There are many garlic ice cream recipes on the internet. But has anyone
tried this? Is it good? I love garlic, but I cannot imagine it in ice
cream.

I tried the famous Garlic Ice Cream they sell at the Gilroy
Garlic Festival and it was as awful as you could imagine. 100%
gimmick.

Vanilla ice cream with granulated garlic added. That's it.
Sounds great, eh?

......As opposed to Green Tea ice cream, which is awesome.

Hi Christy,

Flavored ice creams have been around for awhile at most of the "high end"
places. These are mainly used as palette cleansers as well as complimentary
desserts from the chef.

Garlic isn't all that shocking.... you'll see bacon ice cream, celeriac,
beet, carrot, ginger, clam, lobster, etc. It's only as crazy (and sometimes
disgusting) as the chef wants it to be. You can add any flavor to ice
cream.

The difference is that this isn't something you want to serve to a guest
like a normal bowl of ice cream... meaning... maybe just a little melon
baller of ice cream would do the trick. (say... 1 tsp)

I would serve a garlic melon baller as a teaser to the next course -
(hopefully not dessert!!!)

Makes me wonder if it's supposed to be a savory recipe. Having trouble
imagining a savory frozen creamy garlicy thing right now.

I keep meaning to leave my trolling lures at home, but seem to have brought
my condescending asshole lure with me this time around.
It sure is a big condescending asshole, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to
throw it back for someone else to soon catch.

You sure would be a nice addition to my septic tank Steve Wertz, but I only
have room for so many assholes.

One can get a really nice triple cream vanilla and add ones own roasted
garlic, to taste, really not all that different than a cream sauce with
garlic. Of course frozen but serve it with a nice bit of avocado....

I may actually try that.

If only it were you serving up the ice cream at the garlic festival
that day.

Garlic ice cream is great between courses. It acts as a vomit inducer.
You eat a dish, then eat garlic ice cream, puke, then you can eat
another dish, then eat garlic ice cream, etc, forever.

The same kind of thing that ancient Romans used feathers for.

How brilliantly garbled and startlingly mixed are these
flaccid implied metaphors.

Guesses...?

That's what I remember too. Awful tasting stuff. Some people liked it
though because last summer I noticed people purchasing full sized cones
of it. blech.

I have a cookbook which includes a recipe for onion ice cream. The ice cream
is served with meat, as part of a main course.
Might be good.

But garlic ice cream on its own does not appeal to me. I'll try almost
anything at least once, though.

He is rather conceited. I liked how he said he wanted to get people to
try new flavor combibations and then his ice cream was voted the worst.
If some so called chef wants to make some weird flavor of ice cream
such as garlic they can go right ahead, but they shouldn't turn their
noses up at people and say they have uneducated palates when they say
it tastes horrible. It's bad manners to criticize someone else's food
choices.

I first tasted it at the gilroy festival and liked it but felt i could
do it better, i am a garlicophyle, i do love garlic as a flavour, i have
even served guacamole with garlic ice cream, and in a pinch it can be
melted and warmed up and used as a nice cream sauce.
