    Espuma isn't horrible. It sounds delicious. It's just Spanish for foam.

    As has been said 'espuma' is the Spanish word for foam. This is a technique created by Spanish chef Ferran Adriá at elBulli in 1994. I don't know what's horrible about that. Horrible words for me are ethnocentrism and ignorance, for example.

    I made foam using xanthan gum and methyl cellulose and I added way too much and it came out like Nickelodeon Gak! Foam for DAYS! Back to the drawing board. I have used egg whites which do nicely but the foam has a shelf life. I am by no means an expert.

    Is there a way to do it without the sifon thing? they are not so expensive but its more about saving kitchen space. Deepfryer, wok pan, icecream maker, juicer, mixer, pasta machine, a lot of space for someone who lives in a metropolitan area!

      You don't need an expensive gear to carbonate things for you. Ancient peeps did thick cream in clay pots. All you need is a good fouet and a ton of elbow grease.

    • @simplemann2165
      @simplemann2165 2 роки тому

      That's because they didn't insult your language. Again, when one isn't affected, one doesn't care. You probably have no Spanish/Latin/Portuguese blood, or just don't care. :/

    Foams are more pretentious than functional.

    • @joaomc79
      @joaomc79 8 років тому +2

      Actually they are functional, having more air increases flavor perception. If you drink a juice and taste the same juice in foam it has more flavor.

    • @andriegilsson6623
      @andriegilsson6623 8 років тому +2

      Sorry, not trying to be dick but that's bullshit. Having a condensed sauce or what ever you're serving is going to be a lot more concentrated in flavor than foams. Go speak to a michelin star chef and ask him what he thinks about foams. I'm not saying they are all terrible, but 90% of the time foam is just a gimmick.
