Triple Motion

Fig ice cream (despite the incredulous ones)

Thibault — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 19:24:08 +0000

This week end, Dear Old Pat came to visit. Having lived with Peter, he shares our ice cream frenzy, and insisted for doing one batch. No need to say it twice! I had been wanting to make fig ice cream for a while. I’ve been told this was not a good idea, considering the very light [...]

Lemon sorbet

Thibault — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 16:14:46 +0000

It’s been a while since we’ve made that one, but never too late to write a post! After the more-than-disappointing lemon ice-cream we made in Carbisdale Castle during our Hebridean trip (the lemon juice curdled the milk, and we ended up with a gross yoghurt-flavoured ice cream… and yet our roommate shouted “It’s the best ice [...]

Blaeberry Sorbet

Peter Gerard — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 12:52:17 +0000

There was once a dream of the perfect blueberry sorbet. Deliciously intense flavour, luxuriously smooth texture. Purity in frozen decadence. Strange that this website began with the story of a failed recipe attempt. But Triple Motion is not simply about successes – these are ice cream adventures, experiments with ingredients and flavours, the never-ending quest for [...]

Raspberry Ice Cream

We recently made a tangy and creamy batch of raspberry ice cream. I’ve gotten into the habit of doing raspberry as a sorbet, so this was an interesting and thoroughly enjoyable return to a recipe I haven’t done in a long time. For the half-gallon freezer: a large punnet of raspberries 600 ml of double cream 1 egg + [...]

We got 4 Stars!

So the Fringe is now pretty much over, and that means no more free ice cream for the foreseeable future… But we didn’t get away without some praise. “Three Weeks” gave the Lemon Custard Comedy Club a 4-star review. Big up Dee and her comedy minions! Lemon Custard - Free Dee Custance / PBH’s Free Fringe The Free Fringe [...]

Abricot and almond ice cream

Thibault — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 22:20:32 +0000

Another interesting element has made its appearance in the quest for the nut ice cream: almond milk. We’ve discovered this peculiar liquid in an organic shop, first for drinking but then, on account of its slight bitterness, for using in an ice cream. Abricot seemed to be the fruit to go with, sweet, delicate… And almond/abricot [...]

Daim Bar Ice Cream at the Fringe

Peter Gerard — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 22:59:47 +0000

Back for another helping of ice cream and comedy at the Lemoncustard Comedy Club, we followed on the previous week’s successful chocolate chip cookie dough. I don’t often do chunky style ice creams, but am becoming a big fan. My friend John was shopping at some obscure Scandinavian furniture shop and had the epiphanic idea to [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream at the Fringe

Peter Gerard — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 20:16:30 +0000

Back at the Fringe last week we decided to spice things up a bit for the Lemon Custard Comedy Club. A few days before, Leo met Steph, a nice Canadian selling cookies, and invited her to combine powers with the White Mountain. I couldn’t help thinking about Ernie and the Cookie Monster sharing milk and cookies [...]

Our first savoury ices: Tomato Ice Cream & White Stilton Ice Cream

Peter Gerard — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 00:23:43 +0000

For some considerable time we have been discussing the possibilities of savoury ice creams. While I know this concept may strike fear into the hearts of many, especially those long devoted to the Russell Recipe, the White Mountain’s reign of glory must eventually encompass all courses of a meal. So finally we have turned our debates [...]

Redcurrant and gooseberry sorbet

Thibault — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 21:47:30 +0000

I know I’m going to be called a dairy fat heretic, but I’ve decided to carry on the sorbet trail. Moreover, it seems to me that summer rhymes with sorbet… and that red fruits also rhyme with sorbet (which does not necessarily mean that summer rhymes with red fruits). It happened that my grandfather told [...]
