Whenever Harvard offers the Science and Cooking course, there’s a series of lectures open to the public. Always a lot of fun! One I went to ended up smoking out the entire auditorium and causing them to evacuate the entire building.
@@rapcat1271 I just read online that you can go to many of the Massachusetts universities lectures for free. Harvard MIT and somebody else. Just look it up. But due to Covid I am sure that’s changed!
Yes! There is a Mexican restaurant down the road from me that sells fried ice cream in a fried cinnamon sugar taco shell with chocolate drizzle and a cherry! So yummy!
So good! I also love tempura fried ice creams from sushi/Japanese restaurants. My old job even has tempura fried cheesecake balls with a graham cracker puree underneath...literally *amazing*
I used to make these at an Italian restaurant I worked at years ago. We double coated the balls with our coating which gave a nice crispy crunch after it was fried. We served it with a drizzle of chocolate syrup. And a little bit of whipped cream. Delicious.
I'm a little mad that the equation didn't take into account the temperature differentials but I still was happy to see applied sciences Although for whatever reason I couldn't stop thinking of uranium enrichment through diffusion... Which is weird because I love fried icecream so much that one time I literally cried because they didn't actually fry it they just coated it (I was a kid but still it literally made me sob)
I worked at a Mexican restaurant back in the 80's we made this a lot. Sometime we sprinkled cinnamon and sugar over it after cooking. Or we would drizzle chocolate on it.
The restaurant where I had fried ice cream was Chi Chi’s- it is no longer in business as a restaurant, but some food products are marketed under its name.
@@knucklesskinner253 That's awesome! (I mean that; I'm not just being sarcastic, lol) I've never been good at math. If I really worked at it, I was able to do about average, but it's not something that's ever been easy for me so I avoid everything except very basic stuff. :P But I see your point, and that IS a pretty cool thing!
I taught science at a charter school for 3 years, and one of our chemistry labs was baking cookies and talking about the science behind how the protein in the dough is changed by heat, how creaming the sugar in the butter creates a barrier that stops the sugar from dissolving so that it can caramelize, and how different fats melt at different temperatures changing the rate of spread/thickness of finished cookies. Then we ate our lab cookies. Every student loved that lab.
She reminds me of my third grade teacher who I absolutely loved. I never had a teacher or professor like that since. Emmy would make such a good teacher. Her calming personality fits it so well!
I cannot go to a Mexican restaurant without ordering this for dessert omg love it. For anyone who might not be very good at the maths the time should be the same no matter what size balls you make. I like a lot of crunch so I would make smaller balls. the equation only took into consideration the thickness of the coating not the diameter or radiuss of the ball
One time (as a kid) I ordered it and it was just rolled in cornflakes not fried and I literally cried like sobbing This dish is so beautiful and they used its name to make such a garish mockery of it that it brought me to tears
No lie, I feel like you would be a great science/math teacher with how effortlessly you broke down that equation! Your passion for what you do helps so much in stimulating interest in the thing you are making. Keep up the great work!
I worked at Chi-Chi’s (a now defunct, inauthentic Mexican Chain restaurant mostly the U.S. Midwest, and yes, I know the name was unfortunate) for ten years. As you can see from previous comments, our fried ice cream was wildly popular. We didn’t use any eggs in the coating, mostly just crushed cornflakes and cinnamon from what I remember. (All our US stores closed in 2014, so it’s been awhile.) We rolled them a day in advance, froze them in a freezer set colder than what you’d have at home, and fried them for only two or three seconds. So that’s how we did it there.
Wow!! The lil lesson made me really happy. I'm just imagining Emmy's kiddos gathered at the table and their mom teaching them the coolest stuff ever. Learning should be fun!
here in my city we have a large japanese immigrant population, so there’s a lot of japanese restaurants, in many of them i’ve seen this recipe as “ice cream tempura”, in which they coat the ice cream with panko and deep fry them, it’s sooooo delicious!
@@randolpho- now you have my craving one, and thanks to you I'm going on a mission this week in search of Mexican fried icecream. I haven't seen any in the Dayton Ohio area tho , if you know of a place please share with me
@@ARTSIEBECCA basically, it’s a joke that engineers oversimplify real world things so that they fit their equations nicely. In reality, you’d have to use something like Nusselt’s number to find out how the convection was transferring heat into the ice cream ball. It gets complicated because there’s a boundary layer of steam that actually insulates the ice cream ball because the steam is at 212F and the oil is at 350F. One of the reason some places will pressure cook their fried chicken - to keep that water from boiling at the high temp while it cooks, so the juices stay in the meat. So, yeah, even Nusselt number analysis is only +/- 40% accurate in some situations. The number that Emmy is working with is related to the Biot number for a sphere - a dimensionless parameter that helps us make good estimates. You could find the Biot number for a cylinder and use it to estimate the heat transfer into a corn dog. Lol.
This is my all time favorite dessert at a Japanese restaurant, they serve deep fried green tea ice cream with a chocolate drizzle and OMGGGGG it's soooooo good!
I need it even though I can make the recipes up as I go, I was an engineering student and have been a pro-chef but that book will haunt me till I die I love it so much
You are absolutely adorable. Your videos are literally my very favs. You're enthusiasm and sense of adventure is intoxicating. I have learned so much. Can't wait to make this at home with the kiddos. It's one of their favorite treats when we go to our special Mexican spot.
We used to have a Japanese restaurant near us and they had fried green tea ice cream and it was so delicious! The restaurant has been gone for about 10 years and I've not found anywhere that has had that flavor. It's definitely one to try. :)
Emmy, your joy is so incredibly contagious. Thank you for sharing your radiant light with the world ❤️ It cuts through the gloom I have been feeling these past few weeks.
Emmy being excited over cooking and science combined has big homeschool mom vibes. And I mean that as the highest of compliments because this is 100% something my mom would get excited over.
Your mention that it reminded you of breakfast made me recal a story. Some years ago I was in a Golden Corral in Orlando when a British family entered (Mum Dad and 2 boys 10 and 8 ) The boys were sent off to get breakfast and returned with bowls piled high with soft serve ice cream. Mum went crazy and ranted at the boys the eldest tried to speak but was shut down everytime. After several minutes Mum asked what the boys had to say for themselves to which the eldest said there was rice crispies under the ice cream so they had got cereal as told. Mother deflated and Dad doing his best not to disintegrate into gales of laughter
FINALLY someone who put a time stamp on how long to fry the ice cream balls!! Always new the process of freezing the balls etc , but could never get the frying time right... thank you Emmy!!!! 🍨
It was my understanding that there would be no math. Also Chi-Chi's and their honey drizzled fried ice cream was one of my favorite desserts from my childhood in Ohio.
I LOVE how excited you get about learning things. I feel like as adults we forget we can still learn new and exciting things. Or more about things we learned in school. You would make a killer science teacher, btw.
My favorite is the Maillard Reaction. That caramelized deliciousness that makes steaks so mouth watering. It's what turns a plain tasting piece a bread into a whole new wonderful taste. Toast. I love food science!! The best part of the experiments? We get to eat them! 😄 I wonder if you could use Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal as the coating.
Same here i think they put it on top of a fried tortilla with powered sugar. I had a friend who was a waiter there and he would give us free ones lmao.
Emma, I just love you so much! You're such a nerd (saying it with love and understanding). Anyone who gets so excited about discovery is my kinda gal! I get the same way when I begin to understand something. I've always loved math and the excitement you exhibited is exactly how I felt (feel) when I understand something and learning something new. Love your channel. Keep up the good work!
Since you mention it tastes a little like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, I wonder if you could just use that instead of Cornflakes and cinnamon? I bet that would taste so good but I don't know if it would fry right.
your videos are such a soft and pleasant place for my mind to rest (and learn and smile!) 💗 thank you so much emmy for all the loveliness you absolutely RADIATE
I make a fried ice cream pretty close to this, but I mix pulverized Nilla wafers and shredded coconut (and occasionally crushed nuts) in with my cornflakes & cinnamon. Then I drizzle it with a Mexican chocolate sauce before serving. I also dip then in the egg and crumb mixtures 2, sometimes even 3 times, after freezing in between dips. It's always a hit! 💜 btw, I absolutely LOVE your enthusiasm when things work for you!
These look delicious! My sweet tooth is now triggered and I’m fighting the urge to walk in the freezing rain to get something sweet at the gas station behind my house lol
I swear the longer I watch Emmy the more I see just how knowledgeable she is about so many different subjects. Fried Ice cream looks good and also like something they would sell at a fair somewhere
I’ve had it once at a Pasar Malam, it’s like a small scale state fair in the heartlands of Singapore, the one I had was battered instead of a dipped crust type, it was so good!! I’d love to try this version that you made!!
I first had this as a kid in a Mexican restaurant. So good they covered it in whipped cream, chocolate & strawberry drizzle. Thanks for showing how to make it.
There used to be a chain of restaurants called Chi-Chi's. They were known for their fried ice cream and boy was it good!!! I don't know how many restaurants they had, but I know there was at least one in mid Michigan!! Thanks for showing us how to make it! 🧡
I NEEEEED THIS COOKBOOK, thanks for showing this to me Emmy! I’ve watched your videos on a loop while I’m in surgery recovery and you bring me such sunshine and knowledge. I’m sad I stopped watching you for awhile and so lucky that I’ve rediscovered your amazing content
On every Jungle Jim's menu and TGIFridays. LOL Gotta be an eighties kid to know they legend of fried ice cream or as someone else mentioned, Mexican restaurants.
Definitely going to try this! Been making a modified version of fried ice cream forever ever since I had it in a restaurant a long time ago. Not as good as this one, as I coated mine with a thin layer of smooshed pound cake crumbs before battering, but it worked and was the closest thing I could conjure up intuitively without figuring out the exact science behind it. And at the time, I had the hardest time finding a restaurant thin coating recipe, so now that it is more than a decade later, I'm super excited about this.
Emmy! Question! What do you do when you make multiples of food like this? Do you eat it all, give it to ur friends, give it to your kids? It looks really yummy!
I think Emmy should try making an iconic Midwest dish! I wanna see her make a horseshoe! All you need is a slice of white bread, a hamburger patty and French fries (preferably shoestring) and cheese sauce.
@@AnkaaraEnor I totally agree. As a Central Illinoisan it would be so cool to see Emmy make this iconic dish that nobody ever knows about unless you live in the area.
I was really lucky in Grade 9. I had a Science Teacher who used food preparation to demonstrate/explain a lot of the science we were learning. It made learing the theories/equations so much easier and fun. He was for sure a very special kind of teacher, dedicated and innovative and we were so lucky. We won the provincial title for Grade 9 science students that year and I credit him entirely. Nothing better than a teacher who is passionate about what they do. Emmy, in this video, reminded me of him....side-hustle for Emmy, consider being a teacher :D you'd be amazing at it.
Originally the ice cream is breaded with dry cake crumbs (very coarse) , same procedure, just double dipped in the eggwhites / cake crumbs.... slightly longer frying time and u will have a nice thick crispy coating
I’ve always wanted to try fried ice cream but I always feel like the outside would burn fast or the ice cream wouldn’t be covered all the way and it would come out when it’s frying and get into the oil and make a mess. Maybe I’m just a paranoid cooker😭🤚🏼🤚🏼
When it works it's amazing. When it doesn't work you get to clean a lot of really gross sludge and oil out of your deep fryer. And also the counter underneath it.
I usually dip mine in the egg whites and crumb mixtures a second time (sometimes even a third time!) after freezing for a while. It makes the coating thicker and I've never had a problem with leakers. I also add pulverized Nilla wafers and coconut to my cornflake crumbs & cinnamon. I always get rave reviews from whomever I'm making it for, lol
The restaurant I worked at taught me this way, make scoops of ice cream and roll aggressively in finely crushed frosted flakes (frosting melts together and forms a shell) refreeze ball to as cold a temp as you're appliance is capable of. place frozen crusted ice cream in fryer basket, dip in hot oil, count to 15, remove and put in small dish, drizzle with honey, add whip cream, sprinkle of cinnamon and cherry on top. don't remember ever using egg white.
I'm a chem prof. I always use food to explain things to my students. I also use sound effects. Things don't work without sound effects, right? haha. Everyone loves food. I love your channel!
I would be worried that they would burn, since they have a lot more sugar than corn flakes. Also, they're not as crunchy! Maybe a combo would work, hmm
I have made thousands of servings of fried ice cream while working at fairs and carnivals and they're amazingly fun to make in a commercial fryer. But every time I try to make them at home I have one ball that thawed a little and melts and ruins the oil. And BOY HOWDY is the clean-up a nightmare. Still worth it.
Apparently you can use a cornstarch slurry to clean solids out of your oil much faster than straining it, might be worth giving a go next time you make fried ice cream?
I for one love being referred to as 'a beautiful lovely' x I used to order this quite often in a Thai restaurant that I used to go in. In their version, they didn't crush the cornflakes, they were left whole, coating the outside. They also had a sweet, honey like, coating on them. I've also seen this made with a Ferrero Rocher placed in the middle of the ice-cream. Great video as always, Emmy x
I don’t know how but once I went to a restaurant that used tempura batter for their fried ice cream. It was amazing. Best fried ice cream I’ve ever had.

I make a fried ice cream pretty close to this, but I mix pulverized Nilla wafers and shredded coconut (and occasionally crushed nuts) in with my cornflakes & cinnamon. Then I drizzle it with a Mexican chocolate sauce before serving. I also dip then in the egg and crumb mixtures 2, sometimes even 3 times, after freezing in between dips. It's always a hit! 💜 btw, I absolutely LOVE your enthusiasm when things work for you!
These look delicious! My sweet tooth is now triggered and I’m fighting the urge to walk in the freezing rain to get something sweet at the gas station behind my house lol
I swear the longer I watch Emmy the more I see just how knowledgeable she is about so many different subjects. Fried Ice cream looks good and also like something they would sell at a fair somewhere
I remember my Mom making this as a child. Minus the science lol. Our local Tex mex place has this in the menu.
Hi Emmy! Always makes me happy to see your videos! Love fried ice cream. Hope you and your family are safe, happy, and healthy!! 💛
I’ve had it once at a Pasar Malam, it’s like a small scale state fair in the heartlands of Singapore, the one I had was battered instead of a dipped crust type, it was so good!! I’d love to try this version that you made!!
Whr sia
@@malnutritionboy Forgot already, super long ago! I think like 13-15 year ago? Had it once and never seen it ever since
Thank you so much. My favorite dessert. I love it with fresh fruit and a little honey on the fruit.
Dr Sheldon Cooper: Physics and cooking explained in 7 chapters!?! Young Skywalker Emmy you have become a master lol
I first had this as a kid in a Mexican restaurant. So good they covered it in whipped cream, chocolate & strawberry drizzle. Thanks for showing how to make it.
There used to be a chain of restaurants called Chi-Chi's. They were known for their fried ice cream and boy was it good!!! I don't know how many restaurants they had, but I know there was at least one in mid Michigan!! Thanks for showing us how to make it! 🧡
there was one in southeast michigan too! used to go there as a kid because my parents love mexican food
There use to be one in Delaware back in the day
Emmy, you are such a delightful person. So joyful to have discovered your channel. Congratulations on such wonderful contents!
I remember having this as a kid at my favourite Mexican restaurant
I love Emmy, her videos are always interesting. Also, her voice and mannerisms remind me so much of Jennifer Garner!
It's funny coz while she was doing the countdown, I got an Old Spice ad where something blew up in space. 🤣
I NEEEEED THIS COOKBOOK, thanks for showing this to me Emmy! I’ve watched your videos on a loop while I’m in surgery recovery and you bring me such sunshine and knowledge. I’m sad I stopped watching you for awhile and so lucky that I’ve rediscovered your amazing content
Get well soon and welcome back!
@@emmymade 💕💕💕 thanks so much! Looking forward to next video
I wasn't as much a fan of the sunglass frames, all the others suit you quite well, and I thought the first pair my favorite. Thanks for the lesson!
🤓
Oh yes! I’ve definitely been waiting for this one, thank you!!!
On every Jungle Jim's menu and TGIFridays. LOL Gotta be an eighties kid to know they legend of fried ice cream or as someone else mentioned, Mexican restaurants.
Chi-chi's mexican restaurant in the nineties!!! Awesome fried ice cream but not the greatest cuisine.
Fri-i-i-i, fri-i-i-ice cream
@@JenSingtheDragonQueen that was EXACTLY my thought when I clicked on the video!
Definitely going to try this! Been making a modified version of fried ice cream forever ever since I had it in a restaurant a long time ago. Not as good as this one, as I coated mine with a thin layer of smooshed pound cake crumbs before battering, but it worked and was the closest thing I could conjure up intuitively without figuring out the exact science behind it. And at the time, I had the hardest time finding a restaurant thin coating recipe, so now that it is more than a decade later, I'm super excited about this.
I love how excited she gets I feel that on a spiritual level
🙌🏼 🙌🏼 🙌🏼
Love how excited you get over fried ice cream. You’re the best!
What flavor ice cream do Jedi like best?
*Obi-Wan Spumoni* 🤣🤣🤣
Lmao,good one😂
@@andrealee33 😂
Emmy! Question! What do you do when you make multiples of food like this? Do you eat it all, give it to ur friends, give it to your kids? It looks really yummy!
Me too!
I also wondered.
I think Emmy should try making an iconic Midwest dish! I wanna see her make a horseshoe! All you need is a slice of white bread, a hamburger patty and French fries (preferably shoestring) and cheese sauce.
Lolol
I’ve lived in the Midwest my entire life and never even heard of this. I don’t think Chicagoans would eat it.
It's really popular in central Illinois. It was invented in Springfield. I've seen so many but I don't eat them personally
I've suggested this to her before. She NEEDS to make it!
@@AnkaaraEnor I totally agree. As a Central Illinoisan it would be so cool to see Emmy make this iconic dish that nobody ever knows about unless you live in the area.
I was really lucky in Grade 9. I had a Science Teacher who used food preparation to demonstrate/explain a lot of the science we were learning. It made learing the theories/equations so much easier and fun. He was for sure a very special kind of teacher, dedicated and innovative and we were so lucky. We won the provincial title for Grade 9 science students that year and I credit him entirely. Nothing better than a teacher who is passionate about what they do. Emmy, in this video, reminded me of him....side-hustle for Emmy, consider being a teacher :D you'd be amazing at it.
They used to make this at Chi Chi's restaurant...yum
Originally the ice cream is breaded with dry cake crumbs (very coarse) , same procedure, just double dipped in the eggwhites / cake crumbs.... slightly longer frying time and u will have a nice thick crispy coating
I’ve always wanted to try fried ice cream but I always feel like the outside would burn fast or the ice cream wouldn’t be covered all the way and it would come out when it’s frying and get into the oil and make a mess. Maybe I’m just a paranoid cooker😭🤚🏼🤚🏼
When it works it's amazing. When it doesn't work you get to clean a lot of really gross sludge and oil out of your deep fryer. And also the counter underneath it.
Try a batter instead of the cereal crumbs. Maybe that will make you more comfortable.
I usually dip mine in the egg whites and crumb mixtures a second time (sometimes even a third time!) after freezing for a while. It makes the coating thicker and I've never had a problem with leakers. I also add pulverized Nilla wafers and coconut to my cornflake crumbs & cinnamon. I always get rave reviews from whomever I'm making it for, lol
The restaurant I worked at taught me this way, make scoops of ice cream and roll aggressively in finely crushed frosted flakes (frosting melts together and forms a shell) refreeze ball to as cold a temp as you're appliance is capable of. place frozen crusted ice cream in fryer basket, dip in hot oil, count to 15, remove and put in small dish, drizzle with honey, add whip cream, sprinkle of cinnamon and cherry on top. don't remember ever using egg white.
Maybe now that you've seen it done, it will take away some of your fear? Good luck!✌
I'm a chem prof. I always use food to explain things to my students. I also use sound effects. Things don't work without sound effects, right? haha. Everyone loves food. I love your channel!
I wonder what it would taste like if one was to use crushed Oreos instead of Corn Flakes.
I would be worried that they would burn, since they have a lot more sugar than corn flakes. Also, they're not as crunchy! Maybe a combo would work, hmm
@@HelloKittysFriend418 Let's find out who's more brave.
I used to love making these at the last restaurant I worked. They were a birthday treat we would send to tables, and it never got old.
Something tells me Emmy was a teacher in a former life....
She was, for a few years at least...she taught while living in Japan :)
I have made thousands of servings of fried ice cream while working at fairs and carnivals and they're amazingly fun to make in a commercial fryer. But every time I try to make them at home I have one ball that thawed a little and melts and ruins the oil. And BOY HOWDY is the clean-up a nightmare.
Still worth it.
Apparently you can use a cornstarch slurry to clean solids out of your oil much faster than straining it, might be worth giving a go next time you make fried ice cream?
I have a lactose intolerant friend who sells ice cream for a living.
He can’t take it, but he can dish it out.
I for one love being referred to as 'a beautiful lovely' x
I used to order this quite often in a Thai restaurant that I used to go in. In their version, they didn't crush the cornflakes, they were left whole, coating the outside. They also had a sweet, honey like, coating on them. I've also seen this made with a Ferrero Rocher placed in the middle of the ice-cream.
Great video as always, Emmy x
Fried icecream tastes really good :)
I don’t know how but once I went to a restaurant that used tempura batter for their fried ice cream. It was amazing. Best fried ice cream I’ve ever had.
