Thai Rolled Ice Cream
Nothing screams summer like ice cream. From the sound of the ice cream truck to the hypnotic soft serve swirl, the frosty refreshment is a staple of the season.
This year, why not try something a bit different with Thai rolled ice cream? Named for its unique preparation method, liquid cream is poured onto a slate that instantly freezes it. Once it’s cold enough, the strip of ice cream is served rolled up in a spiral. It looks tempting and tastes divine.
It’s a fun way to put an international spin on your favorite summertime treat.
Fun with Veggies
Whether you’re a die-hard vegan or you simply love the full flavor and aesthetic beauty of a few vegetables on your plate, plant-based food is an important part of your daily life. So it’s time to have a little fun with them – and 2018 is a good year for delightful veggie trends.
For a fun twist on the classics that also helps reduce veg-bloat, pickled vegetables are growing in popularity. Also, working natural flavors into classic dishes, like coconut milk-infused pancakes, makes the old seem new again.
Grill up Something Special
There’s nothing like lighting up the grill on a warm summer night. Burgers, steaks, chicken and more are almost synonymous with this time of year.
But if you have a more adventurous palate, why not slap something new on the grill? This year, nontraditional cuts of meat like oyster steak and Vegas strip steak make for a unique experience.
Start from Scratch
And finally, there’s nothing better than something homemade – and that includes your condiments.
By skipping the Heinz and preparing your own ketchup, mustard and more, you can turn an old-fashioned cookout into a one-in-a-lifetime experience. Experimenting with spices allows you to dress up your meals in a way that will be entirely one-of-a-kind – and your taste buds will thank you.
