Dippin' Dots Ice Cream

What is Dippin' Dots? To answer the question, Dippin' Dots are made from fresh dairy ingredients flavored with fun, fruity, enticing and even exotic flavors. The mixture is frozen almost instantly in liquid nitrogen, a common element in the atmosphere used commercially for flash freezing. After production, Dippin' Dots are packaged and shipped worldwide

In 1988, Dippin' Dots Founder and Chairman Curt Jones changed the way the world enjoys ice cream. Jones, a microbiologist, pioneered the process of cryogenic encapsulation...a scientific way of saying he used super-cold freezing methods to make little beads of ice cream. Not only were the ice cream beads delicious and fun to eat, Jones knew that flash-freezing the ice cream ingredients would lock in flavor and freshness. With those qualities established, Dippin' Dots were ready to take on the world!

A retail store in Lexington, Kentucky...gatherings of friends and family in Jones' hometown in Pulaski County, IL...and locations inside one of the nation's premiere amusement parks, Opryland USA, helped form what Dippin' Dots is today. The ice cream now has a home in thousands of locations worldwide in theme parks, fairs & festivals and franchised store locations.

Beef Steak

Beef Steak is one of my most favorite viand, and is now my kids' all time favorite. The fried potato is from my Mom-in-laws recipe. Since my husband is used to beef steak with fried potato on the side, I've incorporated it with my own.

Ingredients: 1/2 kilo beef (sukiyaki cut), 1 cup soy sauce, about 20 pieces kalamansi, 1 whole (big) white onion, 1 clove garlic, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 2 pieces potato.

Procedure: Marinate beef with kalamsi, toyo and garlic for an hour (longer is better). Fry the potatoes, set aside. Boil the beef, along with the mixture. After boiling, set aside the sauce. Saute the onion, set aside. Quick-fry the beef, then add the sauce. Boil in low heat for about 5 minutes.

I serve it with heart-shaped beef steak brown rice
