I made something of a "poor-man's" green tea ice cream tonight. With a mortar and pestal, I finely ground about 2 Tablespoons worth of sencha until it was as finely powdered as I could get it. I dished up vanilla ice cream as I would normally, then I sprinkled an even layer of powdered tea over the surface of the ice cream. The flavor blends in each spoonful as I eat it, and I could use the extra tea to powder over some of the lower layers. It makes a fun and slightly exotic alternative to sprinkles or chocolate. Now I wonder what other herbs would work well like that... Mmmm, the experiment-y goodness!

Now I'm wishing I had some ice cream on hand. I'll just have to settle for my fruit & cool-whip. :)
