Description
A modernist culinary technique using electrospinning to create unique food textures and structures.
Technical
Electrospinning involves forcing a polymer solution, often made from starch, protein, or other food-grade materials, through a spinneret to create fibers. This process can be influenced by various factors including the viscosity of the polymer solution, spinneret design, and electrostatic charging.
