Black Sesame is my favorite Ice Cream flavor (if done right). It’s a bit less mainstream than Green Tea Ice Cream, but some of the fancier Japanese restaurants serve it, and I could never pass on dessert if it’s on the menu! The taste is hard to describe – creamy, sweet and a tad savory at the same time. It’s often described as having a nutty and earthy flavor, and that’s true but I love it even though I’m not a huge fan of nuts. The key ingredient, Japanese black sesame paste (“Neri-goma”) is a thick sweet black paste which is sold in most any grocery store in Japan. It’s also available\u00a0outside of Japan\u00a0in Japanese grocery stores and online, but I hear it’s very easy to make at home, so that’ll be on my to-do list to try out.<\/p>\n
