Roasted Ginger Foam

Roasted Ginger Foam: An aerated liquid or smooth purée whose bubbles are held long enough for service. It needs a suitable base and aeration method; its light texture is usually short-lived.

Context

Use clean ginger with tough skin removed where necessary. Older roots can be fibrous, so strain smooth sauces and use small amounts before adjusting its heat.

Example

A menu could use this preparation as an aerated accent added immediately before serving. This is an illustrative use, not a standardized recipe.

How THT uses it

At The Hidden Table, this preparation would be adjusted to the guests, the course and the ingredient available, so it contributes a clear purpose and helps make the experience distinctly yours.
