Description

Indulge in the decadent luxury of Namelaka Chocolate Ganache, a silky smooth blend of high-quality dark chocolate, milk, and cream. Perfect for filling tarts, frosting cakes, or as a sophisticated dessert component.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Ganache:

  • 3.5 oz (100g) whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon corn syrup or glucose
  • 3.5 oz (100g) high-quality dark chocolate (around 64%), finely chopped
  • 0.9 oz (25g) heavy cream (cold)
  • 0.6 oz (15g) unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ganache: Heat milk and corn syrup until simmering. Pour over chopped chocolate, let sit, and stir until smooth. Add butter and blend.
  2. Emulsify the Ganache: Incorporate cold cream with a blender until silky, avoiding air bubbles.
  3. Chill and Set: Cover ganache with plastic wrap touching the surface. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm and creamy.
  4. Usage: Use as tart filling, cake frosting, or plated dessert component.

Notes

  • For a softer set, reduce chocolate slightly.
  • Use couverture chocolate for best results.
  • Experiment with flavor variations like vanilla, coffee, or fruit purées.
