Emulsions: dispersion of fat in liquid, continuous and discontinuous phases. Chocolate Ganache Foams: soy protein mixed with tangerine juice, foam that is extremely light and flavorful with an unctuous texture. Tangerine Air Gels: collagen-based gelatins Strudel Dough and Fruit Cylinders

TYPICAL LENGTH SCALES

  • Atom – molecule – macromolecule – protein/membrane
  • Hierarchical structures that self-assemble: Mesoscopic (going beyond nano)
  • Mesoscopic structures are larger than atoms and molecules

  • Emulsions = a suspension of oil in water
  • Foam = bubbles of gas in a liquid
  • Gases and liquids behave as solid

Versawhip: All-purpose recipe 200g fruit puree 20g sugar 1.2g versawhip 2.2g xanthan gum 100g water If a milk foam use all milk Mix dry ingredients together to disperse well

  • 1. Burr mix together. Put in Kitchen Aid on high speed until it turns into a foam.

Chantilly Chocolate Ingredients 200g water 2 leaves (g) gelatin 150 g chocolate dark

  • 1. Boil water and remove from heat, add soaked gelatin, then whisk in the

chocolate with a burr mixer in ice water. A chocolate mousse unadulterated by eggs or cream Science: The fatty droplets in an oil in water emulsion such as cream do not combine with one another for they are stabilized by casein micelles and calcium phosphate, into tensioactive structures.

  • ---we add tensioactive molecules by adding a protein such as gelatin. Whisking creates large

air bubbles in the sauce; once the crystallization temperature is reached the volume expands.

  • ---the chocolate crystallizes around the air bubbles.

Alginate chains form a network. Alginate + fruit puree = polymer solution When dipped into calcium chloride (a salt), a cross link is formed. This crosslinking reaction forms a solid shell, or caviar.

DENSITY OF INTERACTIONS DETERMINES STIFFNESS

The number and type of interaction between molecules are important for bulk properties

Ingredients 12 oz bread or hi gluten flour 1 tsp salt 2 Tblsp salad oil (canola, safflower, sunflower) 1 cup warm water

  • 1. Place flour in mixer with hook, add salt and oil and pour in water slowly

while mixing.

  • 2. Let mixer run for 10 minutes until an elastic dough is formed.
  • 3. Rest overnight and stretch over large table.

A protein network from flour. Gluten protein network gives flour products elasticity.
