We received a request from one of our clients who was hosting a Moroccan themed dinner party to make for them Cardamom or Cinnamon Ice Cream for dessert.
I for one love spices and I am quite adventurous when it comes to trying out new flavours. However, most of the Malaysian customers normally prefer classic flavours. So I get excited when customers request for out of the ordinary flavours like cinnamon and cardamom.
We decided on making Cinnamon Ice Cream as I thought it would be easily more accepted because it is sweet, aromatic but not too overwhelming. Cardamom has a faint lemon taste and eucalyptus overtones which is nice but indulged as it is, am not too sure. I would think combining Cardamom with another citrus fruit would make a lovely ice cream.
Made a rich ice cream mix and infused Cinnamon sticks in milk together with a stick of Madagascar vanilla bean. Nearing the end of the freezing process we added cinnamon powder so that every scoop of ice cream would contain golden specks of cinnamon.
This ice cream would go well with a chocolate dessert or any poached fruit like apple or pear!
Walaa~~~The finished product!N.B. Post published on written date. In February, we also made Coffee Cardamom Ice Cream and Orange Thyme Sorbet for other clients.
