    Hey there! So, Nutella, right? We all love it, but that palm oil thing...not cool. So I decided to do some science in the kitchen and make my own, palm oil-free version! Guess what? We're using a fancy chocolate making tool called a conch (think super cool food processor for chocolate) to get it insanely smooth. Basically, it's gonna be like the ultimate Nutella experiment! Wanna see if we can create a spread so good it blows the store-bought stuff out of the water? Let's do this!

    i think adding the sugar and milk powder so early was your main mistake, i've made nut butter before from just hazelnuts and it works just fine in a food processor or blender. i think the sugar and milk powder probably kept the mixture too dried out to start forming a paste. i would separate the steps which might make it work already. (if not, use a sugar syrup instead of regular sugar)

  • @Yaawei

    It might work in food processor if you first try to make hazelnut butter and only then add sugar + milk powder. Or instead you can start with the praline mixture - toast the nuts, make caramel, add nuts to caramel, let it cool down and then process it into a paste.

    Those are cacao beans, not nibs. Nibs are beans that have been cut into small pieces.

    So, in the version of the recipe where it calls for cocoa powder rather than cocoa nibs, does it also call for cocoa butter? If not, then it's unsurprising that you got away with not including palm oil.

    If you don't have a wet grinder/chocolate conch/melanger, at 04:32 try adding a bit of oil. This will make some of the powder clump together, so it can't get out of the way if the blade of the food processor hits it. Which in turn destroys the cell walls of the nuts, which in turn releases more oil. Worked for me, anyway.

    Very cool, I'd been looking to re-make a healthier version of Nutella for myself (because the original thing is mainly palm oil and sugar) but my past recipe kind of missed the mark because I didn't add enough sugar and didn't think to add milk powder. I went for a dark chocolate approach though, my recipe was mostly toasted hazelnuts, 100% melted chocolate, sugar, coconut oil, sunflower lecithin and salt. I did achieve the desired consistency with my Vitamix but the mix was heating too much since it was quite thick.

    It should be noted that the "palm oil" you see on the mass market is derived from the kernel. The deep red fruit oil is farmed far more sustainably by local markets and is absolutely delicious!

  • @alexschubert
    @alexschubert 23 дня назад +4

    Professional chef here. Don't toast the nuts in a pan dry. It doesn't really toast them thoroughly. If you can't do it in an oven or air fryer, you can actually use your microwave. Just small bursts until they get kind of oily. Cool video. I love a conch when I see one.

      palm oil doesn't actually change the taste much, it is a preservative and it just keeps the nutella from separeting. they also use it to cut down the cost of making nutella

    Alternatively, you could make it using sustainable production practices of Organic Palm Oil. Organic palm oil farms follow guidelines that prioritize forest conservation, wildlife protection, and fair labor practices.

    • @kangaroochief7511
      @kangaroochief7511 24 дня назад +2

      Agree. The "palm oil = bad" thing is silly. If everyone just switches to soy oil or something then the environmental impact is worse since the palm oil plantations are just replaced with soy oil ones which are less efficient and need even more space.

  • @shawneeluciani1385

    That's not how you toast coco beans 😱 since unroasted beans go through a fermentation process, there can actually be some pretty dangerous bacteria on the outside. Much safer to oven roast until they start to smell like brownies and then you MUST remove that outer shell/husk before crumbling the toasted beans into nibs. You can actuality use these shells to make a delicious tea 😘

    Ever since Nutella changed their recipe, I don't like the flavour anymore... Then a new star entered our stores. Milka! The creamy, melted chocolate consistency is great and it tastes so good. I don't think it's chocolate hazelnut spread, just chocolate spread, but either way it's great.
