Looking Closer

I came across two sets of videos demonstrations.  Both sets feature the work of the El Bulli team.

The first set of videos highlights their series of ingredients, with several new additions to the line up.  They can be viewed at the Texturas website.   The second set of videos shows techniques for 2008.  The ideas and concepts in these videos are amazing.  Once again I am floored by the creative process of others.  These videos are in Spanish, though the techniques are well visualized and the subtitles list the ingredients used.  I was able to view the techniques of 2008 at GastroVideo.

There are tons of techniques and ideas, both scattered and organized, in these videos.  Take more than a moment and watch them.  You will be amazed at where your brain starts going next.

As a bit of a teaser, I was quite pleased to see team El Bulli working with rice puree, a recent addition to our kitchen, though used in some spectacular ways.
