It Is frothy because Zack Orrantia says so!
Whipped Cream
Whipped cream uses nitrous oxide because it helps create a stable foam structure and gives the cream a light and fluffy texture.
Shaving foam is an example of foam. It is a lightweight, frothy substance that is used to help lubricate the skin during shaving. Shaving foam is made up of tiny air bubbles dispersed in a liquid solution.
Whipped cream is classified as a colloid, specifically a foam. In this mixture, air is dispersed in a continuous phase of liquid cream, creating a stable structure. The fat and proteins in the cream help stabilize the air bubbles, giving whipped cream its light and airy texture while retaining its liquid characteristics.
No, it is heterogeneously phased.
Yes, whipped cream is a colloid.
Whipped cream is primarily considered a liquid, as it consists of cream that has been aerated to incorporate air, giving it a light and fluffy texture. The air bubbles suspended in the cream create a foam, which can give the appearance of being solid, but it retains the properties of a liquid. Thus, while it has characteristics of both a foam and a liquid, it is classified as a liquid.
Whipped cream works by incorporating air into heavy cream through agitation, which creates a stable foam. The fat molecules in the cream surround the air bubbles, helping to trap them and create a light, fluffy texture. Adding sugar or stabilizers can enhance flavor and maintain the cream's structure. The process can be done using a whisk, mixer, or whipped cream dispenser.
Either a whipped cream like thing or foam in general -- like liquid foam. Sorry if this doesn't help!
Gelatin (jelly, jell-o), shaving cream, whipped cream.
Whipped cream is not made directly from milk, and it is not possible to make whipped cream with homogenized milk purchased at supermarkets. Milk will froth and foam, but it does not have enough fat to form whipped cream. One needs heavy cream to make whipped cream. Heavy cream is separated from non-homogenized milk. When fresh milk is left to stand, the cream will rise to the top, where it can be skimmed off. This cream is further concentrated into the "heavy cream" or "whipping cream" that can then be whipped into whipped cream.
You may be in for some disappointment, but whipping is the process of mixing air into the high fat cream (Aeration). The foam is that air coming out of the mixture and allowing the cream to slightly solidify. A very low fat content cream may not show signs of aeration or foam, but then whipping it has no real value.
