It is fatal.<\/p>\n<p>-Use protective gloves and goggles to avoid burning yourself.<\/p>\n<p>-Work with it in a well-ventilated space, as when nitrogen evaporates it displaces oxygen and this can be fatal in a small poorly ventilated room.<\/p>\n<p>-Never seal it or bottle it: liquid nitrogen needs to be constantly evaporating, if you cover it, you produce pressure and it explodes. Therefore, specific containers are used like the ones that you will see in the video.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ohyek4CuoA4?=rel0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><br \/>\nMANGO, GINGER AND CHILLI SORBET<\/p>\n<p>\u25ab\ufe0f30ml lemon juice<\/p>\n<p>\u25ab\ufe0f60ml\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rabastas.fr\/es\/products\/blanche\">Armagnac Rabastas Blanche<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u25ab\ufe0f30ml\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/37Bc045\">Sanz Cocktails Ginger and Chilli Syrup<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u25ab\ufe0f45ml\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/37wRUbf\">Sanz Cocktails Mango Pur\u00e9e<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u25ab\ufe0fProgressively add the nitrogen and do not stop stirring until you obtain the right texture and it ends up like the one you see by Luis Inchaurraga.<\/p>\n<p>\u2764\ufe0f We hope that you like it and if you try it, we would be delighted to see your photos of the process through the\u00a0Facebook and Instagram networks.
