The Fruits of Passion
The Fruits of Passion The best of fruit naturally It was in the heart of the Limousin, in a luscious green setting, that André Ponthier founded the company that has borne his name for over 60 years. Born in the family orchards, the love of fruit has never faded. From father to son, it has taken on new dimensions, and new products have seen the light of day, more sophisticated and ever more innovative, but always in line with the quality and tradition that have always been the watchword of the Maison Ponthier. The rigorous selection of fruits from accredited producers, traditional recipes based on a recognized know-how, the personal commitment of Yves Ponthier and his team to tasting and testing, awaken the senses and make all the difference. Occupying, since 2001, 10.000 square metres of new laboratories, the very latest in «high tech», the Maison Ponthier is perpetuating a gastronomic heritage based on tradition, whilst respecting the environment. Today, the Ponthier Patisserie range has the favours of all the chefs around the world who continue to seek authenticity and defend the flavour of true regional produce.

Warm 100g puree to dissolve the softened gelatine. Add the rest of the puree. Mix, sieve and place in the siphon. Add 2 gas cartridges. Keep at ambient temperature, not letting it fall below 20° so as to be able to extract the mixture, as the gelatine fixes the preparation up to 19°. Warm soufflé with methylcellulose A Methylcellulose A is a by-product of WOOD and must be used in low concentrations to avoid a taste of paper. It is a hot foaming agent and gelifying agent from 65°C. Prepare the methylcellulose A: mix the powder very vigorously to mix in air. Leave it to rest. Prepare a solution with 375 g water and 6.5 g methylcellulose A. Mix to homogenize. Add 125 g raspberry puree. Mix well to obtain a dense paste. Place in the siphon with two gas cartridges. Store at ambient temperature. Mould in ramekins, circles or on plates, place in the oven at 180° and serve immediately. 20 Liquid nitrogen It is necessary to transfer the nitrogen into a small stainless steel recipient in order to facilitate its handling whilst limiting evaporation and controlling the risk of burns and overpressure (nitrogen is an inert gas at -196°C) In sherbets IIt allows you to make sherbets without adding sugar or water. Pour the nitrogen into a double-sided recipient. Be careful to pour the nitrogen over the fruit puree whilst stirring constantly: the puree will be transformed into sherbet. Quick coating, instant setting Fruits dipped in a fondant or a coating then immersed in nitrogen will harden immediately. Make a fruit gel (strawberries, raspberries mango,....) Fruit puree 500g, Icing sugar 50g, Carrageenans 10g Mix all the ingredients together cold, then raise the temperature, bring to the boil and boil for 2 minutes. Keep hot to dip in your cubes of fruit mousses, marshmallow… Put the items to be coated on a stick, dip in the fruit gel, then dip into the nitrogen. Quick meringues For immediate crispiness. Dip a skimmer in the nitrogen (this will allow you to release your meringues) Lift then place on the skimmer the desired quantity of mousse (made in advance in a mixer or with a siphon) and dip into the nitrogen for a few minutes. Take out again, wait a few moments for the temperature to rise before eating to avoid the risk of burns. Dragon effect Raspberry meringue: 300g egg whites, 200g caster sugar, 100g raspberry coulis Whisk the egg whites until stiff, mix in the sugar then complete with the coulis. Spread on a tray, then dry in a drying chamber. Place small meringues in the nitrogen and leave immersed for a few minutes before taking them out again. Place in the mouth, close your mouth and blow hard! You will have smoke coming out of your nostrils… The effect is guaranteed! 21 Spherification using alginates Use An extract of brown seaweeds, sodium alginates are vegetable gelling agents. Normal spherification A fruit coulis to which approximately 1% of alginate has been added plunged in different sized droplets into a 1% calcium solution will enable you to make beads. The contact of the alginate with the calcium instantly forms a film of jelly that imprisons the liquid. This phenomenon applies from the outside in and therefore the longer you leave the bead in the bath of calcium the less liquid the core will be. For immediate consumption. Inverse spherification A preparation naturally rich in calcium will allow you to make beads without any additives. A yoghurt or whipped cream mixed with fruit puree will enable you to make beads. In a bath of alginate of about 1%, drop in different sized droplets of fruit coulis and yoghurt preparation. The contact of the calcium with the alginate instantly forms a film of jelly that imprisons the liquid. The advantage of this technique is that it lasts longer and consumption can be deferred by a few hours. 22 Gelification Carrageenan Of vegetable origin. For applications with the advantage of holding up to 70°. Proportions of 1 to 3% depending on the consistency required : quite a supple, elastic jelly is obtained. Method Mix into the preparation cold, then bring to the boil and boil for 2 minutes to dissolve it.
