We got the KitchenAid KICA0WH Ice Cream Maker Attachment
for Christmas & it worked like a dream. For this first go I went with a very basic vanilla gelato recipe (just cream, milk, sugar & vanilla) that I found in The Ice Cream Bible
.
It was heavenly. Now I can't wait to try other flavors & add-ins.
On to Menu Planning Monday....
Black Bean & Squash Chili - inspired by the one at Lori's Lipsmaking Goodness

Chicken & Potato Hotdish - I forgot how much I love hotdish until I made one last week. This will be my poultry spin on hotdish
Shrimp & Beet Pasta - I just have a feeling that the flavor of roasted beets & shrimp will go together nicely, Matt is dubious.
Steak Sandwiches with Horseradish Root Vegetable Mash - I've got all this fresh horseradish & root vegetables so this seems like a perfect us.
Roast Pheasant with Wild Rice - This was the amazing dinner my sister's mother-in-law served us on Christmas. We were lucky & my brother gave us some pheasant he shot so we can try making it ourselves.
Pork Chops with Celeriac Gratin - This meal is again about the side dish & finding a good uses for celeriac.
I haven't figured out my cupcake flavor for the week yet so you'll have to wait until Friday to find out.
LOVE the Kitchen Aid ice cream attachment. We made Guinness ice cream last week. And have made any number of ice creams over the 4 years we've had it. Once you've made homemade ice cream, everybody else's just isn't as good.
ReplyDeleteBlack bean and squash chili sounds out of this world!
ReplyDeleteI just got a Kitchen Aid and I can't wait to start collecting attachments. Ice cream and pasta will probably be the first 2 :)
We have the KA ice cream attachment, too. Absolutely love it! The celeraic gratin sounds like it will be good. I'm also interested in the horseradish veggie mash... I've never tried fresh horseradish.
ReplyDeleteYou have to share some shots of that pheasant dish. Sounds amazing!
ReplyDeleteHave you considered a savory celeriac sherbet?
ReplyDeleteDelicious menu for sure. Shrimp & Beet Pasta sounds interesting. Chicken & Potato Hotdish, ah..ha..., you can send this to Potato Ho Down, it sounds perfect for such event.
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Let me tell you about ice cream. If I could only have one thing for the rest of my life, it would be ice cream. It is my absolute downfall. And quite ironically it can sit in the house for the kids and I wont touch it.
ReplyDeleteBut I d have to say if a bowl of your ice cream here was right before me, I am afraid I would jump right in.
I'm loving that attachment. Why didn't I just get the attachment instead of buying a whole ice cream maker that eats up so much kitchen cupboard space. I probably should have called you first.
ReplyDeleteOh, hotdish, how I miss you! In Arizona, we only have casseroles! ;)
