Serving Ice Cream, Japanese Style

Just a little quickie post.
The wonderful ice cream blog Serving Ice Cream emailed me a little while ago with a little interview asking all about Japanese Ice Cream , Japanese Ice Cream recipes and why I have the blog, stuff like that.
I gladly answered and you can read about on their site. By the way don't just read that, there is a ton more info, history, ice cream trucks ... everything ice cream!

Japanese Ice Cream Faces

Japanese Ice Cream Faces, no it is not an ice cream flavour or Japanese ice cream recipes but a little web site from a lovely Japanese girl that makes little sculptures in her ice cream.
I guess she is very talented and because it is ice cream she would really have to work fast before the Japanese ice cream melts. She says there is one must do rule - eat the ice cream after you make the face, don't waste it. :)
Cool.

Pino Japanese Bite Sized Ice Cream

These little Japanese Ice Creams are delicious. Each Pino is just a little mouthsized portion of flavoured ice cream dipped in chocolate.
I like the mango one better the the green tea, the mango ice cream has a nice fresh taste.
Here is a little video advert for Japanese Pino ice cream and a photo of the two flavours I have tried. My Friends! And I must add look at her strange Japanese clothes.

Green Tomato and Wasabi Ice Cream Recipe

I was aked if there were any Green Tomato Ice Cream recipes but I couldn't find any. There are lots of Green Tea ice cream recipes though!
Anyway, I thought I will make my own Green Tomato and Wasabi Ice Cream. Tomato is a fruit so I guess it isn't so wierd as ice cream and the wasabi gives it just a little bite.

Ingredients

2-3 Green Tomatoes
400ml cream
3 egg yolks
100g castor sugar
1 tsp Wasabi paste

Method

Wash then peel the green tomatoes (drop in boiling water for a couple of minutes then plunge in ice water to peel skin easily).
Blend and strain tomatoes to make a green tomato puree.
Pour the tomato puree into a saucepan and simmer until it has reduced to 150ml
Once the tomatoes have reduced, place in a container in the freezer until cold.
Add the cream,egg,sugar and wasabi in a saucepan and cook over very low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spatula until the mixture starts steaming and thickens slightly. Set aside in the refrigerater until cold.
When both mixtures have cooled, pour the puree into the egg mixture and lightly whisk to combine.
Pour into the ice cream machine and process.
Enjoy!
