"It's not meant to be super sweet," Reusing says of this delicious, silken ice cream. "It's a fun way to taste corn." And using coconut milk in the base means there's no need to make a custard.

Back to TopThis is a unique flavor combination to be sure, but it tastes good! The brown sugar syrup is essential, otherwise the corn flavor just too strange. Although I make frozen custard quite regularly, I had a problem getting the consistency right with this recipe: my ice cream was very hard. I had to thaw it in the fridge for an hour before serving. I had no problem with odor.

This is strange and wonderful, I'll definitely be sharing this, and making it again. I especially love the brown-sugar syrup, and can't wait to try it with waffles and french toast.
