Slashfood Ate (8): Homemade Ice Cream

Beet Ice Cream
Ice cream is the great equalizer. Every person from every walk of life loves ice cream. (Except for lactose intolerant people, but they're obviously being punished by God.)

While it's perfectly acceptable to march into Baskin-Robbins and demand a triple cone of Jamoca Almond Fudge (you weirdos), or dive head-first into the Haagen-Dazs freezer for a pint of Sticky Toffee Pudding (you English people), wouldn't it feel exponentially more gratifying to make your own?

With a little bit of patience (or an ice cream maker), you can stop begrudging that Sesame, Soybean and Dried Kelp Ice Cream that you couldn't afford to have dry-frozen and shipped from Japan - and just make your own!

Here, eight ice cream recipes worth a whip:
  1. Thomas Keller's Red Beet Ice Cream
  2. Fig & Rosewater Ice-Cream with Crushed Pistachios & Dark Chocolate
  3. Candied Bacon Ice Cream
  4. Fennel Ice Cream
  5. Key Lime Pie Ice Cream
  6. Cherry Ice Cream with Chocolate Chips
  7. Tamarind Coconut Ice Cream
  8. Roasted Peach Ice Cream
An informal poll: Whether homemade, store bought, or imaginary, what is your ultimate ice cream flavor?

Oh wait -- I've already made that. YUM! The Mai-Tai sorbet ain't bad either.

As a lactose intolerant person, who loves and misses ice cream terribly, I have to say that I hate your taunting, ice cream eating face.
