Today, adventures on the frontiers of homemade ice cream: black pepper, basil and pine nut, onion-balsamic. NPR Kitchen Window story here.
My favorite was the black pepper, which was subtle and strange and distinctly its own species. I liked the basil and pine nut for its herbal impact, while the onion-balsamic was just plain wacky.
If you have a funky ice cream you adore, do share! I’d love to hear about it.

Hi Susie! What an interesting little experiment! I’m generally a mint chocolate chip girl but, I may give the black pepper ice cream a try.
By the way, I replied to your question over on my post (you can actually use the steps, even after the sides are sewn!). I hope you’ll stop by again soon!

Thanks Jennifer! I’ll try your invisible zip technique tonight and see how it turns out–hoping for the best…
I adore mint chip, too. If you’d like a recipe, I’ve got one here, in a previous story. Thanks for visiting!
