Hi all. Curious as to the difference between what I think of as the more traditional dry shake (here) and the reverse dry shake seemingly favoured by Simon in other cocktails involving a foaming agent—I.E. shaking with ice before or after shaking without, what's the thinking?
I've added a link to DRY SHAKE above, which directs you to make a page on the subject. Both standard and reverse dry shakes produce more foam than only shaking with ice. I prefer the reverse dry shake, but this only works with two-piece shakers, and it is essential to strain through a fine strainer to produce an attractive foam.
