Cooking instruction summary:

Prepare a bain-marie, which can be a stockpot filled with water until one-third full and set over low heat until water is hot but barely simmering. Combine egg yolks, water and sugar in a metal mixing bowl, then set on top of bain-marie. Beat mixture constantly with a whisk for 7-9 minutes or until mixture is thick, foamy and hot to the touch. Regularly scrape bowl's sides and bottom so every bit of the mixture is evenly beaten. Remove bowl from bain-marie and continue beating for 2 minutes more or until mixture has cooled almost to room temperature. Beat in wasabi and vanilla, then cover with pastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes or until slightly cold. Combine whipping cream and salt in a clean bowl and whip until thick and floppy but not fully stiff. Fold cream into wasabi mixture, a third at a time, folding just until incorporated after each additon. Scrape mixture into a metal cake tin or plastic container, cover and freeze for at least 4 hours. Stir with a whisk after 1 hour, and every 30 minutes after that, to break up large ice crystals. If you're using an ice cream maker, skip steps (5) & (6), add whipping cream and milk into the wasabi mixture and stir well to combine and let stand in the fridge for two hours or until the mixture is very cold. Pour the chilled mixture into ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Churn for about 30-40 minutes till soft ice cream is formed. Spoon the soft ice cream into a container and freeze for 3-4 hours before serving.

Food Joke

VIRUS WARNING**** If you received an e-mail with a subject line of "Badtimes," delete it immediately without reading it! It is the most dangerous E-mail virus yet. It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles. It will demagnitize the strips on all your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access codes, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you try to play. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your beer and leave your dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company coming over. It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere with your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in traffic. Badtimes will make you fall in love with a hardened pedophile. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. Badtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up and leave the hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattress and pillows, it will refill your skim milk with whole. It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. These are just a few of the signs. BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!
