Food Scientist Makes Artisanal Ferrero Rocher | Reclaiming Chocolates and Confections

Описание: #ferrerorocher #gianduia

README

Yield: approximately 48 Artisanal Ferrero Rocher (AFR)

Ingredients to make the wafer shells (adapted from Claire Saffitz’s “Kit Kat” wafer recipe):
► 384 g cake flour
► 192 g corn starch
► 129 g Confectioners sugar
► 15 g baking powder
► 4 g Kosher salt
► 336 g unsalted butter, melted
► 540 water
► 30 g vanilla extract

Ingredients for the center hazelnut:
► 48 whole blanched, roasted hazelnuts

Ingredients to make chocolate-chopped hazelnut coating:
► milk or dark chocolate, as needed
► 500 g chopped blanched, roasted hazelnuts
Notes: You will need approximately 7 g of chopped nuts to fully cover each AFR (i.e., a total of approx. 336 g), but I recommend making a larger supply of chopped nuts to facilitate the coating process. I experienced a ~30% yield loss during the chopping and sifting process. If you experience a similar yield loss, you will need to start with approximately 714 g of whole hazelnuts to obtain 500 g of chopped hazelnuts. Note that these are rough estimates. Adjust accordingly.

Ingredients to make the gianduia:
Note: Each AFR holds approximately 14 g gianduia, but I recommend making excess. The recipe below makes approximately 800 g gianduia.
► 364 g ground blanched, roasted hazelnut
► 242 g dark chocolate
► 194 g Confectioners sugar
► 1 teaspoon Diamond kosher salt
► 8 g tempered, grated cocoa butter (for seeding)
