Chocolate Glaze with Absolu Cristal\n<\/a><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

For this glaze, you need to make a properly emulsified ganache. When you see your ganache has an elastic, shiny core, this means the texture is perfect. You can then incorporate the Absolu Cristal<\/a>, heated to 160\u00b0F (70\u00b0C), using a blender. Be careful not to create air bubbles. If necessary, get rid of any last air bubbles with an immersion blender to homogenise the glaze and give it good hold and excellent shine.<\/p>

Check the glaze is at 85-95\u00b0F (30-35\u00b0C) for glazes made with dark couverture chocolate<\/a>, 82-85\u00b0F (28-30\u00b0C) for glazes made with milk couverture<\/a> or\u00a0Blond Dulcey chocolate<\/a>, or 79-82\u00b0F (26-28\u00b0C) for glazes made with white couverture.<\/a><\/p>

Pour the glaze over the dessert then use a spatula to remove any excess and smooth the surface. For an even more impeccable result, you can trim your gateau by removing any glaze that has run beyond the desired surface.<\/p>

Let the chocolate gateau, dessert or any other gourmet creations you have glazed cool before serving.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
