About Texturas
Texturas is the ingredient line that came out of elBulli’s research kitchen, signed by Albert and Ferran Adrià and launched in Barcelona in 2004.
Alginates, gelling agents, emulsifiers and freeze-dried fruit are sold with a stated dose per litre, so a technique developed at elBulli works the same way in any kitchen.
