Gelato-tasting in the Mr. Food Test Kitchen. As they say, "It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it!"
I have to admit that tasting liver or Reuben recipes first thing in the morning isn’t the most appetizing way to start the day, but tasting gelato flavors in the middle of the afternoon…well, that’s another story!
When the test kitchen staff asks the rest of our team to come to the kitchen for another tasting, we never know what they’re going to have for us to try. When we were asked to taste gelato flavors recently, we were all ready and willing to be guinea pigs!
I’ve been a fan of gelato since way before the book and movie “Eat, Pray, Love,” though I have to admit that, when I read this book, I decided that a trip to Italy is a MUST, just so I could do what the main character did and eat gelato as many times as I want every day…because IT’S THERE!
Back here, in the “real world,” taste-testing keeps life interesting and is an important part of recipe development for the Mr. Food TV show. Plus, it helps us determine the right companies and manufacturers to work with for other Mr. Food ventures. It’s also one more perk of being part of the Mr. Food team. As for me, I vote to keep the gelato tests going!
