A South East Asian dish, “nasi lemak” as an ice cream flavour. The actual dish is rice cooked in coconut milk, usually served with chili paste and dried anchovies, sometimes some kind of meat too. The ice cream flavour had the savoury creaminess of the coconut rice and a hint of spice, which worked surprisingly well with the cold ice cream. Don’t think it would have been as good if they tried to add the anchovies though.
I had wasabi ice cream before as well, and while sweet the spiciness there was also nice and different from typical ice cream flavours.
I’ve had savoury ice cream before, I’d give this a shot.
What flavour?
Savoury
