- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2014Thin is a chemical designed for modernist style cuisine. Specifically sphereification. I have had a lot of luck using this in both traditional sphereification and the reverse method. My only comment would be to let the mixture hydrate for about an hour before forming spheres or modernist ravioli
