I am beginning to wonder if this is perhaps
the wrong time of year to have published an ice cream book but c'est la vie and
all that. It was already written and I
was eager to try the whole eBook publishing thing. I have sold a few books, of course, but not a
truck load so to speak!
To me, ice cream is an all year round
treat, even in colder climates. As evidence I was in Moscow about a quarter
of a century ago, maybe more, in December and it was quite common and strange
to frequently see people eating ice cream cornets in the street. I don't know if it is part of the Russian
culture!
Me at the Kremlin!
Anyhoo - back to my theme - there are three
ice creams that I traditionally make at Christmas, all based on my one simple
recipe, they are ...
1.
Buttered Rum & Ginger Ice Cream
I usually make this for pre Christmas
social do's and sometimes for Christmas Eve.
It is one of my real man's favourites despite it being somewhat exotic
by his normal standards.
2.
Ice Cream Mince Pies
Christmas Dinner alternative dessert and to
my mind, because I don't usually like mincemeat except in thes, much nicer than
traditional mince pies.
3.
Christmas Pudding Ice Cream
There are lots of recipes about for this
but I have been making (and selling) this version for years and years, it is both the best and the easiest I know of. I
usually make this a few days after Christmas.
I'm afraid I cannot actually give the
recipes here as part of my agreement with Amazon is that the material is not
published elsewhere but I can encourage you to buy the book! Go on, you know you want to! Right, that's enough encouragement from me,
sorry about that!
