Hot ice cream? How can that be? Ideas in Food is a blog from two exceedingly innovative chefs who share their discoveries, experiments and ideas with their readers. Looking to the characteristics of ice cream - toothsome bite and melting on the tongue, in addition to both rice feel and flavor - they turned it into a hot dish. Starting with a savory cauliflower puree, they thickened it with methylcellulose, a stablilzer used commonly in ice cream, then poached the result. The poached puree, already shaped into ice cream-like scoops, melted both on the plate and on the tongue.
