I've never done a savory variant of granita. My personal favorite (that I do all the time during spring and summer) is a spiced rhubarb granita (sweet and sour with cinnamon cardamom and vanilla).

[germanaguirre]

Ustedes son geniales. Voy a probar sus diferentes variantes de granita. Una vez probe una de manzanas verdes y especias y era increible! Prueben la de Fernet Branca con Coca cola! Sorry, I do not speak english very well but I defense myself. You're a genius!!

[Esteban.Londono]

Thank you for all your tricks. I tried most of them and are super easy and formidable.

My mouth just watered a little. I think your last few videos have given me the confidence to prepare my own oysters!

[DelTurts]

i love your recent obsession with shucking

[Moonlightrealgirl]

:P I love how you guys break down all the fancy cool restaurant stuff so that we know what they even are, let alone how to make them :D

Great video and great flavours idea, but that's shaved ice, the texture of Granita is completely different.
Keep up the good work!

he's hilarious, best decision to bring him on

Feel like yes it's simple but what you're paying for is the shelf space in the freezer for x hours to make it. It's perhaps more an ingredient cost than a technique cost.

[PiaLorena]

i know it sounds a little bit ignorant, but if you freeze some juice, does it affect on the sourness or in any other flavour? do you have to make it a little bit stronger?

[Brcnosaur]

hello there guys, i'm a new subscriber, also someone who really loves the culinary field.  I graduated from Le cordon bleu in Usa but I just have no idea how i can get more experience like learning this kind of stuff hands on.  How can someone like myself learn more about our field to better my career.

Darlings, this is not granita.
I am Sicilian, I know how a *real* granita is made.

[lorenzoserra]

This is not the true italian granita, is different, every 10-15 minute you have to the it off the frizzer and scrape it.
