Watch How elBulli's Famous 'Olive Oil Chip' Is Made

Here's the next video in an ongoing series previewing Ferran Adrià's upcoming opus elBulli 2005-2011, the seven-volume catalog of the restaurant's most iconic recipes and ideas. In this installment, elBulli's publisher Phaidon reveals the steps behind "Recipe 1688," the Olive Oil Chip that uses obulato, a "tasteless edible film," to experiment with the physical forms olive oil can take. Obulato is a familiar tool in Adrià's kitchen; another recent video featured elBulli's "Vanishing Ravioli," which used the film to create a ravioli that disappeared in the mouth. Go, watch faux-"chip" in action:
