[Sca-cooks] Foams

[Johnna Holloway]

Names to look for would be
Ferran Adria of El Bulli which is in Spain (Bourdain did a program on  
him.)

Wikipedia sums it up as
"Most of the recipes included are complex and require many out-of-the  
ordinary kitchen appliances, such as a Pacojet, freeze-dryer, liquid  
nitrogen tank, candyfloss machine and Perspex molds."

In the US
  Grant Achatz of Chicago's Alinea,

Wylie Dufresne who is at NYC's WD-50,
and Jose Andres of Minibar in DC's Cafe Atlantico.

It shows up every once in awhile on Top Chef and on programs on the  
Food Network.
