There are just some days when I need a little Modest Mouse to keep me going. Lately it has been Cowboy Dan with my morning coffee.
It is a new year again. I haven't started it with a slew of new goals or aspirations, the usual ones will suffice. You know, finding stable employment and maybe going back to school. Nothing new or exciting. Wait, scratch that. I DO have a food project that I am dying to try out.
SEA SALT ice cream!
Sounds a little odd, right? Well in case you have not noticed, I am a bit of a video game enthusiast and one of my all time favorite series (next to Final Fantasy) is Kingdom Hearts. Which makes perfect sense, since it is Final Fantasy and Disney morphed into one amazing series where you can explore HalloweenTown and fight Sephiroth with a sword that looks like a key (but not at the same time).
Damn. Now I really want to play Kingdom Hearts II again...
Anyway, in Kingdom Hearts II the main character always eats blue sea salt ice cream with his friends, usually on the roof of a clock-tower. This salty-sweet treat has intrigued me since I was a teenager and two days ago I realized that you can actually make it! I found the recipe on this adorable Tumblr I follow called Gourmet Gaming, where food from various video games is recreated in real life. So awesome.
Now I have never made ice cream before and I am fairly certain I do not own an ice cream machine, so this should be an interesting venture. It can't be that difficult, right?
