Those Tipsy Texans referred me to you when I said I couldn't wrap my arms around Fernet. Funnily enough, just before they told me about your ice cream, another friend told me it had to be ice cold to be properly enjoyed - so your ice cream sounds perfect. Thanks!
hey sinda,
im bringing in fernet ice cream tonight to anvil bar in houston. if you're by, come by and sample it.
I live in Austin, or I would. If I lived in Houston I would be there as much as possible!
Do you work for Scott at Textile?
That ice cream sounds tasty--I'll have to try it sometime. And I would gladly eat it with a piece of gingerbread cake.
Fernet and Coke= Fernando. A staple in Argentina.
I just found your blog through a tip from Michael O'Boyle. Your stuff looks great!
I notice that you have your ice creams thickened with hydrocolloids instead of eggs. It's the first time I've seen that, except in the most esoteric recipes intended for pacojets. I'm going to be trying it immediately. I was wondering whether it's still necessary to allow the base to mature before freezing. Or is that only necessary for full hydration of dry milk powders?
One other question. Do you really measure out xanthan gum and Ultra-Tex 3 by the teaspoon, as opposed to with an accurate scale?
havent really tried using fernet before..but i have heard it's really really good..ill probably try this recipe of yours next weekend

Why not try a sweet potato pumpkin spiced custard with the Fernet? I think it sounds good.
