Im so excited that I learned how to temper chocolate in the microwave! I'm never going to do it any other way again! If you're skimming this video, just remember that you have to use REAL chocolate with cocoa butter in it for this to work and to never let your chocolate get above 90ºF :-D
Do I order the spatula thermometer online? Amazon?
@@samename6479I don't mean to jump in here but I googled spatula with thermometer and got a listing for one here in Canada. They also suggested searching digital spatula (which makes sense... I froze at what to call it) but they were reasonable... about $30 or so and such a brilliant idea
@@chickapey thanks
@@samename6479 This one works great for me www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073DK268Y
Do you have a good suggestion for silicone or plastic bowls?
my jaw dropped when I saw the spatula with the built in thermometer
Me, too!
Me too!
I did too!! Didn't know it existed! I'll have to find one. 😃 They're on Amazon for about $19 USD.
I found one of those (not that particular model) at Sur la Table and put it on my Christmas list a few years ago. My sister gave me one. I just checked the company website and they don't seem to have it anymore.
I have two of them..they are great. You can remove the thermometer too
Did I wake up today? -yes
Did I drive to work? -yes
🤔
Did I clock in on time? -yes
I deserve a chocolate star too.
I LOVE THIS
Ahaha!
ABSOLUTELY Wish I could Give you something Chocolate and Yummy Right Now!!!!!!!! HUGS BEAUTIFUL
I agree
Thanks for the video. For those of you that live in 2020 or anywhere else on Earth. 115 F is 46 C, 95 F is 35 C and 79 F is 26 C.
I live in Mars !so now😱
I live in sun .
what is a chocolate 😱😱😱😱😱
Oh cool so in summer here in Australia I can do it all outside without electricity, awesome
@@jillianwebb-sear8803 I use to live in Jamaica. I had to use ice on the counter if I wanted to do anything with chocolate.
This was the best explanation I have found on how to do this! You are a born teacher! Thank you! Your daughter is adorable :)
Ingrid Hendel thank you so much! 💗
Thank you for saying what I was about too ..Your assistant/taste tester is a Doll.
Claire of Bon Appétit needs to watch this.
CFTBATK is an angel
Why
I was thinking that the second I read the title 😅
Agreed
DEADDDD came here after watching
This worked perfectly! I made 11 flavors of dark chocolate truffles as Christmas gifts. Every year, the dipped couverture chocolate isn’t right. This year, it’s simply perfect. Oh, and the 11 flavors are all different liqueurs. Amaretto, Frangelico (hazelnut), Grand Marnier (orange), etc.
I am interested in making some for Christmas. It didn't quite go as I hoped last time but am interested in getting better. I was thinking Kahlua and tequila rose. Did you mix your flavors with ganache ?
man called me broke 4 different times in one comment
The ending part with your daughter was so wholesome.
I've watched so many temper chocolate videos here on CZcams but yours is the best and more detailed and the science behind it.
omg thank you so much for this! i never knew the science behind tempering chocolate. i always wondered why my chocolate covered strawberries always looked dull and it always looked easy to do but i always failed😣 thank youuu❤
It's a bit confusing but I tried to explain whats happening without putting you to sleep haha
@@SugarGeekShow hahha oh no! you coudnt have explained it any better! youre the best! thank you again and cheers from canada ❤
@@halohalochan2587 You hated my channel because of my name? why?
@@SugarGeekShow Weird. Your name is what drew me in the first place.😁 I wasn't disappointed. Subscribed. Your daughter is the cutest.
@@halohalochan2587 No, only real chocolate needs to be tempered.
Thank you so much for explaining so clearly the science behind tempering! Brilliant! I finally understood! I attended a chocolaterie course a year ago and they were never able to make me understand what makes tempering a success or a fail. I failed so many times with the first two methods, I gave up working with tempered chocolate. You opened a whole new world for me! Method #3 worked! Quickly, easily and most importantly, it worked!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Your daughter melted my heart ㅠ ㅠ I need to temper it back!
That's a great pun 😂👍
I don’t get why the pie 3.14... symbol is used lol.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 to represent crying
@@bingsoob
Who does that? That is the weirdest way I’ve ever seen to represent crying. Why not use emojis or text to do so? I don’t think anyone but you would know the pie symbol being used in this fashion haha.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 idk don't shoot the messenger
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I love the thorough explanation as well as the examples of tempered chocolate vs. Non tempered chocolate. I also liked that you showed the difference between real chocolate and compound chocolate as well as gave examples of what each could be used for. Thank you again. Your video is much appreciated!
What an absolutely priceless video! Tempering chocolate is a very exacting process and can intimidate the best of Bakers. You explain the tempering process better than I've seen in other videos. Thank you so much for sharing your "Wisdom"! I want to make chocolate ball desserts which requires tempering. I have failed miserably with these with in the past. I will definitely refer back to this vid when making them again. You've inspired me!
You're a genius! I finally understand tempering chocolate!!!
You explained these methods so well. I’ve always been scared to try to temper chocolate. Will definitely try it this weekend! Thank you!!!
Freaking amazing explanation!!! I have no trouble tempering my chocolate but I have never considered the magic behind it.
So glad you liked it!! Thanks
This was super helpful. I’ve never known how to temper chocolate and just thought it was something you couldn’t do at home without a bunch of fancy equipment! Thank you so much for your video! I’m going to save it so I’ll have it next time I melt chocolate 🍫
You have NO IDEA how many questions this answered! Just to be sure, I can temper ANY dark chocolate as long as it has cocoa butter in it to use as mold shells right? Making heart shaped bonbons in a polycarbonate mold is going to be a valentine's present for my fiance!
Yes! As long as the chocolate has cocoa butter in it, you can temper it! Check out my heart hot chocolate bombs and breakable chocolate heart tutorials for even more info too. 😁 sugargeekshow.com/recipe/breakable-chocolate-heart-tutorial/
@@SugarGeekShow THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have searched youtube for this info like crazy and you popped up as a suggestion. I'm a new faithful follower! lol
@@SugarGeekShow 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I really appreciate this video! My little boys wanted to know why chocolate stays hard sometimes and other times it doesn't, and this video was perfect! They loved seeing your little girl at the end too and of course, the use of legos 😄
THANK YOU!!!! I finally tempered chocolate after MANY fails. This was so awesome and easy to follow. Many thanks! 🙏🏾
Fantastic help! I've always been frustrated by the seeding method. The microwave method! That's the bomb! Thank you!
My search on CZcams was to figure out why my chocolate was so dull!!! I had looked at several videos. You really explained it well! Thank you so much!!!❤
I have wasted so much chocolate melting it not knowing about tempering. Thank you so so much for this advice! ❤️
Thank you for explaining these methods so clearly, every Christmas I try to temper chocolate for my thin mint cookies and I always fail and give up. Im definitely buying myself one of those spatulas.
This is the most comprehensive and easy-to-understand choc. tempering video I've seen! Thanks for posting. Also, you're daughter's a real sweetie!
jinkcandoit Thanks so much! Glad you liked it 😄
I use compound chocolate all the time with silicone molds, it comes out pretty good. I have infused coco butter into compound chocolate as well. It provides a nice sheen. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome thanks for sharing the microwave method I’ve been using the double boiler method. I did find my spatula with thermometer at my Walmart last year. Your daughter is so adorable.
I am definitely going to try the microwave method! Thank you so much.
It worked!! I'm so happy! This microwave method was the easiest I 've ever tried, thank you!! ❤
Thanks so much Liz, I tried tempering chocolate for the first time and was successful thanks to your great explanation.
Thank you!!! I did my first ever chocolates today, I was able to temper both milk chocolate AND white chocolate successfully first time!! Thanks for this awesome video 😍
I'm so glad I clicked on this video. The idea of tempering chocolate was so intimidating but you made it seem simple. Thank you!
Thank you for this vid! I tried a few other videos for tempering with seeding, all with the same temps for melting and cooling, but they didn't work. Then I tried your video with the seeding method and made sure to put the seeding chocolate in as soon as it cooled up 95 and it worked! I've tried with white chocolate and dark chocolate and it worked for both!
I am so glad I found your channel. .thank you so much❤️ you explained it so well. Rise and shine 🌻
I loved the science in this video! I might well use it in my science class. I already use the recipe for ice cream hard shell to teach emulsion and this is right up the same alley.
I’ve been watching video after video, with no results. You seemed happy so I clicked. You went from the science to background to how to. Great video! I learned something and I feel very confident in attempting this now- thank you!!
Love your spatula with the thermometer in it! 👍. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos! Subbed! ❤️
Thank you for explaining everything and making sure I know if I’m doing my tempering right
You're an amazing teacher! I just tempered chocolate for the first time and it felt so easy!
