Chocolate opaline crisp
Servings 40 crisps
Ingredients
- 100 g glucose syrup
- 200 g fondant
- 2 g salt
- 150 g dark chocolate 62%
Instructions
- Begin by mixing the glucose syrup with the fondant and the salt. Now heat this up till the temperature is 160 °C. Be sure to keep on mixing it in between, otherwise the fondant will burn. It takes a while, but trust me it will be totally worth it.
- Once it has the right temperature turn off the heat and let it cool down till it’s 130 °C.
- Then add the dark chocolate and mix it till it’s fully incorporated. After that place it on a silicon sheet, place another sheet on top and flatten it. Now let it cool down completely.
- Then break it in smaller pieces and transfer it into a blender. Blend it into a fine powder.
- Now place a stencil on a silicon sheet and dust the chocolate powder on top. Make sure it’s thick enough.
- Then remove the stencil, the powder on top of the stencil you can reuse, so don’t throw it away.
- Now melt the powder in the oven at 150 °C for around 3 to 4 minutes.
- Then let it cool down before gently removing it from the sheet and placing it on a press mold. Reheat it in the oven for a minute and shape it with the top mold.
- Then gently remove it from the press and it’s ready to be served!
