I wouldn't try this where I live now because I worry about pollution. It was delicious. The texture is very unique. It's worth a try, for sure -- at least once in your life.<br /><br />Freshly fallen, clean snow is required. Hey -- don't knock the yellow snow! It is a rare delicacy and can only be found if you go where the huskies go (ask Nanook!).<br /><br />Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05565870880613723384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-57414092338262709422011-02-23T14:46:59.895-05:002011-02-23T14:46:59.895-05:00Eating snow is a sin.Eating snow is a sin.John Phughtpeanesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-65789980574663651532011-02-16T17:10:38.974-05:002011-02-16T17:10:38.974-05:00I'm surprised at the commenters that have neve...I'm surprised at the commenters that have never heard of it! I grew up in TX, where a good snow was pretty rare, but we made sure to have snow ice cream. This year, we got lots of snow in MO, and had snow ice cream several times. It's a must. But your way to mix it, is too hard. I mix all my milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, raw egg (sometimes), chocolate syrup, or whatever, in a bowl, so it is fully blended, then start adding snow until it is just right. Much easier, than trying to get that vanilla all mixed in, the way you did it. But either way, it is a treat worth having.Resahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06238485839455176579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-16532828241125771832011-01-18T09:57:17.361-05:002011-01-18T09:57:17.361-05:00I can't believe I never thought of doing this ...I can't believe I never thought of doing this before.

I never heard it referred to that way before and never knew anyone who ate their snow with sweetened condensed milk, vanilla or anything like that - where I grew up, we poured maple syrup over it. Now you all have me curious ... I've got plenty of fresh snow, might have to experiment. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-22950281121051322632011-01-11T23:41:36.544-05:002011-01-11T23:41:36.544-05:00Folks, look up ais kachang!

It's basically a malaysian snow cone with red beans and corn and palm seeds (attapchee) and different kinds of jellies. <br /><br />Get snow, obtain above ingredients, add syrup and sweet milk, enjoy.

We sledded, tobogganed down a ramp from the deck to the frozen lake, built snowpeople on the lake, went on a snow picnic, had a golfing party on the lake, BUT we forgot to make snow ice cream!!!! If our daughter suddenly remembers, she'll be back on the next flight!!

We have our own halo-halo (mix-mix) mixture which included brown mung beans, sweetened jackfruit, etc. we topped the shaved ice with sweetened condensed milk, then a scoop of violet colored sweet potato ice cream. Topped next with our version of creme brulee called leche flan and finally a cherry on top !! Hmmm, Hmmm good !!! I have done it with snow as a young adult in Toronto.
