INGREDIENTS
300 grams chocolate tablets with 70 % cocoa
40 grams butter (unsalted)
250 ml good quality pure liquid cream (heavy cream)
50 grams or more cocoa powder to coat the truffles.
you can add at the end ( before the cooling) a dash of liquor if you like (grand marnier, cognac, whisky or rhum) or some vanilla extract to sweetened the chocolate.
Cooling time : in a tray covered with cling film ( bottom and top) then in the freezer for one or 2 hours.
for the decoration you can also roll the truffles in desiccated or coconut powder and chocolate shaving dark or white
Important Cooking notes:
- slight adjustment from the video to make things go smooth: Bring your cream to the boil and as soon as it starts to boils, TURN THE HEAT OFF then add the chocolate in bit by bit. you can also just put the chocolate in a glass bowl and pour the hot cream over the chocolate instead (that method is even better if you never work with chocolate)
!! If your chocolate splits, just add a few tablespoon of cold water to it and whisk until it gets back on track !!
- Don't forget to add a cling film on top of the chocolate ganache before putting it in the freezer to solidify.
The time it takes for the ganache to solidify in the freezer may vary depending on what freezer you use.

    I wonder what would happen if you immerse your tray or container of chocolate in a bath of ice water while you are working. You’d have to be very careful not to get any water in your chocolate, but it might make working with the chocolate ganache a bit easier.

    No. I just checked a bunch of recipes and none of them have butter in them, just chocolate and cream and maybe some flavorings like Grand Marnier. The only time I add butter to ganache is when I want to pour it over a cake or on top of a pie or tart. I think that's why Stefan's ended up being too soft.

    Some of the butter has separated and is floating on top of the ganash. It could be because it was put in the freezer and it cooled down too fast. perhaps the fridge would be safer.

  • @christinekaye6393
    @christinekaye63932 жыл бұрын

    Stefan, I think the butter is what made your ganache too soft. You can make ganache with butter, but usually for pouring it onto a cake or tart.

    I know a similar recipe from Heston Blumenthal. I wonder if adding a little bit of gelatine could help to make it just a slightly bit firmer.

    I think gelatin would ruin the texture. I've made truffles and never had a problem with the ganache being too soft. He should definitely try another recipe or stir up what he has to re-incorporate the separated butter, then chill it again in the fridge.

    Almost every other recipe see entails pouring the cream over the chocolate and letting it sit for a few minutes. About 50% of the time that leads to my ganache separating. Is this method better for causing it to not separate?

  • @JTEchicago

    This method with butter and putting it directly into the pot over heat will probably be more difficult. I use a ratio of 100/60 chocolate/heavy cream, then heat the cream just to the point where it bubbles on the side, then pour over and give a little shake. Cover with plastic wrap and sit for ~2 mins. Then stir but supper slow, you don't want to whip it, then after a couple mins it should start to come together then stop. Another option is 50/50 ratio, use a double burner to melt the chocolate and heat the cream, heat both to 90F, then combine. Separation usually occurs when the two are different temperatures and want to push away. If separation happens, put in a sip of rum or whisky, the alcohol will help as a binding agent, don't let any water touch it either.

    First off, must apologise up front--I'm not a chocolate devotee. But given that, I will eat chocolate and I do love dipped, flavoured, chocolate truffles. So I wonder--why is there no sweetening agent in this recipe? I can only imagine my bitter metre hitting the red zone.
