Booza

Emmy makes booza for the first time.

It's Middle Eastern ice cream that stretches like taffy.

The two key ingredients are sahlab, an orchid root, and mastic, a plant resin.

I was told repeatedly that out of thousands of orchids vanilla is the only orchid used for food. And now here's sahlab also salep.

Lies! All lies.



She's experimenting. Here's an expert.



A 500 year-old recipe that his grandmother invented. Something doesn't add up. Maybe everyone lives 200 years. Maybe his grandmother is still alive.  



Many more booza videos on YouTube. [booza]

This stuff is ice cream like a chocolate martini is a martini. No eggs. Not ice cream.

Gelato is not even ice cream and it has eggs.

WTH is wrong with people?
