<strong>textur</strong>e from nature<br />
basis for natural products
mother nature’s<br />
larder<br />
Creamy <strong>textur</strong>es, fine sauce foams and stable emulsions thanks to <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong><br />
by herba cuisine. <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> is a versatile, paste-like and neutral <strong>textur</strong>izer,<br />
purely made from the albedo (the white inner layer) of citrus fruits and water.<br />
With <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> you can foam hot, warm, cold and ice-cold sauces – from<br />
fruity to savory – that stay stable. You prepare stable emulsions very easy with<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong>. You bind your hot and cold sauces and soups naturally. even in<br />
fat-reduced dishes you receive the desired consistency in no time.<br />
The setting qualities of lemon<br />
Nice to know<br />
the setting qualities of lemons make<br />
way for a new lightness in modern cuisine.<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong>, the <strong>textur</strong>e-giving<br />
basic product which is based exclusively<br />
on the dietary fibres of lemon<br />
(citrus fibres) is so convincing that you<br />
can dispense with conventional thickening/<strong>textur</strong>e<br />
agents.<br />
So creativity knows no limits.<br />
Citrus fibres<br />
the citrus fibres are neutral in taste<br />
and are obtained from the albedo and<br />
the juice sacs of fruit that is dejuiced,<br />
deoiled and gently dried as soon as it<br />
is harvested.<br />
Albedo<br />
the mesocarp, which due to its white<br />
colour is also known as albedo<br />
(lat: albus = white), is the inner layer of<br />
the lemon peel.<br />
Juice sacs<br />
Juice sacs are small sacks filled with<br />
juice which grow from the outside to<br />
the fruit centre and completely fill the<br />
individual fruit segments.<br />

Basis for<br />
foams<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> is the ideal basis for frothed foods and drinks. Whether you wish<br />
to prepare smoothies, sorbets, ice cream, mousses or fruit or vegetable froths –<br />
you always get a stable, creamy <strong>textur</strong>e.<br />
foods can thus be formed and presented individually. You will love the way the<br />
food, especially frozen products, keeps its shape and is very slow to melt.<br />

Creating <strong>textur</strong>e<br />
natural colours on your plate
Basis for<br />
soups<br />
a satisfying soup, crème or culinary foam depends on its authenticity, its own natural<br />
taste and a natural colour. this is hard to achieve if masking binding agents,<br />
such as starch, guar or other thickening agents are used.<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> solves <strong>textur</strong>e and thickening problems really easily: you determine<br />
the consistency by simply adding more or less <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong>.<br />

CulinarY HigHligHtS<br />
with innovative basic products
Basis for<br />
sauces<br />
Sauces that are bound with <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> retain their own character. You can forgo<br />
the use of cream and butter as taste enhancers as the taste release triggered by<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> is not hindered by flour or starches. the absence of flour and<br />
starches also means that skin does not form when the sauce is cooled or reheated.<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> can be used in a ratio of up to 1:3.<br />
Fast Sauce Hollandaise<br />
(serves 8)<br />
250 g melted butter (lukewarm)<br />

10 g asparagus stock<br />
salt<br />
cayenne pepper<br />

blender.<br />
2. Season with salt and cayenne<br />
pepper.<br />
3. Pass sauce through a fine sieve,<br />
fill into a 0,5l iSi thermo Whip<br />
PluS or a 0,5l iSi gourmet Whip<br />
PluS, screw on one iSi cream<br />
capsule and shake well. in an iSi<br />
thermo Whip PluS the sauce<br />
will stay warm for up to 3 hours<br />
without any additional heating, put<br />
the iSi gourmet Whip PluS into<br />
a warm water bath (approx. 60°C).<br />

achieve the desired consistency.<br />

Basis for<br />
desserts<br />

stand for light, easy-to-digest indulgence. <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> supports the natural,<br />
fresh taste of fruits or fine aromas (such as cocoa, etc.) – only using the natural,<br />
consistency-giving properties of citrus fruits.<br />

from ConCePtion to realitY<br />
in the beginning there was the lemon
a dream<br />
of a new <strong>textur</strong>e<br />
<strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> has totally redefined <strong>textur</strong>e and now offers gourmet cuisine a special<br />
form of lightness, a better taste and is inspiration for fresh ideas with unimagined<br />
potential. <strong>BASIC</strong> <strong>textur</strong> has tracked down the secrets of nature combining<br />
them with state-of-the-art production techniques. You too can benefit from the outstanding<br />
thickening properties of citrus fibre.<br />
Scientific competence<br />
the aspiration to bring authentic basic<br />
products to the market is not new. if<br />
these are primarily destined for gourmet<br />
cuisine you need experienced advisers<br />
and constructive criticism. that<br />
is why our research department has<br />
worked together with top chefs for<br />
many years. We listen, develop new<br />
process techniques and keep on refining<br />
the products until all parties are<br />
totally satisfied.<br />
the result melts in your mouth: a new<br />
dimension in <strong>textur</strong>e and taste.<br />
right from the start, we documented<br />
all development processes, standardised<br />
the techniques and integrated them<br />
into a certified workflow.<br />
for product safety is our top priority.<br />
