My Green Tea Ice Cream Experiment

So I know I go on and on about my time at Quay and how amazing it was. But Even after allllll this time I cannot get something out of my head.

The amuse bouche of sashimi tuna, dashi jelly and eggplant cream. It was quite literally one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth.

In particular… That dashi jelly has struck me as just such a marvelous idea.

Now, I’ve always been a fan of savoury foods and not so much a fan of desserts. But boy oh boy, create that mind blowing mix of salty-sweet and I will literally melt into a puddle of happiness. One of my favourite sweet things is green tea ice cream. 

My plan on creating my own little green tea wonderland of texture and flavour is this:

- Home made green tea ice cream, smooth, silky and creamy deliciousness.
- Topped with mildly sweet azuki beans (red beans)
- A small spoonful of dashi jelly cubes sitting on top of that
- home made crispy, salty rice puffs scattered all over
- And a final little topping of sweet whipped cream.

I’ve had a lot of green tea ice cream in my life… never have I seen it done like this before.

What do you think? I will definitely be giving it a go.
