Adrià serves his foam over mandarin-orange or bitter-cocoa granita and dusts a bit of fragrant curry on the plate.

-
Special equipment:
an electric juice extractor; an immersion blender -
Accompaniment:
1 1/2 pints store-bought chocolate sorbet, or clementine sorbet

Juice carrots with extractor and transfer enough juice to a very tall container (at least 12 inches deep; such as a large pitcher or vase) to half-fill it. Holding immersion blender just below surface of carrot juice in tall container, blend to create foam. Spoon foam with a fine-mesh skimmer or slotted spoon onto scoops of sorbet. Blend remaining juice to obtain more foam if needed.
