The only ones I've made are:

1. Open a can or two of coconut milk.

2. Add sweetener of your choice to taste.

3. Pour in ice cream maker.

I'd guess it would be even better if you made a custard

and added some coconut and nuts and chocolate

chips. And/or just add raw egg yolks.

I have made custards with coconut milk ...

they are easier than cream (no skin), and ice cream

that starts with a good custard is rather good. More

work though. My " simple " recipe is fairly icy, not

creamy, which is how it usually is in Thai restaurants too.

But to answer question... yeah, you can in general

swap coconut milk for cream in most recipes (incl.

cream sauces). Great for folks with casein issues.

Thanks Heidi. I'm going to have to get me an ice cream maker one of these days!

I make ice cream by stirring it every so often - works well but an ice cream

maker is appealing. Thanks for the feedback. I think I'm going to make a

coconut custard tonight!

" im just salivating at the thought of coconut

, ice cream is easy. Just stir it (food processor is good). Put it in

a container in the fridge and every 20 minutes or so, give it a stir. It tends

to go solid again later but it's just like the real thing the first day or so.

I think Heidi said it's exactly the same as cream custard but replace the cream

with coconut cream. I'm going to try it tonight. I can't wait to finish work

so I can go make it. Yum yum!!

[Guest guest]

No, you have to put it in the freezer and stir it every now and then. It's

important to get the air in it. Nice and fluffy. Voila, you will have divine

ice cream.

You can make ice cream easily with the Champion Juicer. Just freeze

the mixture into ice cube trays, pop it into your juicer, and instant

ice cream.

I saw a " recipe " somewhere where they put the ice cream in a container, put that

in a bag with

ice cubes in salt and a little water, and just shook it or spun it around

in a pillowcase. You can build up some muscle tone

that way ...

Heh heh. the original ice cream I guess. I think I'll stick to stirring every

half an hour.

Ooooh, curses on you people who have work environments that allow you

to read this group all day long! I can't be seen browsing the Web or

reading long personal e-mails at work, so I have to catch up at night

and it's a pain. Seems like a lot of people on this list have the

luxury (and it is a luxury!) of getting paid to learn about nutrition.

Gosh darn you all!

I work at home Tom. No big bad bosses looking over my shoulder. On the other

hand, I'm only looking at the emails when I'm not working and therefore I'm not

paid to learn about nutrition. I'm only paid for the exact work I do, and not

very well. I teach so I just squeeze peaks at the emails between classes. I'm

sure there are loads of people here reading these emails at work. Yeah, it is a

lot to read and catch up on. I work out of the house a couple of days a week

and those are the days I get really behind.

my last job was like that tom. was for a corporate based company. i surfed

this page once ( which technically was about 20% related to my job ) whcih

was selling computer hardware. Aparantly someone " dobbed " me in seeing i

was not on a usual page and then i foudn myself in an office with my

manager, his manager and the state manager. Got my ass grilled, told that i

was effectively " stealing " from the company ( the 150k sized www page

obviously cost a penny so )

my new job which is work at home doing web design i allow myself free web

surfing lol

P.S tell your boss this. In japan im told that certain companies now almost

force you to surf the net or play a game of cards on the pc for 10 mins a

day for " stress relief "
