Compressed fruits are a great way to bring out vibrant colors and increase the density in texture. I make a simple syrup(1-1 ratio sugar to water) then add fresh basil white it's still hot and let it boil for a few minutes then let it steep till cool and strain into an ice bath. Add the basil infused simple syrup to the vacuum bag with the fruit and compress on the highest pressure.
