Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- Heavy cream or coconut cream – Provides a rich velvety texture that enhances the depth of flavors.
- Dark chocolate 70% or higher – Adds an intense cocoa taste with just the right amount of bitterness.
- Ube or matcha powder – Infuses the dessert with a vibrant color and an earthy slightly sweet flavor.
- Miso or black sesame paste – The secret ingredient that delivers a savory contrast to the sweetness.
- Raw honey or maple syrup – Natural sweeteners that add a complex caramel-like depth.
- Almond or hazelnut flour – Enhances texture while adding a subtle nuttiness.
- Sea salt flakes – A tiny pinch enhances all the flavors and makes each bite more dynamic.
Flavor Boosters (Optional, but Highly Recommended)
- Citrus zest orange or yuzu – Brings a refreshing brightness that balances richness.
- Edible rose petals or saffron – Adds a floral aroma and an elegant touch.
- Toasted coconut or candied ginger – Introduces a crunchy contrast and a hint of spice.
Choosing the Best Ingredients
- Use high-quality chocolate for a smoother melt and richer taste.
- If using miso go for white or mild miso to avoid overpowering the dessert.
- Adjust the sweetness based on your preference keeping in mind that natural sweeteners have unique flavor profiles.
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Base
- In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate over a double boiler, stirring gently until smooth.
- Once melted, remove from heat and let it cool slightly while you prepare the other ingredients.
Step 2: Infuse the Flavors
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream (or coconut cream) over low heat until warm but not boiling.
- Stir in the ube or matcha powder, ensuring it dissolves completely for an even, vibrant color.
- Add the miso or black sesame paste and whisk until fully incorporated. This step creates the perfect balance of sweet and umami flavors.
Step 3: Blend for the Perfect Consistency
- Slowly pour the warm cream mixture into the melted chocolate, whisking constantly to create a silky, glossy texture.
- Stir in raw honey or maple syrup for natural sweetness, adjusting to taste.
- Add a pinch of sea salt flakes to enhance the flavor depth.
Step 4: Chill and Set
- Pour the mixture into a lined dish or silicone molds for easy removal.
- Sprinkle optional toppings like citrus zest, edible rose petals, or toasted coconut for added texture and aroma.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 to 3 hours, or until fully set.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
- Once firm, cut into bite-sized portions or unmold for a refined presentation.
- Garnish with additional toppings if desired, and serve immediately for the best flavor experience.
