Modernist Cooking - Centrifuges
Monday, August 1, 2011 at 07:34PM
So we here at Man Meets Stove have been admiring the modernist chefs use of centrifuges to make interesting things, like Pea Butter (blended frozen peas spun in a centrifuge for 3 hours to make a puck of pea starch, pea oil, and a little "pea butter". Apparently it is absolutely the sex of peas.
We have started looking for an inexpensive lab centrifuge to try this miracle substance, and ran across this advice:
Rule #1 - Never buy a centrifuge when the eBay address is Yucca Mountain, Nevada or Hanford, Washington nuclear facilities.
Rule #2 - See rule #1

Thanks, JBailey. Duly noted.
