This is a yummy adult dessert. 3 ripe bananas, cut up 2 cups mango juice 1 ripe habanero chile 1/3 cup sugar zest and juice of half a lime Heat the sugar with the mango juice until the sugar dissolves. Add remaining ingredients and let cool. Wizz it up in a blender. Chill it in the fridge for a couple of hours. Put it in your ice cream maker and let it do its thing. Freeze. Best to serve a scoop in a margarita glass swimming in a pool of reposado tequila.
A tip of the hat to Forager Chef Alan Bergo. This is Bergo's forager pub cheese recipe, adapted to lacto-fermented mushroom juice. Check out his website at www.foragerchef.com, and consider buying his book, The Forager Chef's Book of Flora: Recipes and Techniques for Edible Plants from Garden, Field And Forest. It's a keeper. As an artisan baker, I am also, always, a sucker for a good schmear. This most definitely qualifies. Pub cheese and friends 4 oz. cream cheese, softened. 8 oz grated sharp cheddar or other cheese of your liking. 2 small or one large minced garlic clove 1/2 cup sour cream a splash of hot sauce 2 tablespoons lactofermented suillus or bolete juice OK, so put the cream cheese and cheddar in your food processor and wizz it up. You will need to scrape down the sides a time or two. Add the sour cream, garlic, hot sauce and mushroom juice. Process until it is a smooth and homogeneous spread. The juice contributes a flavor that is only background in shroomin
