    We all love Champagne, but we don’t love the hefty price tag. This technique makes “champagne” that tastes great, almost instantly, for cheap. And unlike traditional bottled Champagne, this method will also give you fresh, carbonated, fizzy grapes that you can enjoy in or alongside your glass of bubbly.
    We’re calling this “champagne with a lowercase c” because it’s not made in the Champagne region or the Champagne style, but it’s a fun way to give any wine you like a bubbly boost. Perfect for dinner party toasts during the holiday season and ringing in the new year, you can carbonate white, rosé, and even red wines-just make sure to pick out a bottle, carton, box, or can of wine that you enjoy drinking. (No point in going through this process using a wine that tastes horrible to begin with.) You can even make sparkling non-alcoholic wine (or “cider”) by carbonating grape and apple juices.

      I'd imagine so. SodaStream says to only use water, but I've done tons of other stuff in mine. I was already wondering if I should try wine, but now I'm sure I will. I'll report back when I do.
      BTW if anyone decides to try it out and isn't already familiar with carbonating liquids other than plain water, you'll want to take it slow because almost everything you put in those things want's to foam up into the pressure release valve.

    So what your doing is increasing the partial pressure of CO2 in the siphon by adding the charges.. keeping it cold improves the solubility of gasses in water so you are increasing the rate at which the co2 dissolves in the fruit..
    Definately, if you just want fizzy fruit it will go faster without the wine in there as the co2 will dissolve directly into the water on the cut surface of the fruit but then you will miss out on the wine flavor..

    So I was doing nangs at a party, and somebody told me you could use a whipping siphon to carbonate melted chocolate, so it fizzes on ice cream. Which actually sounds better than nangs, but I dunno if it's true - anybody tried this?

    • @lauriedepaurie
      @lauriedepaurie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Chocolate in siphons does work. You can make a 2 parts cream, 1 part dark chocolate ganache, and charge it with 2 canisters of nitrousoxide, and make a very creamy chocolate mousse.
      You could also try to infuse nitrous into melted chocolate, and make an aerated chocolate bar. Probably takes a warm canister, exact temps and good timing.
      But fizzy chocolate is done with fizzy sugar. Which I suspect is hard to replicate with these canisters. Your best bet is probably incorporating fizzy sugar into chocolate.

    My 2nd favourite part of alcohol is how after 1000s of years, we're still working on finding a better delivery mechanism. "It still tastes like gasoline. What else can we try?" Actually, I'm fascinated by the whole culture in which a tranquilliser is converted from a drug into a food, and social rituals are created to structure the timing, context and frequency of it's use, to the extent that people can't really even see it as a manufactured drug any more. My favourite part is the drug. Does ChefSteps do any cannabis cuisine? "It still tastes like scrapings from under the lawn mower. What else can we try?" Surely there's a tasty magic mushroom dish?
