OBJECTIVES
BIG IDEA
Learn how liquid nitrogen cools the ice cream at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine-grained (nano) ice cream.
LEARNING GOALS
Liquid Nitrogen cools the cream at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine-grained crystals that are nanosized.
Nano is very, very small.
NANO CONTENT MAP
