Crossy Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 No different to the Dutch putting chocolate sprinkles on just about everything (toast, french fries etc). Personally I rather like the corn and beans in the sweet dishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeaceBlondie Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 The corn in the ice cream really surprised me. I worked and lived among Mayas, whose ancestors invented corn, and that's one thing they hadn't thought of yet. Corn for salad? American salad usually leaves the corn as a side vegetable. KFC here has a corn salad now. When my sister-in-law from Weisbaden Germany migrated to south Texas, our Anglo mother-in-law asked Ingeborg to make a 'salad' for the dinner meal. Imagine the surprise when it was a dish of green beans and vinegar!! What color or kind of beans is in Thai ice cream - dark red? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also black beans "tua dam" and green beans which I think are mung beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why they eat corn/bean in ice cream whereas in European country, we eat that for salad? ...maybe because they're different ;-) Some Thai or Thai-Chinese people probably don't understand why the corn and beans have ice cream. (I suspect they've been eating beans and corn for dessert a lot longer than they've been eating ice cream) Hey, I saw something on the Korean (or maybe Japanese) television station the other day: brittle sweet corn that you could eat raw straight off the stalk. Someone bred (or modified) a variety with super high brix but I can't find anything on the web -- does anyone have more information on this?

Totster Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I'll admit the first time I had a corn "ice lolly" I was a little aprehensive... but it surprising tasty, also I do have a liking for the ice cream in a bread roll, covered with beans and condensed milk.. totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxm88 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 No but do you have more information on this? Looks disgusting, don't it? My neighborhood motorcy satay vendor has yet to offer these, but here's hoping!

Someone bred (or modified) a variety with super high brix but I can't find anything on the web -- does anyone have more information on this? A little more on this corn: apparently it's a super sweet corn that was developed in the States but was too hard to farm, so the Japanese took it and farmed it and called it "Mirai". In the last few years it's been re-introduced back the States to rave reviews (and reports of people driving 100's of kilometres to get some). It's so sweet it can literally be eaten raw. Is anyone growing this stuff in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmeriThai Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 (edited) Corn and bean ice cream might sound a bit strange, but there are much stranger flavors than that which can be found elsewhere around the world, such as cactus ice cream, garlic ice cream, or chili ice cream. The Japanese concoct some of the oddest flavors I've ever heard of. http://bertc.com/japanese_ice_creams.htm Anyone care for a big scoop of yummy octopus ice cream?
