Love this guy, brilliant stuff
A wild Barry!
Wow 11 years later I randomly find Barry's comment here haha
"do not touch them with your fingers"
-pokes dry ice-
Just nipping down to my local shop, milk, eggs, bread, liquid nitrogen, you know, the usual stuff.
It's actually dry ice, Mr Smarty Pants.
There are plenty of suppliers on the internet, It costs about £3.50 per kilo and I'm pretty sure it doesnt matter how much dry ice you have as it is also used as a cleaning product.
Thanks Heston, another Great food Idea, love your work,
@PhsycedelicPhish: We went for it anyway, using the pre-frozen centre element of the icecream machine we simply used a whisk and a spatula until it had a slush consistency, put the whole lot back in the freezer for another hour then continued the process. For perfectionists like Heston Blumentahl the difference may be present, but our sorbet turned out as smooth and perfect as we've never tasted one before. This is also a point Heston makes himself: Just go for it and let yourself inspire!
Chef Blumenthal sure knows his quenells.
My cousin and I tried this yesterday, using strawberries instead of blackcurrant, it was BRILLIANT! Extremely easy as well, highly recommended.
First we tried a local courier service, but they had run out... They then contacted a local welding firm, who stored a lot of it for cooling, eh, stuff. They were more than happy to help us by selling a few kilos of it :)
"Now you might be wondering why on earth I'm putting vodka in"
No. You're Heston Blumenthal.
I want to see Heston make sorbet with dark energy...
First time I’ve heard him say his own name.
I managed to find it very easily, and it is VERY easy to make at home. I had the best results using a whisk instead of a mixer.
Try contacting a local welding firm, that's how I did it.
Where can i get dry ice
@RubixCubeStar Exactly! Cant get it here without some special licence.
'Cold energy' hahahahaha
I love heston and im straight as a knife
Does he polish his head?
Yeah with car wax
That was 'Dry Ice' frozen CO2, not liquid nitrogen.
But yeah Heston does have a love for using liquid nitrogen in the kitchen :P
Uh sure... I'll just pull out some of the dry ice I have lying around to make this sorbet.
Nevertheless, it looks so yummy! ^_^
Yes that was the one thanks!
Thats why he has a restaraunt so you can eat it there.
Cold is not energy, it's the lack of energy
Yes i always store a tank of dry ice under my kitchen sink. What would i have done without it...
@BLOOD2298 Derrr lol. Ok, good! Chem is no walk in the park tho! Good luck son
yep to make a good sorbet you need to attain cold fusion! didn't you know?
@MusicalAndTall yep and im pretty sure its chemistrey he uses to aid him, and thats what i mwanting to take next year =)
to all the kids out there, there is no such thing as cold energy, only bad science! =)
where the hell am I going to get dry ice from SERIOUSLY
@dhridhri IN THE FRIDGE... Oh wait...
dude don't forget the black truffle
Correct. We agree then. :)
@megoraxos, dry ice is only carbon dioxide in it's solid state, there's no chemical or other substance in it.
Im doing this for. project even though its about science and we are not making innovations. The teachers lied to us. Also, the competition was like 10 years a go so idk why my teacher chose this
Even if I could get dry ice, how am I going to store it at -78C
@urbex2007 you can buy it from places like smart and final. or ralphs. just ask to see if they have it
dont like the use of fructose so much. doesnt it just add sweetness? y not sugar/ sweetner? as a diabetic its always alerted me when checking back of pack as does more to sugar levels (then sugar!). oh well love your work heston thanks
Why fructose and not sugar?
Its about the freezing point of the sugar and sweetness level, the more sugar you use the less firm your sorbet will be. Fructose is 3x the sweetness level so you are using 30% the "sugar" to achieve the same sweetness meaning your sorbet will be firmer and less liquid at standard freezing temperatures for food service.
@urbex2007 Actually 1 out of 3 grocery stores in my town usually sell dry ice and second its to me twice as easy to make then fooling around with some as seen on tv ice maker or some shit you bought at walmart.
But where's the fizz?!
is that all u get?
O dear. The liquid nitrogen man.
Wonder why your putting vodka in? NO HESTON! Thats what you do! You do things that noone else would even think of, so I'm not suprised. However, this does look delicious.
Alcohol is typically used as a flavor conductor in foods, for frozen desserts its a way to make the firmness of the dessert regulated. It's the same reason you use Fructose, instead of sugar you get the same sweetness but you use 1/3 the amount of sugar which can cause too much softness in sorbets and ice cream especially after churning.
@mrjules2008 fructose gives more of a natural fruity sweetness than sucrose.
@urbex2007 dry ice is quite cheap, you'll be surprise!
But apparently his knowledge of thermodynamics is limited. "Cold energy" is a bit of a mis demeanor.
Misnomer, you mean?
oh, dry eyes. way to put a spanner through the works there heston :/
I can answer all your questions with 2 words: 'Google it'.
Hes too methodical for me. It drives me nuts
Why would you boil water and fructose just in order to dissolve the fructose? Just stirr it a bit.. then you won't have to wait for it to cool again either.
