Vinaigrette sheets

[Plaisir]

Hi all,

I did a search for Vinaigrette sheets in the forums but nothing came up.

I reproduced the recipe in the "hydro-colloid recipe collection v2.3" but

it didn't work at all.

I didn't heat the agar more than 104°F and measured EVERYTHING on a digital scale.

Any ideas why this didn't gel into sheets?

Thank you tip: break whole raw eggs on a flat surface so

the shell cracks in big sections

instead of small shards from the edge of a bowl, that may end up in your food.

Thanks for your time, Joe

Here's the pdf for that Khymos hydrocolloid collection.

Thanks so much for the prompt reply.

I really enjoy reading your posts!

I haven't read this specific recipe, but usually, agar doesn't hydrate until you boil it for a few minutes...

I couldn't find Vinaigrette Sheets in

the http://khymos.org/hydrocolloid-recipe-collection-v1.pdf you posted.

Do you think I can use regular gelatin sheets to make sheets with my favorite

vinaigrettes?

Hey KennethT,

I guess I need to learn how to read! The recipe does say to boil. I have now idea where I got 104F.

Thanks a bunch.
