1. Cooking with CO2
Activity developed in the project:
Promotion of scientific culture and innovation in the
population of the Merindad del Río Ubierna Municipality in
collaboration with CIUDEN
Fundación Ciudad de la Energía

2. Atención
El hielo seco es CO2 en estado sólido,
y se encuentra a una temperatura de
-78ºC, está tan frío que quema!
Se necesitan guantes térmicos y
pinzas para manejarlo y evitar el
contacto directo con la piel.
El hielo seco debe ser manejado por
adultos.

Fruit Vulcano
Ingredients:
150 gr of melon
150 gr of water-melon
150 gr of red apple
150 gr of pear
150 gr of strawberry
150 gr of pineapple
1 kiwi
250 cl. of milk
250 cl. of cream
125 gr of sugar.
Vanilla
Cinnamon
Method:
1. Infusion. Boil the milk, the cream and the sugar with vanilla,
cinnamon and the fruit skins and let them marinate for 12 hours.
Filter and chill it.
2. Fruit. Peel all the fruits except the kiwi and create small balls
with a special spoon. . Peel the kiwis like a cylinder, then extract
the inner part, to let them hollow.
Pela todas excepto el kiwi y forma bolitas con la cuchara especial.
Pela
los kiwis y moldear en forma de cilindro, posteriormente extrae
el centro de los kiwis
para dejarlos huecos.
3. Ending. Place the kiwi cylinders on the plate, putting dry-ice
bits in the hole we´ve created, and place the fruit balls all around
the kiwis.
Once you pour the infusion on the cylinder, you will be creating
an volcanic eruption, including bubbles and smoke.

9. Cooking with CO2
Steam Train
Ingredients:
2 chocolate cakes (different width)
1 filipinos pack (Wheel-like cookies)
1 mikados pack (stick-like cookies)
1 test tube
Smarties
Jellies
Method:
Cut the wide cake, to create a locomotive and a wagon. Cut the
thinner cake to create the locomotive cabin. Place all in a tray,
as in the image. Put the Filipinos in each side of the train,
connecting them through a Mikado. Poke some mikados in the
edge of the wagon, to be able to contain some load.

Penguins in the Mist
Ingredients for 10 penguins:
20 black olives
2 carrots
25 gr of creamy cheese
Island Ingredients:
Light bread
Ham
Sliced cheese
Drain the olives and dry them well. Separate them by size.
Peel the carrots and cut them in thin slices.
With a sharp knife, cut a small triangle of each slice of carrot.
Keep them apart.
Cut the bigger olives straight as shown in the picture, from the
top to the bottom, taking care of leaving the one part uncut.
Fill each olive with creamy cheese, using a spoon or a pastry
bag. Clean the possible excesses that may appear out of the
olive.
Poke the filled olives with a toothpick and stick them in a
carrot base.
To create the heads, do a small cut in the smaller olives, big
enough to fit the carrot triangles we have already cut.
Connect the body and the head through the toothpick.
First, with a rolling pin, smash the light bread slices. They
must be duly smashed in order to prevent breaking when
they are rolled.
Put the ham and cheese over the bread and roll together.
Cut the sandwich in 4 pieces and them in a tray, as they
were islands. Put the penguins on.
Once in the tray, put a petri plate in the center, add water
and some bits of dry-ice.
