RE: hazelnut ice cream/aesthetics of hazelnut skin/bitterness

[Guest guest]

>>>>but would you really notice the skin after grinding them up and

mixing them with other stuff? (especially ice cream!)

-------->YES! lol.

>>>>I never skin

my almonds, which I always eat whole in salads or plain with

tremendous pleasure, yet I sometimes see references to people whining

about almond skins, so I'm wary about the hazelnut case, but I have

no first-hand experience with that...

---->well i think i can whine with the best of them - i do not like nut

skins! LOL. having said that, i DO appreciate bitter tastes, but usually

solo - not mixed with other foods - especially sweet foods.

>>>>heh, if you want *****completely unpalatable**** bitterness, try some

pickled sadao leaves from your local Vietnamese grocer...

------->well, i might try your suggestion if there *were* a local vietnamese

grocer anywhere within a hundred miles of me. LOL
