i guess i asked a silly question, when i go to the chinese restaurant i seem to always go when some of the workers are on break and eating their lunch, which is almost always noodles. goddamn those guys slurp that shit up so loudly. nobody is going to notice a big fat guy drinking the cup of wonton broth during all that noise.

Is it a self contained unit or one of those buckets you put in the freezer to freeze up? If its the bucket kind let the thing sit in the freezer for 12 hours at least after every use/cleaning. Ive tried less and just doesnt work(though I dont keep my freezer super cold either). Id also buy an extra bucket, that you can use the bucket as a storage container and still be able to make a different batch.
As far as recipes, I pretty much follow Alton's non custard recipe. IMO from the dozens and dozens of different batches ive made custard and noncustard, custard is better but this comes pretty damn close for half the effort and less ingredients/calories;
2 cups of half n half
1 cup of heavy cream
1 cup of sugar
1/4 to 1/2 cup of coco depending on what kind of coco you have, the darker the coco the less I use
1 tablespoon of pectin
like teaspoon of vanilla? dont measure
Difference is I use pure pectin for the emulsifier instead of the preserves he uses. Although the preserves isnt a bad ingrediant if youre wanting some specific flavors in your icecream, ive done it before and it turned out good. Also when adding things like oreos, fruit to your icecream, do it when youre almost done churning it(depending on how tough what youre adding, tougher = earlier).

almost zero etiquette really, just if you're at a formal party use a spoon instead of drinking from the bowl is about it really.

Sweet. I got exactly what you described, the kind where you freeze the bowl ahead of time (and I got an extra bowl). Thanks for the good info, now the damn thing needs to hurry up and get here.

I couldn't find any good chorizo in town so I went with a hot italian sausage (sigh). I also couldn't find harissa so I used huy fong chili garlic sauce instead (1 tsp). I put in a tbsp of tomato paste just for luck.
Turned out amazing. I give it a 9/10 - would fuck again. I could drink that broth all day.
PS I bought that bowl just for making this dist today. I usually ghettodawg it and eat right out of the pot if no one else is eating them.
