I found that things were, in general, simply way too cold - even after letting them warm up a bit, and several of the dishes were far more interesting after letting them return to near room temperature. Of course, some of the things, like a liquid alcohol center, are near impossible to make via any other method. The frostbite on the tongue though, is just annoying...
