So, after making fifteen cups of buttercream this weekend for my All Souls cupcakes I have, well, a whole lot of egg yolks left over. Lots and lots of egg yolks. This can only mean one thing – ice cream time.
I got some ideas from my Twitter friends, and found a couple intriguing recipes of my own (the olive oil recipe is from David Lebovitz’ The Perfect Scoop). So readers – it’s up to you. Which one should I make? Of course, you can submit your own ideas – just as long as I can find (and, um, afford) the ingredients, I’m up for anything!

I’d love a recipe for vanilla ice cream with a strawberry swirl so I could use some of the fresh strawberries we’ve got here in Michigan.
Mmmm Olive Oil!! I had this flavor at a restaurant in Gallery Place (forget which one) and absolutely fell in love with it!
It may sound crazy, but I suggested cucumber ice cream. I had it a couple of times in Boston. It tasted so fresh and vaguely like watermelon. I’ve always wanted to make it myself.
I’d love to hear what an Olive Oil ice cream tastes like!
I’m just here to say that I love polls! Also, that photo is amazing.
I wrote in a vote for caramel ice cream (which is my favorite). I made a recipe by Helene from Tartelette and it was creamy and delicious (and yes it contains eggs). Here is the link: http://www.mytartelette.com/2009/07/recipe-chocolate-torte-caramel-ice.html
I have also tried Olive Oil ice cream with salted pepitas and it tasted very good, so I don’t think you’d go wrong what that flavor either. Good luck!
If that chocolate hazelnut is the recipe from The Perfect Scoop, it’s totally worth it. I don’t even like hazelnuts and I scarfed it down. pg 47, Gianduja Gelato
How is anyone choosing anything other than pistachio. IT’S THE BEST!
If you really understand your audience, the clear winner will of course be anything with Chocolate
