Flavoured Nangs: Myth or Reality? Get the Facts

The Truth About Flavoured Nangs

Let’s clarify one key point: flavoured nangs are not real. There is no strawberry-infused or chocolate-flavoured nitrous oxide canister available.

The term “flavoured nangs” is often used to describe the experience of combining nitrous oxide with flavoured foods or drinks. The real appeal lies in how nitrous oxide enhances the perception of flavours, rather than introducing new ones.

The Science of Sensory Enhancement

Nitrous oxide doesn’t create flavour; it amplifies it. Think of it as a sensory enhancer.

When inhaled, nitrous oxide interacts with neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly the NMDA receptors. This interaction alters perception, often making flavours seem more intense and contributing to an overall euphoric experience.

This heightened perception, paired with the taste of accompanying foods or drinks, gives the illusion of a “flavoured nang.”

Rapid Infusion

Nitrous oxide can rapidly infuse fruits with flavours. By pressurising fruit with nitrous oxide and a flavouring agent, the gas pushes the flavour deep into the fruit's tissues, creating a unique and intense taste experience.

Foams and Espumas

In high-end cooking, nitrous oxide is often used to create light and airy foams or espumas. These add texture and enhanced flavour to dishes, elevating them to restaurant-quality standards.
