Sharon Louise Crayton’s One Taste is a cross between a meditation manual, a travel guide to the world, and a cookbook. See the the Books in Brief section in the January 2009 issue of Shambhala Sun for more details on this treat of a read. But for now, here is the recipe from One Taste that I personally find the most tempting:
Black Sesame Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 1 cup (150 g) black sesame seeds
- 1 3/4 cups (300 ml) whole milk
- 1 cup (225 g) granulated sugar
- 1 large organic egg
- 1 rounded tablespoon peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups (400 ml) heavy cream
Method
- Roast sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat, covered, until the pop.
- Grind sesame seeds with a mortar and pestle or in coffee grinder until powdered.
- Blend sesame-seed powder, milk, sugar, egg, peanut butter, and vanilla in an electric blender or food processor until smooth.
- Add heavy cream and blend one more minute.
- Refrigerate 12 hours or overnight.
- Churn in an electric ice-cream maker 20-25 minutes or until ice-cream consistency. Freeze until ready to serve.
Yummy recipe! Gotta share this with my mom. I can't wait to feel this melt in my mouth. Just one question, whether any electric blender would do the job, or is it some specific one? Which electric blender did you use to prepare this relishing ice cream?
