|
A rich and creamy chocolate custard.
|
|
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
- **Custard Base**
|
|
- 2 cups heavy cream
|
|
- ½ cup whole milk
|
|
- 6 oz high-quality chocolate (60% cacao), finely chopped
|
|
- 5 large egg yolks
|
|
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
|
|
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
|
|
- pinch salt
|
|
- **Optional Toppings**
|
|
- whipped cream
|
|
- chocolate wafer crumbs (for "dirt")
|
|
- shaved chocolate
|
|
- caramelized parsnips with Sherry Vinegar for a unique twist
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
1. Heat cream and milk in a saucepan until simmering. Pour over the chopped chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes before whisking smooth.
|
|
2. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Slowly stream the hot chocolate-milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly to avoid curdling.
|
|
3. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Pour into 4-oz mason jars and place them in a roasting pan filled halfway with hot water. Bake at 325°F for 25-30 minutes until the centers are set but slightly jiggly.
|
|
4. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
