Two posts ago I wondered aloud what exactly to do with Lemon Basil. I spent a full hour on The Google Machine trying to find a recipe that was actual "Lemon Basil" not Lemon and Basil, which is completely different. I learned that Lemon Basil is popular in Laotian cooking and curries. But recipes for a Laotion Curry were not to be found. A little more diddling around and I discovered that Lemon Basil is very similar to Thai Basil. This changed everything. Suddenly I had a term that The Google Machine could recognize and it didn't take me long to find This. Ice Cream! Ice Cream... genius. Now all I needed was an ice cream machine to turn this:
Into a delectable summer treat.
