iSi tip
To make a green asparagus espuma, take 450 g of green asparagus and 50 g of blanched and pureed spinach. Can also be made as an asparagus stock by using 400 ml of asparagus stock instead of asparagus.
In the iSi Thermo Whip and iSi Thermo XPress Whip: Let the mixture cool in the refrigerator! Double the ingredients for a 1 l iSi Whipper. Screw on 2 iSi Cream Chargers, one after the other. Shake vigorously after attaching each Charger. Halve the ingredients if using a 0.25 l iSi Whipper.
