Frost Donuts held a contest for a new summer recipe. I entered with the Summer Shiso Surprise entry:
“Original bismarck (topped with caramel instead of chocolate) infused with Marjoram injected with Shiso & Green Apple custard and a sprinkle of sea salt. Marjoram would give the outer shell a great floral herb note, and the shiso/green apple combination would be a very refreshing summer flavor! The salt would help intensify the sweet tartness of the entire doughnut. A festive play on the caramel covered apple!”
Although, I didn’t get to be a finalist, I got an honorable mention as the “Most gourmet” doughnut idea. Yay! It makes me happy to know that I have some creative juices when it comes to creating recipes. Maybe….just maybe someday I will come out with a cook book. That idea is WAYYY down the line, but I should try to write some of these down eventually. Good times and I will continue to enter contests such as these to try to keep the creative juices flowing. Bon appetit!
