    Anybody eaten Turkish ice cream?

    Like at Republic of Booza in Brooklyn? I’m wondering if the salep flour and mastic changes the taste. Looks cool, though.

    Ask KQ. I'm sure they make an organic, small batch version in Walla Walla.

    mastic has a bitter cedar/pine taste how much/how much it matters probably depends on the flavor. it also has slightly different "gum" propertys. 0 experience with it in ice cream.

    It's nowhere near rosin/pinetar strong, and it's not a bad aroma, or at least the stuff I have doesn't have a bad aroma -more like a piney IPA, but like lots of those natural gums it seems there can be a decently wide variation depending on sourcing. Many of those gums - mastic, arabic, elemi - are traditional ingredients for paints/varnishes to soften the coating and make it more chip resistant.

    Exactly where I went when I heard the ingredients. Ah well, it'll be a long time before it comes to scenic Washington. I'll probably make it to Turkey before I get to Brooklyn.

    If you want to try mastic in ice cream Fainting Goat in Seattle has a mastic and goat milk flavor. I thought it wasn't very piney
