for some reason, the whole dried and powder don’t taste the same as they syrup. the syrup is molasses-like, super good. haven’t tried to make with powder, but i’d stick with syrup.

yup! i worked many years to get this recipe to work like this!! enjoy it!!!

tamarind would be interesting indeed
that sounds good!

yacon syrup is like agave, won’t dry well in dehydrator
i’d just use blended

I bought yacon syrup and it tastes good
catrienmaxwell on September 27, 2008 at 11:41 pm
OH MY GOODNESS. I absolutely must try this. I’m so excited :)

That looks fantastic. I hope I can find the ingredients here.

I found you really need a good blender to do this – my blender didn’t really work that great.

I went and bought lucuma specially when I heard about this! Is it okay to use agave if I can’t get hold of yacon? And how long will it last in the freezer?
aniphyo on October 17, 2008 at 6:24 pm
gwenhwyfar187 – yes, feel free to use agave instead of yacon syrup. same proportions. will keep as long as any other traditional ice cream, say a month or more in freezer.
shockthesky – it helps to first grind your nuts in to a powder, then place in your blender when using less powerful blenders. :)

Lúcuma isn’t from de Andes of Perú? In fact in my country, Peru, Lúcuma Ice cream is very popular, probably the best flavors of all. Thanks for sharing.

This response was so encouraging to me. I am also trying to change to a raw food lifestyle. I fell off of the wagon today though. Your response made me feel better. Thanks.

Hi Ani! I can’t get lucuma, agave or yacon where I am. Do you have any other recipes for ice cream?
abyssquick on November 13, 2008 at 11:35 pm
Ani, I love your videos. I use lucuma myself. In this video you say it is a root plant, which it is not (maybe you thinking about yacon?). Lucuma is a highland sapote species (pouteria obovata), very closely related to mamey and canistel. Lucuma naturally has very dry flesh, and so traditionally it is dried.
sorry for geeking out- pomology (study of fruits) is my profession., I grow all sorts of fruits. I love what you do here, yours are some of the best raw recipes out there!
aniphyo on November 14, 2008 at 8:22 am
abyssquick-thanks for the correction
i must be misinformed!
will look into this more
thanks

Hi Ani~ My neice has a nut allergy. Any suggestions for cashew substitution? Thanks!
gojiberries1 on January 15, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I saved this one. I would like to know where to get Lucuma.
This looks fantastic. I have to watch my natural sugar intake.
