Fruit Caviar recipes?

I am assuming that you are referring to this type of thing:

fruit caviar descriptions, etc.

As with much of the mad science cooking coming out of restaurants like WD-50 and Alinea, creating caviar-like pearls of food can be traced back to El Bulli's Ferran Adriá. Basically, the caviar is made by combining some sort of fruit base with sodium alginate, a gelling agent, and sodium citrate, an anticoagulant. The thickened fruit mixture is then dribbled into a solution of water and calcium chloride, a common preservative.

This is a book of Molecular gastronmy recipes for beginners more or less... every recipe you will need to get started... its great, i keep it on hand just for situations where people ask what do you need for this or that... Good luck!! have fun!!!

Btw you will need a syringe... not a small needle that you use for injections... but the kind you use after you go to the dentist... the one with the cone shape.. otherwise it will be near impossible to make perfect circles... ive tried trust me... a fork a spoon a needle... all wont work!!
