I think I'd say beet, because I'd never had it before and I really, really love it. I think olive oil and grapefruit are close runners up.

I do hope you get that ice cream maker (you can get a good one for not too much), and in the meantime, David Lebovitz's site has good directions for making ice cream without a machine.<BR/><BR/>Meander- thanks- trust me, the low calories version is much friendlier to the waistline!<BR/><BR/>Vee- ah, sorry, I've now put a link in the post on how to infuse things. Basically heat the chai (I'd use 1-2 tbl) with the milk until just simmering. Set aside to steep for 10-15 mnutes, then strain out the chai, and use the milk in the recipe as directed.<BR/><BR/>hilda- thanks, glad to hear someone else loves ice cream as much as I do!<BR/><BR/>Tammy- ha, I hope things will slow down around here now that the challenge is over!<BR/><BR/>Krizia- what an amazingly flattering compliment. I love cooking and writing, but I've got a whole other career to worry about, so you can imagine it's a balancing act!<BR/><BR/>jep, rosehaven- thanks, I liked all the colors in the photos.<BR/><BR/>christy- i hope you get that ice cream maker, but in the meantime, if you really want to try the olive oil (which I highly recommend), you can try doing it without a machine. Just put the custard in the freezer and beat vigorously (or blend with an immersion blender) every twenty minutes until it reaches the right consistency.<BR/><BR/>sandi- thanks!<BR/><BR/>bri- ah, I have beets growing in the garden too! Except, if I don't re-pot them soon they'll be the size of peas. I do hope you try the beet ice cream though, many people are skeptical, but I haven't had a single person try it and not like it!<BR/><BR/>premium- thanks!Mercedeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097330009175643958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5262628558438346351.post-82307527648683110432007-09-03T14:25:00.000-05:002007-09-03T14:25:00.000-05:00Your blog is a complete pleasure.
