7 INSTANT RECIPES TO TRY WITH CREAM CHARGERS THIS WEEKEND
The increasing popularity of whipped cream siphons and nitrous oxide whipped cream chargers was totally unexpected several years ago. Today, it is hard to find a single fancy restaurant in Europe that doesn’t make use of these handy tools in their kitchen for either dessert, soups, espumas, cappuccinos, foams, or any other types of toppings and garnishes. These are also extensively used in bars and pubs to create quirkily impressive alcohol-infused drinks.
The best part is these tools are so easy to use that you can create pro-level dishes and drinks at home and that too, in a matter of minutes. Hard to believe? Here are 7 instant recipes to try with cream chargers this weekend:
