Green tea ice cream with ginger cookie chunks
Cookies
This recipe was born out of dinner party necessity. I had a plan - tea brined chicken on steamed bun, asian winter slaw, and of course my favorite starter - Midge's okonomiyaki. The perfect light but flavorful asian style meal. So at Whole Foods this weekend I thought "I'll just pick up some green tea ice cream and ginger cookies and that will be a perfect, easy dessert." Not so much. Apparently they don't sell green tea ice cream at Whole Foods. I'm not sure where I had some - I think that I have - but at this point I had it in my mind that this was what i wanted so I grabbed some green tea and ginger cookies and headed home. I was pressed for time so I went online for recipes but all the recipes I saw used matcha green tea powder. I only had tea bags. So I went basic - infusing milk with the tea bags, sweetening with honey, and adding some greek yogurt to make the final product ligheter and zippier. In the end, I had exactly what I was hoping for - but it is still a mystery as to where I must have had this before.
