Centrifugation separates food components by density using centrifugal force.
Origin: Industrial Revolution (20th century) — Global
See full technique reference →The technique drives denser molecules outward, allowing proteins, lipids, and organelles to be isolated as distinct layers. In modernist cuisine, micro‑centrifuges rapidly stratify emulsions to form stable foams and gels, while industrial processes maintain low temperatures and balanced rotors to preserve protein integrity.
