ICE CREAM, IRISH STYLE
Posted by: Turkey Hill Team
Just wanted to give you all a heads up about another great ice cream blog worth reading (they're rare, but they do exist). It's called Ice Cream Ireland, and it's written by a man named Kieran Murphy who runs two ice cream shops in Ireland.
According to Kieran, his blog is “all about making, eating, pondering about and enjoying sweet things by an Irish ice cream man and chocoholic”. Sounds good to us! We like it because in addition to talking about ice cream, it also includes lots of great recipes and stories about life in the small town of Dingle, Ireland.
Read all about it here: www.icecreamireland.com.


If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.

Our family loves your ice cream so I was delighted to find your website. I was equally delighted to find a link to the Irish website and the beautiful tour of the Irish countryside. Great job Turkey Hill, I plan to visit your site often

January 22nd, 2007 at 6:01 pmthanks for the tip - I don’t think I had any ice cream while in Ireland, but I’ll have to try some next time - they even have flavors with Irish Cream liquer, whiskey, Guinness, and even Brown bread!
All the dairy products in Ireland were so fresh and flavorful that I’m sure the ice cream is heavenly (just like Turkey Hill’s!)
January 9th, 2007 at 1:29 pmSorry about that John. It sounds like your Cherry Fudge Ripple may have been a victim of “heat shock.” (For more on heat shock, check out this entry: http://icecreamjournal.turkeyhill.com/index.php?itemid=15)
Essentially, heat shock occurs when ice cream is allowed to melt (even slightly) and refreeze. The result is a grainy, icy texture. This could have happened in the store where you bought it or in your freezer at home, but it’s hard to say for sure.
Members of our Research & Development Team and Quality Assurance Team go to great lengths to ensure that that each batch of ice cream is of the highest quality. We hope that you continue to enjoy Turkey Hill ice cream, and if you have any other concerns, please let us know.
