    Your hazelnut espuma recipe is confusing—the written recipes mentions only one nitrous cartridge but in your video you use 2 cartridges—-which is it?

    Thank you guys for sharing such a great recipe!
    I am a little bit confused why the lemon juice is added into the hazelnut milk . Doesn’t the fact that the milk curdles into small lumps when it incorporate with the lemon juice make the foam less creamy?

      The lemon juice will not curdle the hazelnut milk in this recipe, as it would with a dairy milk.
