). It freezes the ice cream to about a soft serve consistency and then you put it in the freezer if you want it harder. There are quite a few other ones that are cheaper, but a lot of them don't have a separate canister that you can remove (although I don't think you're supposed to store the ice cream in any ice cream maker).

Very cool, I'll definitely look into the cheaper models!

I think they are - at least, if you get the kind that are professional-quality downgraded for home-production, I'm sure they are. :D

Forget making them. I'm desperate to get my hands on Haagen-Dazs new reserve series (Amazon Valley chocolate! Brazilian Acai Berry sorbet! Toasted Coconut Sesame Brittle! Hawaiian Lehua Honey & Sweet Cream! Pomegranate Chip!), but the bastards aren't selling it in Canada. It doesn't even exist on their Canadian website ;__;

Oooooh. Those sound good...unfortunately I bet there's no effective way to transport them via mail, otherwise I'd offer to send you some. :(

I had green tea ice cream one time, omg so good.

Green tea ice cream is awesome. I'm hoping that jasmine green tea will be even better. And gingerbread ice cream, OMG yes. I want to make chai ice cream, too. Mmm cinnamon clovey gingery black tea goodness.

Try some of the places in SF that do this - Bi-Rite, and a couple of others make tea ice cream - until you get your own machine
