Try cardamom ice cream

After typing a post about a wasabi popsicle, I started to think about other spice and and ice combinations. Naturally, I thought of cardamom, one of my favorite spices. A friend of mine recently suggested that we make cardamom ice cream. Unlike wasabi, cardamom is widely used in both savory and sweet dishes, such as rice and pastries. Its deeply aromatic qualities have always attracted me. And now, I'm dying with curiosity to find out its potential with ice cream.

Below are a few recipes you can try at home:

If any of you have tried cardamom ice cream before, I'd love to find out what it tastes like. Please let me know!

D is for Dates: Coffee-steeped Dates with Cardamom

I first made this dessert last spring and it's quickly become one of my favorites. It appeared in the March 2005 issue of Gourmet Magazine in an article about the London restaurant Moro.

Bring 2 cups of freshly made espresso (I use Bustello) to a boil with 1 teaspoon sugar, 20 whole cardamom pods, lightly crushed, and 1 3-inch cinnamon stick, broken in half. Add coffee to two cups pitted Medjool dates in a heat-proof bowl. Cool, cover and refrigerate overnight. Serve dates and espresso syrup over Greek yogurt or plain yogurt that has drained in a paper-towel-lined sieve for one hour.

Cooking live with Slashfood: Streusel Coffee Cake with Nicole Weston

Last week, our Cooking Live series focused on a savory stew. This week, I'm turning over to the sweet side with a classic breakfast favorite: coffee cake. If you're not familiar with coffee cake, it gets its name because it is designed to be served with coffee or tea, as part of a mid-morning or mid-afternoon meal, not for dessert. This coffee cake is a Martha Stewart Living recipe that is brimming with streusel. In fact, it has more streusel than batter, though the batter expands to a respectable amount once the cake has baked.

The recipe that inspired this "episode" is Cardamom Streusel Coffee Cake, which won me over with its delicious appearance. It also gives me a good opportunity to take my own Martha Challenge, and see if I have better luck with her (and her publication's) recipes than some others have. I guarantee that a few liberties will be taken with this recipe, so stay tuned for the ingredients and my version of the recipe later in the week, with a full series of posts detailing the method, mixing, baking and eating of the cake on Friday.
