Chef Notes & Flavor Tips
To "Umamify" this recipe: Add 1 tsp. RC Umami Sensations® Kokumi Powder when folding in the banana puree and extracts to dramatically boost dairy richness and enhance warm brown-sugar butter-rum notes.
Serving Suggestion: Drizzle with RC Dulce de Leche Dessert Sauce Mix and garnish with caramelized banana slices or toasted pecan praline.
