Sour Sally, tren masa kini

Siapa tak kenal Sour Sally? Tahukah anda siapa orang yang ada dibalik frozen yoghurt terkenal itu? Muda dan sukses adalah bagaimana seseorang akan menjelaskan Donny Pramono, yang telah berhasil dalam mengubah Sour Sally menjadi bisnis utama dalam industri yogurt beku.

Hanya dalam satu tahun, Donny telah membuka 11 gerai Sour Sally di Jakarta, yang terletak di Senayan City, La Piazza Kelapa Gading, La Codefin Kemang, Mall Taman Anggrek, FX Lifestyle, Pacific Place, Mall Puri Indah, Mall Emporium Pluit, Plaza Indonesia, Grand Indonesia dan Supermall Karawaci.

Ia berencana untuk memperluas usahanya lebih lanjut dalam waktu dekat dengan membuka outlet di Surabaya dan Bandung.

"Selanjutnya ke Jakarta, kami akan membuka cabang di beberapa kota besar di negeri ini seperti yang kita menyadari bahwa ada permintaan untuk yogurt beku tidak hanya di Jakarta tetapi juga di kota-kota lainnya," kata Donny, yang lahir di Jakarta pada tanggal 30 Desember 1981.

Donny memang sangat senang dengan bisnis yang sukses, yang agak berhubungan dengan hari-harinya belajar di Amerika Serikat. Donny, yang tunggal, mengatakan bahwa Sour Sally lahir dari disukainya yogurt beku. Ketika ia lulus ia kembali ke Indonesia dan mulai yogurt beku usahanya, yang tidak umum di Indonesia pada saat itu.

Dengan dukungan penuh keluarganya, Donny melakukan penelitian dan sejumlah tes berbagai yogurt beku untuk menciptakan rasa yang sempurna. Topping segar yang ia ciptakan telah membuat lebih lezat.

Yogurt tidak hanya lezat, Donny mengatakan, juga bermanfaat untuk kesehatan dan dapat membantu mengurangi kolesterol. Orang-orang di Timur Tengah telah dikonsumsi yogurt selama ribuan tahun dan menggunakannya dalam memasak mereka.

Donny mengatakan yogurt adalah mendapatkan popularitas di sini dan jumlah orang yang mengkonsumsinya terus meningkat, seperti outlet-nya. Beberapa kafe bahkan termasuk yogurt dalam menu mereka. "Ada banyak jenis yogurt, yang telah menjadi trendi kehadiran Sour Sally pada tahun terakhir ini. Juga secara aktif memberikan kontribusi terhadap fenomena ini. Fenomena yoghurt, yaitu," katanya.

Ice Cream Social Delivered

What’s better than Ice cream ? Ice cream delivered to your door.

And what’s better than ice cream delivered to your door? A complete ice cream social delivered to your door.

Dandy Don’s sent me their newest creation: an ice cream social for 25 people shipped directly to you. The ice cream social in a box includes 25 individual scoops of ice cream in separate containers, 9 toppings (including hot fudge and caramel), spoons, napkins, tablecloths, and soda jerk hats. There isn’t anything else that you would need for an ice cream social — except for people to eat the ice cream and perhaps some whipped cream.

I particularly liked that they included two containers of m&m’s and crumbled Oreos since most people enjoy those toppings. One of my favorite touches was the crushed sugar cones as a topping. I normally don’t eat crushed sugar cones on my ice cream but now I might start.

Another pleasant surprise was the amount of ice cream in the containers — there was A LOT of it. (Plus enough space was left in the containers to add toppings.) If you’re serving this for kids you’d almost want to cut each scoop of ice cream in half because the scoops were so large.

Lastly, the ice cream itself was very good. My favorite flavor was the cappuccino crunch, followed by vanilla, and then chocolate.

If you’re looking for an easy to assemble party this is a good bet. The price is a little steep, but if you compare it to buying and assembling all of the ingredients and supplies individually or to hiring Ben and Jerry’s to cater your party, it’s not too bad of a deal.

Wasabia Japonica

People think that is a form of wasabi or Japanese horseradish mustard. It is not, although much related to the mustard green. This usually eat with sushi.

Wasabi (wasabia japonica) is a plant that grows almost exclusively in Asia. This is a sushi dressing in the mid-1800s when the sushi makers see that people who take a bit of wasabi was not sick. It turns out that one of nature's best wasabi to kill parasites in fish. Its delicate aroma and sweet tones enhance the flavor of the fish with which it is eaten.
Studies in the United States and Japan make sure that the wasabi inhibit microbes, prevent or help with blood clotting medication, asthma, and it helps with some forms of cancer (JA Depree, TM Howard & GP Savage, Food Research International Vol 31, No5, pp, 329 - 337, 1999). At least one study indicates that it also can help prevent tooth decay (Hideki Masuda, Ph.D. 2000).


A good Japanese restaurant offers fresh wasabi, the best to buy the plant and grind it in place. Most restaurants outside of Japan will give you radishes with food coloring, ask real wasabi and you'll get it in many cases. Once you try the real thing, but you will be able to distinguish the subtle flavors and the many benefits of the property. Picture next to this paragraph shows the difference between fake and real wasabi. The real thing is noticeably "green".


If you manage to get some, real fresh wasabi, it's probably OK for you to take him to the sushi bar to itamae to prepare it for you. This itamae both will produce the traditional wasabi grater made with shark skin, made of steel oroshigane called (as in the photo attached), or made of porcelain and oroshiki called. Both have a slot oroshiki oroshigane and fine lattice, and they used to wasabi, horseradish, or gari (ginger). If the opportunity arises, try fresh wasabi with your sushi. The good news is that you are in for a fantastic treat. The bad news is that at some point you'll end up eating bad substitute wasabi and you will be able to tell the difference. (Eugeneciurana)

Rujak Soto?

Bagi orang Surabaya rujak cingur tentu bukan makanan asing di lidah. Makanan ini sepertinya sudah menjadi identik dengan kota pahlawan ini. Demikian juga dengan soto, sangat mudah ditemukan. Rujak cingur memang enak, soto babat juga tidak kalah nikmat. Lalu bagaimana jika kedua hidangan ini menjadi satu ? Jadilah rujak soto, makanan khas kota paling timur Pulau Jawa, Banyuwangi.

Di negeri Blambangan, rujak soto kebanyakan dijual di warung-warung. Warung yang terletak di depan Stadion Diponegoro di bilangan Jaksa Agung Suprapto Banyuwangi adalah salah satu yang terkenal. Rujak soto merupakan paduan rujak cingur dan soto babat, tapi rujaknya berbeda dengan rujak cingur Surabaya. Selain tidak memakai cingur perbedaan lain terletak dari petis yang digunakan. Petisnya terasa keset dan lebih nikmat dibandingkan petis biasa. Untuk sotonya, mirip soto Madura tapi hanya menggunakan daging babat saja. Saat disajikan, rujak soto tak jauh ubahnya seperti rujak yang disiram soto. Ditambah taburan kerupuk mlinjo dan kerupuk udang menjadi makanan ini makin gurih. Hmm….

Soal kombinasi makanan menjadi satu, rujak soto bukan satu-satunya, karena masih ada hidangan campur-campur khas Banyuwangi lainnya yaitu : Pecel Rawon, Pecel Kare, dan Rujak Bakso (ngga kebayang deh bakso maem ama petis ). Ayo..ayo sempatkanlah mencicipi hidangan two in one ala Banyuwangi ini. (manda la mendol - si jago makan)

Lemak susu penting untuk ice cream

Lemak susu, atau lemak pada umumnya, termasuk dari sumber non0dairy, adalah penting untuk ice cream karena alasan berikut:
* Meningkatkan kekayaan rasa pada es krim * Menghasilkan tekstur yang halus karakteristik oleh pelumas langit-langit * Membantu untuk memberikan tubuh untuk es krim, karena perannya dalam destabilisasi lemak * Membantu dalam sifat mencair yang baik, juga karena perannya dalam destabilisasi lemak * Membantu dalam pelumas laras pembeku selama manufaktur (Non-lemak campuran sangat keras pada peralatan pembekuan)
Keterbatasan penggunaan berlebihan gemuk susu dalam campuran meliputi: * Biaya * Menghambat kemampuan mencambuk * Penurunan konsumsi karena kekayaan berlebihan * Nilai tinggi kalori
Sumber terbaik gemuk susu es krim untuk bumbu kualitas tinggi dan kenyamanan adalah krim manis segar dari susu manis segar. Sumber-sumber lain termasuk mentega atau lemak susu anhidrat.
Selama pembekuan es krim, emulsi lemak yang ada dalam campuran akan mengguncang sebagian atau penurunan sebagai akibat dari penggabungan udara, kristalisasi es dan gaya geser tinggi dari pisau. Ini sebagian berputar diperlukan untuk mengatur struktur dan tekstur es krim, yang sangat mirip dengan struktur whipped cream. Pengemulsi membantu mempromosikan proses destabilisasi, yang akan dibahas di bawah.
The trigliserida dalam lemak susu memiliki berbagai macam mencair, +40 ° C sampai -40 ° C, dan dengan demikian selalu ada kombinasi lemak cair dan kristal. Perubahan ini padat: Rasio cair dapat mempengaruhi jumlah destabilisasi lemak yang terjadi. Menduplikasi struktur dengan sumber lain lemak yang sulit.
Sayuran (non-dairy) lemak yang digunakan secara luas sebagai sumber lemak dalam es krim di Inggris, bagian dari Eropa, Timur Jauh, dan Amerika Latin tetapi hanya sampai tingkat yang sangat terbatas di Amerika Utara. Lima faktor yang sangat menarik dalam pemilihan sumber lemak adalah struktur kristal lemak, tingkat di mana mengkristal lemak selama kondisi suhu yang dinamis, profil suhu lebur tergantung dari lemak, terutama pada suhu dingin dan freezer, isi leleh trigliserida tinggi (yang dapat menghasilkan lilin, mouthfeel berminyak) dan rasa dan kemurnian minyak. Adalah penting bahwa tetesan lemak mengandung rasio antara cairan: lemak padat pada saat pembekuan. Sulit untuk menghitung rasio ini karena tergantung pada sejumlah faktor komposisi dan manufaktur, bagaimanapun, 1 / 2 sampai 2 / 3 lemak kristal pada 4-5oC adalah aturan, baik bekerja. Kristalisasi lemak terjadi dalam tiga langkah: pelewat-dinginan untuk mendorong nukleasi, nukleasi heterogen atau homogen (atau keduanya), dan propagasi kristal. 


 Lemak massal, nukleasi didominasi heterogen, dengan kristal diri mereka bertindak sebagai agen untuk kristalisasi nukleasi lebih lanjut, dan pelewat-dinginan biasanya minimal. Namun, dalam suatu emulsi, tetesan masing-masing harus mengkristal independen dari berikutnya. Untuk nukleasi heterogen mendominasi, harus ada agen nukleasi tersedia di setiap tetesan, yang seringkali tidak terjadi. Jadi dalam emulsi, nukleasi homogen dan pelewat-dinginan luas mungkin umum. Campuran minyak sering digunakan dalam pembuatan es krim, dipilih untuk memperhitungkan karakteristik rekening fisik, rasa, ketersediaan, stabilitas selama penyimpanan dan biaya.
Kami baru menyelesaikan studi tentang penggunaan lemak non-susu di desserts beku, yang tersedia di sini. Sebuah campuran 75% dari minyak inti sawit baik difraksinasi atau minyak kelapa dan 25% dari minyak tak jenuh, seperti minyak bunga matahari tinggi oleat, ditunjukkan untuk menghasilkan tingkat optimal lemak, krisis destabilisasi dan rasa, meskipun minyak kelapa bisa lebih lama mengkristal selama penuaan. Campuran lemak susu 50%, 37,5% inti sawit fraksi atau minyak kelapa, dan 12,5% minyak bunga matahari tinggi oleat juga terbukti sangat diterima. (Foodscience)

Ice Cream History and Folklore

Most of the following material has been extracted from "The History of Ice Cream", written by the International Association of Ice Cream Manufacturers (IAICM), Washington DC, 1978. As you will note below, however, much of the early history of ice cream remains unproven folklore.

Once upon a time, hundreds of years ago, Charles I of England hosted a sumptous state banquet for many of his friends and family. The meal, consisting of many delicacies of the day, had been simply superb but the "coup de grace" was yet to come. After much preparation, the King's french chef had concocted an apparently new dish. It was cold and resembled fresh- fallen snow but was much creamier and sweeter than any other after- dinner dessert. The guests were delighted, as was Charles, who summoned the cook and asked him not to divulge the recipe for his frozen cream. The King wanted the delicacy to be served only at the Royal table and offered the cook 500 pounds a year to keep it that way. Sometime later, however, poor Charles fell into disfavour with his people and was beheaded in 1649. But by that time, the secret of the frozen cream remained a secret no more. The cook, named DeMirco, had not kept his promise.

This story is just one of many of the fascinating tales which surround the evolution of our country's most popular dessert, ice cream. It is likely that ice cream was not invented, but rather came to be over years of similar efforts. Indeed, the Roman Emperor Nero Claudius Caesar is said to have sent slaves to the mountains to bring snow and ice to cool and freeze the fruit drinks he was so fond of. Centuries later, the Italian Marco Polo returned from his famous journey to the Far East with a recipe for making water ices resembling modern day sherbets.

A newly published book, by Caroline Liddell and Robin Weir, Ices: The Definitive Guide, publ. by Hodder and Stoughton, 1993, ISBN 0-340-58335-5, suggests that the historical basis of these tales is skeptical.

What follows is from the opening of the first chapter of their book:

Most books are full of myths about the history of ice cream. According to popular accounts, Marco Polo (1254-1324) saw ice creams being made during his trip to China, and on his return, introduced them to Italy. The myth continues with the Italian chefs of the you Catherine de'Medici taking this magical dish to France when she went there in 1533 to marry the Duc d'Orleans, with Charles I rewarding his own ice-cream maker with a lifetime pension on condition that he did not divulge his secret recipe to anyone, thereby keeping ice cream as a royal perogative.

Unfortunately, there is no historical evidence to support any of these stories. They would appear to be purely the creation of imaginative nineteenth-century ice-cream makers and vendors. Indeed, we have found no mention of any of these stories before the nineteenth century.

They go on to refute the claims about Marco Polo, Catherine de'Medici, and Charles I (in particular, while the IAICM reference credits DeMirco as the Charles I chef, apparently while other various sources credit 10 different men, there are no records of such a pension being paid to any of Charles I's cooks).

They do go on in their book to discuss history for which there is a record, with (I think) the earliest written record being something made in China.

Chris Clarke, in his 2004 Royal Society of Chemistry mongraph "The Science of Ice Cream", points out quite correctly that the history of ice cream is closely associated with the development of refrigeration techniques and can thus be traced in several stages:

1. Cooling food and rink by mixing it with snow or ice;
2. The discosvery that dissolving salts in water produces cooling;
3. The discovery (and spread of knowledge) that mixing salts and snow or ice cools even further - mid to late 17th century - the inclusion of cream in the water ices also evolved around this time;
4. The invention of the ice cream maker in the mid 19th century;
5. The development of mechanical refrigeration in the later 19th and early 20th centuries - which led to the development of the modern ice cream industry. (foodscience)
