  • Join pastry chef Claire Saffitz in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make gourmet Cadbury Creme Eggs. These are the only eggs that rabbits are known to lay (at least that's what Cadbury commercials tell us). However, Claire will try to make these Easter classics without the aid of a bunny.

    As soon as I saw the title, I could already hear Claire’s voice saying:
    *“Tempered chocolate is chocolate that is heated, cooled and then heated again to specific temperatures so that the chocolate has a firm snap.”*

      But it's not though. Tempered chocolate is SOOOOOOOO easy. You melt chocolate to any temp. ANY temp. Then you cool it to 97F, chuck in your seed chocolate or cocoa butter, stir vigorously for a few minutes... pull out whatever was not melted... and you're done. Plus it's not done to get a "snap". It's done so that it holds its shape at room temperature. If you don't temper chocolate, then it will go soft (even runny) at room temperature. But it's sooooo easy to do and I'm not even trained and I can do it in a snap!

    Alright, I’ve held off this long, but watching Claire agonize over tempering chocolate the old fashioned way is killing me. So.
    Here I am passing on the information that Kitchenaid makes a tempering bowl which can attach to their mixers or be used on its own. They are easy to use, very effective, don’t require constant attention, and my mother, a chocolatier, has two she uses for small batch chocolate.
    Tempering chocolate using a method involving water is notoriously difficult, not just because it is extremely finicky and requires patience and attention, but because moisture can and will cause chocolate to seize.
    So please, for the love of any god, invest in the tempering bowl. It is 100% worth it.
    This has been a tempering PSA.

    • @ThatOneGeekyFamilytoo
      @ThatOneGeekyFamilytoo 4 года назад +17

      Not even that! Tempering is SUPER easy. All you do is melt your chocolate, cool down to 97F. Chuck in your seed chocolate or cocoa butter... stir for a few minutes... Pull out whatever part of the seed isn't melted and you're all done. If I was using the water method.. the easiest thing to do would be to keep the chocolate in temper. As long as it is all melted and stays under 97F... it stays in temper and you don't even have to worry about it.

I just nuke chips or chunks until barely melted, remove then stir until smooth. I then add seed chocoalte and stir until smooth again. No measuring, no temperature readings, easy.

    Ah, this is almost like my platonic ideal of a Gourmet Makes episode - rather than trying to replicate the original not-great-thing, taking it as a jumping-off point and instead creating something that actually seems like it would taste amazing because the recipe's better, embracing it as a hand-crafted item rather than mass-produced, and is also totally aesthetically pleasing. Plus, bonus craft and construction! So great. (the almost is only because it's only marginally got that experimental approach when Claire tries to adjust and calibrate with different recipes, but hey, sometimes the idea is just right the first time, what's not to love?)

      The word, "Gourmet," in "Gourmet Makes" implies that the outcome of her experiments will be high-quality and restaurant worthy. That should be the focus.

    I am so proud of Claire for finally clicking on what Gourmet Makes should really be and stepping it up to make a truly gourmet version of the Creme Egg, which doesn’t mean making it an exact replica down to millimeters measurements with nicer ingredients, it means doing a gourmet version of the snack that tastes better, looks fancier and isn’t trying to mirror the original.
    Putting a chef de pâtisserie’s spin on this candy is glorious and beautiful. I thoroughly appreciate this episode despite my dislike for the Creme Egg bc of the filling, the change in the classic egg and finally, for not being true Cadbury’s Dairy Milk. It’s Hershey’s crap.

      America is so big that when they started selling chocolate the milk in the recipe would expire, so they added butyric acid to the recipe to make it last longer, americans then got used to chocolate with that taste (the issue is that butyric acid is also present in stomach acid, so to people outside the USA the chocolate basically tastes like vomit) so chocolate in the UK tastes sweeter and creamyer because it uses fresh milk in its recipe

    Just wanted to appreciate how the camera crew probably saw the sunset at 5:20 and said, that needs to be behind claire, and changed their angle. The shot was awesome, the colour of the sunset on the windows outside combined with the warm hanging lights indoors and her apron is beautiful, and the lighting is just perfect :D
