What You Need to Know
Reconstruction involves gelification, spherification, or foamification using sodium alginate, calcium chloride, and other ingredients, with temperature and time control to create gel-like or foam-like textures. The process requires precise control of temperature, ranging from 0°C to 20°C, and time, ranging from 30 minutes to several hours. Failure modes include over- or under-gelification, incorrect pH levels, and contamination.
