I really love the flavor of mastic. It has a slightly sweet flavor with some pine notes thrown in. I am new to using the resin as a spice and trying to get a feel for how it works best. I made some sugar cookies the other day and used mastic instead of vanilla and I really liked it. Gave the cookies a different, subtle quality. Poking around I see recipes for mastic ice cream and other desserts. One recipe had people putting a pinch of mastic in whipped cream, which was cool. Can you use it in savory foods? Advice appreciated!
