@mightymite Actually, for ice cream? A really good vanilla bean.
now, concretes/frozen custard is a whole other topic ;)
@mightymite Sorry, didn't see the reply - a concrete is a blended frozen custard. Think DQ Blizzard except with frozen vanilla or flavored custard instead of soft serve.
Frozen custard has egg yolk solids in the recipe, and has a richer mouth feel.
Frozen custard has spoiled me to most ice cream lol It's closer to gelato than ice cream, but with more butterfats.
@mightymite Here's an article and Yes, I am in St Louis!!

@mightymite I'm laughing at the pictures, tho. One is a milkshake and the other is a sundae!! neither of them are concretes!!!
@kismatt I'm curious about the term "concretes"...never heard that used before. Is that a regional thing?
