GREEN TEA MOCHI ICE CREAM
I've had mochi many times in restaurants and have always been fascinated by its unique combination of taste and texture; but I had absolutely no clue how it was done. I basically still don't, but regardless, this was my first attempt and I look forward to lots of criticism.

Steps:
- Remove and discard the top half of a cardboard egg carton. Line 10 of the cups in the bottom half of the egg carton with plastic wrap.
- Scoop ice cream into 10 prepared egg carton cups. Cover scoops with plastic wrap and freeze until very firm, at least 2 hours.
- Stir rice flour, water, and salt together in a microwave-safe bowl; add sugar and stir until completely smooth. Whisk green tea powder into rice flour mixture.
- Cover the rice flour mixture bowl with plastic wrap; microwave for 2 minutes. Stir rice flour mixture, re-cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and microwave until mochi dough is thick and sticky, about 1 1/2 minutes more.
- Lightly dust a work surface with cornstarch. Turn mochi dough out on prepared work surface. Roll dough into a 1/8-inch thick rectangle; cut dough into 10 equal squares.
- Remove ice cream balls from plastic wrap. Place 1 ice cream ball in the center of 1 mochi dough square. Gather mochi dough together to cover the ice cream ball completely, pinch the edges together at the base, and cut off any excess dough. Repeat with remaining ice cream and dough squares.

GREEN TEA ICE CREAM
Steps:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn't scorch on the bottom. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), set aside to infuse for 10 to 15 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar. Whisking constantly, slowly pour the still-hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. At 160 degrees, the mixture will give off a puff of steam. When the mixture reaches 180 degrees it will be thickened and creamy, like eggnog. If you don't have a thermometer, test it by dipping a wooden spoon into the mixture. Run your finger down the back of the spoon. If the stripe remains clear, the mixture is ready; if the edges blur, the mixture is not quite thick enough yet. When it is ready, quickly remove it from the heat and whisk in the green tea. Meanwhile, half-fill a large bowl with ice water. Strain the mixture into a smaller bowl to smooth it and remove the vanilla bean. Rest the smaller bowl in the ice water and let the mixture cool, stirring often, then continue according to the directions of your ice cream maker.

You can substitute other flavorings for the green tea. Suitable for vegans too! I approximated the amount of the green tea, but feel free to modify to taste. If you use sweetened soy milk, I suggest cutting back on the sugar.

This ice cream recipe uses a can of coconut milk. The use of eggs is optional so it can be vegan. It has a very low GI (glycemic index), so it is diabetic-friendly and ideal for anyone who is watching their weight. Please adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste. I used an ice cream maker, but it is possible to make it without it. For detailed instructions on making ice cream without an ice cream maker, please Google "How to make ice cream without an ice cream maker."

Tips:
- Use high-quality green tea. The flavor of your ice cream will depend on the quality of the green tea you use. Look for a green tea that is fresh and has a strong flavor.
- Brew the green tea properly. To get the best flavor from your green tea, brew it properly. Follow the instructions on the package of your green tea or use this general guideline: heat water to just below boiling (about 175 degrees Fahrenheit), pour the water over the tea leaves, and steep for 3-5 minutes.
- Cool the green tea before using it. Once you have brewed the green tea, let it cool completely before using it in your ice cream. This will help to prevent the ice cream from becoming icy.
- Use a good quality ice cream maker. An ice cream maker will help you to make smooth and creamy ice cream. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make green tea ice cream, but it will be more difficult to get a smooth consistency.
- Let the ice cream set before serving. Once you have churned the ice cream, let it set in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.
Conclusion:
Green tea ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a good source of antioxidants and has a number of health benefits. If you are looking for a new and exciting ice cream flavor to try, green tea ice cream is a great option.
