Just do it like peach or something, though a good ripe persimmon is mostly liquidy so it would just suffuse throughout the mixture. --R On 7/9/12 12:09 PM, andrew strasfogel wrote: Still waiting for someone to dish up a persimmon ice cream recipe. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] OT - ice cream
Not as pungent, but perhaps equally unpopular is the Hachiya (astringent) persimmon. I have a large tree in my DC backyard that yields far more fruits than I can eat or give away. We just bought an ice cream maker so we're on the lookout for good frozen desert recipes for either persimmons or rhubarb (just two plants, but more than we can handle).

Never heard of the stuff, so I looked it up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian The durian is the fruit of several tree species belonging to the genus Durio and the Malvaceae family[1][3] (although some taxonomists place Durio in a distinct family, Durionaceae[1]). Widely known and revered in southeast Asia as the "king of fruits", the durian is distinctive for its large size, unique odour, and formidable thorn-covered husk. The fruit can grow as large as 30 centimetres (12 in) long and 15 centimetres (6 in) in diameter, and it typically weighs one to three kilograms (2 to 7 lb). Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk green to brown, and its flesh pale yellow to red, depending on the species. The edible flesh emits a distinctive odour, strong and penetrating even when the husk is intact. Some people regard the durian as fragrant; others find the aroma overpowering and offensive. The smell evokes reactions from deep appreciation to intense disgust, and has been described variously as almonds, rotten onions, turpentine and gym socks. The odour has led to the fruit's banishment from certain hotels and public transportation in southeast Asia. The durian, native to Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia, has been known to the Western world for about 600 years. The 19th-century British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace famously described its flesh as "a rich custard highly flavoured with almonds". The flesh can be consumed at various stages of ripeness, and it is used to flavour a wide variety of savoury and sweet edibles in Southeast Asian cuisines. The seeds can also be eaten when cooked. There are 30 recognised Durio species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit. Durio zibethinus is the only species available in the international market: other species are sold in their local regions. There are hundreds of durian cultivars; many consumers express preferences for specific cultivars, which fetch higher prices in the market.

Re: [MBZ] OT - ice cream
My wife makes wonderful ice cream with a KitchenAid stand mixer attachment. The last time she asked what flavor I wanted, I requested green tea, made with some bulk tea from my favorite Chinese restaurant. It was astonishingly good! More on topic: I have a cousin Mario who makes wonderful gelato: http://www.amatogelato.com/index.html I don't know if he makes black licorice, but he makes quite a few flavors. In the past he has made Champagne and even Viagra flavored gelato (I don't think this was naturally flavored!). Durian is a staple in his shop, that's the one that has a lid over the container to contain the odor.

Re: [MBZ] OT - ice cream
We make it every weekend for our 4 grand daughters. Fresh strawberry in season, peach, vanilla and of course chocolate. We've made a few others but these are the ones the little ones like. Since I am diabetic, we use Splenda instead of sugar, it takes a little longer to freeze but works out fine for everyone. It beats the heck out of store bought crap.
