CULINARY FOAMS
Flavored Savory Foams (4 servings)
Trendy flavored foams that are popular with chefs are easy to prepare and are also
very appealing to the eye. They add flavor to savory foods with less fat and fewer
calories than many traditional sauces. To use them, ladle a spoonful onto the foods
just as you would spoon whipped cream onto a dessert. The following recipe,
uniquely suited to accommodate a wide variety of flavors, may be used as a basis for
creating your own delicious combinations.
½ cup fat free, low fat, or reduced-fat milk
¼ teaspoon salt (vital for savory mix)
Up to 2 teaspoons flavored oil (notes follow)
Up to 1 tablespoon minced fresh herb or crumbled dried herb (notes follow)
Put Froth Whip in pitcher. Pour milk into pitcher and press start button. When unit
shuts off automatically, lift pitcher from base and remove lid and Froth Whip. Add
salt, flavored oil, and, if desired, the herb sprinkled evenly around foam. Stir twice
with a spatula just tomixingredients and spoon immediately onto individual servings
of the food.
: Choose a flavor compatible to dish such as white or black truffle oil,
any herb flavor oil (i.e. basil, garlic, tarragon), toasted sesame oil, a chili oil, or one of
the various roasted nut oils (i.e. hazelnut, walnut, almond). You can also add extra-
virgin olive oil, browned butter, or melted butter. More oil than recommended in the
recipewilldeflate the foam.
: You may flavor the foam with just herbs, but adding oil or
butter to the herb gives greater depth of flavor. Parsley foam goes with anything. Use
fresh cilantro with toasted sesame seed oil or chili oil. Use basil, thyme and/or
tarragon with truffle, hazelnut or almond oil. Use dill with chili oil or butter.
(spooning or pouring onto individual servings):
: truffle, basil, garlic foams
: chili , basil, garlic, oregano foams
: chili, basil, garlic, oregano foams
(i.e. lamb chops): Season foam with an herb used in
the recipe. For example, if tarragon is on chops, or lemon, use tarragon and
toasted sesame or chili oil in the foam plus a little lemon peel.
: A full recipe of foam will flavor 2 potatoes. Try with green
onions, chives, basil and/or dill.
: Flavor foam with some of the same seasonings used in soup and a
compatible flavored oil such as herb, garlic or chili. Spoon or pour foam onto
puréed soups such as spinach, golden squash, thick tomato, thick white potato,
broccoli and cheese, or bean soups. Use a chili oil flavored foam for thick white
clam chowder.
