Ice Cream Burrito
 

I've given this a lot of thought. And I really think it's possible to make an ice cream burrito. And it could be good!

I think it should contain ice cream and cooked white rice, maybe brown rice, or better still, puffed rice, like rice krispies. It should have a little chopped cilantro in it because cilantro goes good with just about anything. Pinch of salt.

Like fried ice cream, the trick is, how do you make the outside hot without melting the inside?

Very simple. You sort of combine the ice cream, puffed rice and cilantro beforehand, sort of mush them up and soften everything. You have to do this to make the ice cream flexible enough. If it's not, you'll waste the precious heat energy in the tortilla trying to make the ice cream conform while you're folding the tortilla.

So you get your ice cream mixture nice and flexible. Then you heat the flour tortilla on the stove like people do, right on top of the flame, and when it gets hot and puffy, you spoon a big glob of the ice cream mixture on there and fold it up real quick. Serve. You got a winnah! What do you think?

I dunno...Sounds about as good as onion pudding might be...I think I'd pass...

Onion pudding. Now that's crazy! This is different--it's totally viable. I have given it some more thought. And you know, supposedly there is a chili-flavored ice cream. I read about it on a chili pepper website some time back. (There's a garlic ice cream too. I guess there's probably a flavor for every food-maniac out there.)

So really, to make this really a variation on the true burrito, chili flavored ice cream would be appropriate.

If this is too weird for you folks, I would be willing to consider a jello burrito and a pudding burrito. Don't laugh! If you were really hungry and someone came by with a jello burrito, you'd take it, and you'd say thanks.

(POSTSCRIPT. And really, people think of weird things I would never eat. Blood pudding is one. There's no way I would eat blood pudding! Why, it probably tastes like having a nosebleed. It would give me nightmares to eat blood pudding.)

the thought of warm icecream sounds a bit weird to me, someone mentioned it before, or something like deep fied icecream, think it would get a bit messy and drip everywhere.

I want to get some of these, they're new and come in vanilla and caramel flavours atm...

What.....what IS that??

it's a Haagen Daz Cream Crisp...

Oh, that looks so gooooooood!

(pause)

They paid you to do that, didn't they?? You work for those people!

I wish I did work for them... sod company shares, I want a lifetimes supply of icecream :D

Re: Ice Cream Burrito
 

my friend allready tried it. He had the munchies like a mad man, so he rolled up some vanilla ice cream in a tortilla. tasted like shit.

Oh darn it! I was sure that one would work. Gotta scratch that one off the list now. He didn't add the salt or chili powder or cilantro, though, did he? I bet he didn't.
