Yogurt, Spherical-ish...

Carefully measuring water to match the 2g alginate packet I have.


Measuring the packet to ensure that it is as labelled


Degassing the blended alginate, thanks to MuchoBocho for the foodsaver mason jar attachment idea!


Spheres...well, blobs...of yogurt resting in the bath for 2 minutes


Got 9 sphe-blobs...that...tasted a lot like yogurt...


They are much sturdier than I would have expected...


I think I'm going to try it again but add some raita masala and make them much smaller to see how that affects texture. Still not exactly sure how I would use these...or to what effect.

 

I did green tea once for a themed evening,

 

What did you think of it?

 

They were a good bit of fun for the night, texture was interesting till it popped in your mouth, I also like playing with agar agar to do caviar style stuff.
Terrible photo but a little tomato cucumber salad with a balsamic caviar

 

I'm not totally sure what I'm looking at....
or what happened...

 

I really want to try this

 

I admit I'm an immature old fart. I look at those pictures (or ones of foam) and think about the time a friend of mine had to write up an accident report when someone fell and hurt themselves at work.

Cause of accident: Slipped on a loogie.


(And who hasn't played "hock a loogie on a chain link fence.")
