Raspberry and Beetroot Air

The raspberry and beetroot air is a surprising creation of pastry chef Javier Guillén, recognized for his innovation and his regular collaboration with Sosa Ingredients. The recipe is a very intense air in color due to the nature of raspberries and beetroot.

The key to this air is the use of Powdered soy lecithin, a natural texturizer that allows air to be incorporated into the mixture and create an ultralight, almost ethereal foam. To achieve the perfect texture, it is essential to use a candissoire: this wide and shallow container makes it easier for the raspberry and beetroot mixture, once prepared, to be exposed to the action of the hand blender, allowing the air to form uniformly and stably.

It is important to note that this air is not suitable for freezing; it must be prepared and served immediately to enjoy all its lightness and freshness. The result is a spectacular topping, ideal for giving a modern and vibrant touch to desserts, cakes or haute cuisine dishes.
