Liquid nitro cooking

Well the highlight of my 4 star staging was cold cooking. The pastry chef, couldn't help but jam some air guitar every time a technique called for playing with freezing liquid. It looked super cool and produced some fun effects. Citrus can be smashed apart to individual.... um i wanna say segments but what are the segments of segments. Now that i have made complete sense and my point perfectly clear i will continue to confuse. Soak a cake in liquid, think tres leches then coat with frozen citrus segmentations for a cool look and unique textural sensation. For those of you that know of Heston his nitro stuff is pretty easy with one big but be careful, habits can cause serious damage. A spoon that has been dipped in really cold stuff should not be tasted unless your aim is to provide comic relief and dont mind not being able to taste for a week.
