Kaimaki
Greek ice cream with Chios mastiha, thick and slightly stretchy.
Resinous, fresh and slightly piney mastiha from the island of Chios leads the flavor here, and whole milk and cream wrap it in a creamy sweetness. Kaimaki owes its thick, slightly elastic texture to salep. In this recipe, tara gum replaces the salep. A little Greek getaway that fits in a cup.
