      I used about 125 g dark chocolate. It was 85% but if that's too bitter for your taste use a lower percentage like 70%.
      About 25 g of butter. I used salted cause thats all I had. It was fine.
      3 large eggs. Separate them. The egg white whisks better when at room temp.
      About 50 or 60 g of caster sugar (that's what we call it in the uk). It depends on how sweet you like things. It was sweet enough for me.
      Optional things to include (but maybe this chef will judge me for adding stuff 😜) - 200 ml double/whipping cream. Whisk till soft peaks as its harder to incorporate if its too stiff. Add a third to choc mix then slowly incorporate along with whipped egg whites. Personally I prefer it with a bit of cream as it didn't feel so sickly rich after. But if you want it to look as smooth as his then leave out.
      You can also add 2 tbsp of strong coffee when melting chocolate. I think it neutralises the bitterness of bitter chocolate or something. You can't taste it so don't worry.
      1-2 whole orange zest added to the melted chocolate mix for a chocolate orange mousse.

      @alcidesfy Před 6 lety +6

      Hi. Your egg whites should be very firm. Pro tip : one drop of added water from the tip of your finger and a pinch of salt in the egg whites will help them get firm. Actually I never make a meringue with sugar but rather beat the eggs whites alone with salt. And when folding the chocolate into it, do it sloooowly, sloooowly so as not to break the air bubbles. Use a spatula to really scrape that chocolate from the bottom and bring it back to the surface and again, slowly. Also, it might be that your chocolate ganache was hot when you folded it into the eggs, resulting in the eggs cooking when in contact with the chocolate and giving off water. This is why the grease from the butter and the cream is so important, as the emulsified cocoa butter / butter / cream and water from the eggs hold the mousse together.

    • @ddeboy002
      @ddeboy002 Před 5 lety +2

      I've never had to chill mine to get firm. Whip egg whites and heavy cream until they hardly move anymore in the mixing bowl. Kitchen aid mixer is a god send.
