  • Baked pâté en croûte usually develops an air bubble under the crust top as the meat mixture shrinks during baking; this is traditionally dealt with by infusing semi-liquid aspic in the hollow space before chilling.

How to Make The Liquid Infusion in Culinary Knowledge



Garde Manger Knowledge: Liquid Infusion


What is Liquid infusion?

  • Infusion is an extraction of flavor from one or more ingredients and infused (steeped or injected) into another ingredient, usually a liquid such as water, vinegar, syrup, milk, cream, stock, and oil.
  • Flavor ingredients such as Rosemary, Thyme, Star anise, Chili, Fruit or vegetables
  • Infused oils or other liquid are the way to cut food waste and preserve precious flavor
  • E.g. Garlic oil, Rosemary oil, Chili oil, Tarragon vinegar, Lemon vinegar, lemon water, lime water, Tropical fruit water, etc.

Infusion Liquid
Infusion Liquid

  • To minimize risk and further prolong the shelf life of infused oils & vinegar, containers, and utensils used in making infused oils should be clean, dry, and sterilized. 
  • Oils & vinegar should always be kept sealed, away from direct light, and refrigerated. 
  • The process of an oil or fat going rancid is an oxidation process. 
  • Sealed containers keep oxygen contact to a minimum, The dark-colored containers prevent light from affecting the oil and extend the useful life.




Infusion Method

1. Cold Infusion (Blender Method)

  • Best used with high moister ingredients such as herbs, roots, citrus zest, and fresh Chile peppers 
  • These products may add moisture to the oil making it ripe for spoilage, these infusions must be refrigerated immediately after preparation. 


2. Hot Infusion (Direct Heat or Steeping)

  • Best with dry spices, some roots, and woody herbs
  • The heating of the liquid and flavor ingredients makes the finished product more sanitary and less prone to spoilage.




Equipment and Utensil

  • Natural waxed paper
  • Glass jar with a tight-fitting lid
  • Spoon
  • Stainless steel saucepan 
  • Cheesecloth 
  • Bowl 
  • Labels and permanent marker
  • Dark-colored glass bottles with dropper tops or cap tops for storing the finished product
  • Mortar and pestle 
  • Wire strainer 
  • Funnel
