Katsolo's Journal, 09 April 2021

Take! I’ll take the whole thing please. I’ll even pay ya! 😜 

Mango is soooo good. With or without chocolate shavings.  

Do I see the next Ben & Jerry's emerging? 

Belgian chocolate .... Yummmmm 😋 

awesome!!!!!!!!!! 

I need to quit my job and start an ice cream business. That would be awesome. I know I’m never tired of it and this tastes way better than most store bought.  

I make a lot of ice cream. I have 3 ice cream makers so I can make three flavors at the same time. 

jealous, kenna. I don't have the space. I have to toss a gadget before I can get a new one these days. small house, small kitchen. 

You had me at ice cream!😋 

How are those muscles looking with all these anabolic recipes? 

Katsolo — when I bought my condo many years ago I had super heavy duty storage racks installed on the two long walls of the garage and I still run out of room to put stuff. And, I rent a storage locker for seasonal stuff like Christmas and sports gear and camping. Slowly going through everything and thinning out things I don’t use often or at all.. 

No,no,no, ice cream is my downfall. It would be like an alcoholic being a bartender if I got in the ice cream business, but I would need your recipes for yours looks so special and delicious!👏👍🌸 

@kat Have you perfected your base recipe? I found wide variation on the utubes...  

If I'm only making the protein ice cream, Shrewd, would it really be so bad? Sneaking in fruits, maybe even veggies, made to order, like Coldstone. Jimmie, I originally learned technique from Vitamix commercials because the order is so important. milk/yogurt/cottage cheese on the bottom, powders next, frozen stuff on top. then, you have to listen to the motor to gauge whether it's chunky, smooth or fluffy. I made the mango mix above fluffy, but I do love the chunky mix, too. the guar gum or xanthan really do make a difference if you want to go to the fluffy place. I don't always use it, and I prefer a solid pinch to a full 1/4tsp. I don't use ice, only frozen fruit, and I only do a 1/2 batch to come in at ~250 calories and 2 cups of finished ice cream. I have a basic Vitamix, I've used a Ninja and it did fine, and I've made enough margaritas in my friend's blendtech that I think that or any heavy duty blender can get you there.  

Popscicles of every possible kind are great. I make dozens of different kinds in all sizes and shapes of molds. Everyone has a favorite and it’s easy to do. For creamy ones I use full fat plain yogurt as the base 

Appreciate the info. I am going to get to work on some chunky monkey....  

So i can’t have the dark frozen cherries in the house because they are pretty much irresistible to me in ice cream form. 😱 

😍 

All my chunky promptly settled to the bottom of my monkey...
