kulfi

the new issue of chow finally arrived in my mailbox on saturday. inside was a recipe for kulfi (indian ice cream).

one essential ingred, of course, is cardamom. have i mentioned that i *heart* cardamom? *SUPER HEART*, in fact. when i saw that the recipe called for 2 tsp of the stuff, i ran to the spice cabinet mummering "pleaselettherebecardamom!pleaselettherebecardamom!". lo and behold there was! (it's a holdover from the dotcom boom. leff invested in spices and tableware.)

since i've been trying to use as much of our dry goods as possible so i won't have to pack them, i told leff "soon! soon, we will have kulfi!" he responded with a hearty "ka-chew!!! DOOOOOD!!" actually, that was his game, but you get the point.

all *ka-chews!!!* aside, we will be having kulfi tomorrow. it's in the freezer right now. DOOOOOOD!

it's really pretty great, brian!

esp since they now seem interested in publishing on a regular basis.

the cake recipes in this new one look incredible! one of them even has a mini recipe for homemade oreos!
