Come on in 'The Kitchn'
Each week we round up our favorite posts and recipes from our friends at The Kitchn.
This week, the Kitchn reveals a recipe secret for ice cream involving just one ingredient. Ridiculous, right? No intimidating ice cream makers needed either! Just freeze a banana, blend it all up, and bam. Somehow the result is rich, creamy ice cream.
Also on the Kitchn, Southern cheese straws, advice for eating spicy foods, what rice to use in Mexican horchata, and a dessert version of balsamic vinegar.
