Fig Walnut Chocolate Covered Bonbons
Hello Dear Friends,
It seems like two weeks are tied together and it's been a long and long week, probably because I'm sick this weekend and I'm not going anywhere :)
In the endless busyness of the week, I made a delicious getaway to listen to myself and distract myself a little. While doing this, I prepared Zebra Cake I used
Couverture I have followers who are still confused about chocolate. Couverture chocolates have much higher cocoa butter content than regular chocolates sold in the markets. In addition, due to their density, they easily form layers and become crispy after freezing.
This chocolate, which you can easily find in the shops selling cake materials and in big markets, usually in 1 kilo and 500 g packages, is in a whole mold (then you need to chop it to melt), and because it is easy to melt, it can also be sold as packaged in the size of coin chocolate or chocolate drops.
The easiest way to melt chocolate (if you're using a cuvette) is to melt it in a bowl in the microwave. If you are using a low quality chocolate then Benmari You can also melt it by mixing it from time to time without leaving it unattended. What you need to be careful about is not to burn the chocolate, and to prevent water from getting into it in a double boiler.
Love…
