Making strange ice creams was my favorite hobby at the start of the covid lockdowns back in 2020, although, I always tried to make them good weird. Some favorites include spicy chili dark chocolate, cafe patron, Cabernet Sauvignon with nutella fudge swirl, saffron and honey, cardamom vanilla, summer truffle and honey, hennesey vanilla (SHOCKINGLY good), and bourbon pecan, but by far my crowning acheivement was a caprese ice cream sundae: riccota ice cream, basil gelato, and tomato sorbet, with balsamic caramel drizzle. It was next level unreal. Maybe I'll pick that hobby back up after this video

[@deniseross2590]

Sounds heavenly. I adore bourbon ice cream.

[@KatieDawson3636]

[@sarabaghaei5056]

Recipes, please?

[@meIatonin]

cardamom vanilla sounds far from strange

[@labella9291]

Most of them sound far from strange. I mean, maybe the caprese sundae, basil gelato and tomato sorbet (though some tomatoes can be shockingly sweet, so it's a mileage varies kind of thing). Find a way to combine the three and instead of napoleon ice cream, you can have margherita ice cream, lol. What I'm looking for, personally, is pickle ice cream. I am obsessed with all things pickle. I regularly order pickle candy from Lofty Pursuits, and pickle cotton candy (and other things) from Vat 19... Pickle ice cream would be just the thing for me, lol

[@Magmafrost13]

Cheese ice cream has loads of historical precedent. Its largely gone out of fashion more recently (though, its still popular in parts of the world) but in the overall history of ice cream its honestly not that weird

I've been fortunate enough to go to a couple high-end French restaurant where Trou-Normand were served, basically it's a palate cleanser between dishes.

Since then, Parmesan Icecream, Tomato Icecream, Curry/Curcuma icecream have been eaten with delight. Try it, it's something else

One of my favourite Kitkat flavours I had in japan was wasabi, and I was really surprised. But I can see how it has trouble working in icecream. It should probably be paired with another flavor.

[@NotSomeJustinWithoutAMoustache]

It was paired with another flavor in this video, Josh straight up adds matcha to it. Maybe the two don't mesh too well for an ice cream? Josh did say he could make the wasabi one better so maybe just did smth wrong.

Which is precisely why the wasabi should’ve been paired with chocolate, wasabi KitKats and wasabi chocolate? Delicious. Wasabi and matcha? Eh.

[@chookettelove]

Where I’m from (south of France) we have a company called Pole Sud that does ice cream with whatever flavour you want. My parents had a restaurant and my boyfriend used to work for Pole sud so I tried a lot of different ice cream, the best out of the « weird » flavors for me were porcini mushroom, foie gras, and probably goat cheese. Surprisingly good! The goat cheese one is amazing with a tomato tarte tatin, it’s like a dessert that you eat as a starter. You should totally look up the company they make a lot of unusual things (a lot of classics too) but it could always give you ideas!

[@AllenMZim]

There's a great little mom and pop gelato place near where I live that I frequent quite often. Everything there is made in-house and their gelato flavors (as well as their cookies, teas, chocolates, and other confections) change on a regular basis. There was one time where they had a gorgonzola cheese and honey gelato. While I was a little mystified at first, I was also very intrigued. I had never seen or heard of anything like this before. I got a medium sized scoop of it without sampling it first. It was DELICIOUS! It had this great sweet and tangy thing going on. It was perfectly balanced and there were actual bits of gorgonzola cheese in the gelato that gave it such a great texture. There were also these great swirls of honey throughout that were lovely, too. In conclusion, cheese in ice cream/gelato is indeed an amazing thing, and I believe that it should be more of a commonplace thing.

[@NotSomeJustinWithoutAMoustache]

Since you kinda' know about gelatos I wanted to ask, since Josh made custards for his "ice creams" wouldn't that mean he just made gelatos? I don't really get the difference between the two very well..

[@mikegottschau4224]

I love gorgonzola ice cream! Once, I made a savory gorgonzola ice cream that I put on top of bison steaks with worcestershire onions and mushrooms! It was awesome! I also made a slightly sweet one for an old job to put on our cheese board, that we topped with honey, hazelnuts, and black pepper. So fucking good!

[@kielapagsisihan5664]

[@joellastra2956]

[@JJinVenice]

Kraft cheese powder has powdered milk in it. If you add a touch of powdered milk to your custard, it helps prevent ice crystals and makes the ice cream smoother.

The two finalist ice creams looks awesome. I wonder if Mac and Cheese has sodium citrate in it? That may explain the velvety texture. I definitely use it in my cheesy sauces for that luxurious texture. Looked online but not sure if the Australian Kraft mac and cheese contains the same as the US version. In general, I wonder if sodium citrate added to the warm milk for any ice cream custard would make it luxe!?

Perfect episode to have brought on local Houston ice cream hype machine Underground Creamery

[@NickyHendriks]

At one of the restaurants I've worked for in the past we did some 'weird' ice cream flavours as well, from roasted bell peppers to watercress/bacon. Almost all of them were used in hearty-dishes, usually starters or second/third course. No churning at all, just freeze is and then pacotize which worked like a charm at creating a smooth and soft ice cream over and over. But we did more strange stuff like making gel out of hay to serve with a cheese dish for example. I must say, I've learned a lot of strange things there and it really opened my mind towards things that might sound strange. But, I must say, the best ice cream flavour I've ever had was pandan, without a doubt. Just regular plain ice-cream custard (we made it a bit different with stabilizers and stuff so it wouldn't melt during pacotizing) and instead of steeping with vanilla use pandan leaves. Shit was aromatic and brilliant! Also, don't forget about the OG weird flavour ice cream: black sesame. That shit is pure brilliance as well!
