I have to admit that I am always more drawn to the weirder ice cream flavours than the classics. And so it came to pass that I made parsnip ice cream, based on this recipe by Barbara Kafka. (I replaced the cream with coconut milk/cream*).
Anyway, this was really good. I loved that I got to taste it: it's really sweet and nutty, in a sort of chestnut/sweet potatoey sort of way. I think that with the right accompaniments, it could be really amazing, but as a flavour on its own I had my fill after a few bites. And now I am regretting that I didn't make something more boring (I mean, 'classic').
===================
* I used some mysterious coconut product I had in a container in the fridge. Usually that would be coconut milk, but recently I have been playing around with
coconut whipped cream, and have been buying something called coconut
cream which is coconut milk with about 30% fat. Most likely it was a mix of coconut milk and cream.
