so i have been wanting to start playing with foams, airs, stuff like that for a while… not really because i WAS really into molecular gastronomy, mostly just to try something new.  turns out i am a food nerd.  we live in an awesome time where some great chefs are expanding what food and cooking can be, defiantly something i want to be a part of and help progress!  even though i just started with this i’m in love… watch out for more to come!

this was my first attempt at a mango ginger foam… i had way too much gelatine, obviously didn’t quite work

round two came out with a better texture but the consistency was more like jello than anything, getting closer…

round 3 was pretty close to what i had in mind, still lots of tweaking but the flavor, texture, and consistancy were good enough to go out.  (the dish that went out had about 1/2 as much foam)

pepper crusted fillet with pineapple chutney, fried fingerling potatoes, brown butter asparagus, and mango ginger foam…  pretty happy with it, we’ll see how it sells through the weekend, i guess that’s the real test.  watch out for what i got next!

Peace, Love, and Grub
