15.01.2022 PETER GILMORE'S CHOCOLATE MOUSSE INGREDIENTS 325g dark chocolate 500ml cream... 4 egg yolks 3 egg whites 50g superfine caster sugar vanilla bean, split and scraped METHOD Measure and weigh out all ingredients in preparation Finely chop the chocolate and melt it over a double boiler to keep warm. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Make a sabayon by combining the egg yolks, sugar and vanilla bean. Cook over a double boiler, whisking continuously until the egg yolks become thick and glossy, then remove the sabayon from the heat. Have the whipped cream ready nearby. Pour all of the melted chocolate into the warm sabayon and, with a large hand-whisk, beat as fast as you can to incorporate all the chocolate. The chocolate will begin to seize at that point youll need to add 1 large kitchen tablespoon of whipped cream. Continue to whisk. The cream will help soften the mixture. Add another large spoonful of cream and whisk vigorously for another minute. The chocolate, egg and cream mixture will now be more workable and relatively stable. You should have half the whipped cream left. Immediately whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Place the whisked egg whites and the remaining cream on top of the chocolate mixture and gently fold through until well incorporated. Place the mousse in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours before serving. Once the mousse has set, serve with fresh raspberries. This great recipe is from Australian Eggs

Then fold in cornflour and vinegar. Turn out onto tray; using a palette knife or spatula, spread the mixture across the baking paper (approx. 30cm x 24cm), building up the sides a little and creating a few tips and dips in the meringue as you go. (A wet spoon, spatula or palette knife helps.) Bake in very slow oven about 1 hours or until set and dry. Surface should be dry to touch). Turn oven off and prop door ajar with a wooden spoon and cool in oven. For the curd: Put the strawberries in a small saucepan with the sugar, butter, lemon zest and lemon juice. Stir over low heat until the butter has melted and the sugar dissolved. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, then remove from the heat. Lightly beat the egg yolks in a large bowl then, stirring constantly, slowly add the strawberry mixture in a thin stream. The mixture will thicken as you add it. Return to low heat and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Do not allow the mixture to boil or the curd will curdle. Test by running a finger across the back of the spoon to ensure the curd is thick and does not run. Put into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to prevent a skin forming. To assemble: Whip cream with sugar and vanilla. Spread a small spoon of cream on a flat serving plate. Place pavlova on top then fill pavlova with curd, cream (ensuring you can still see some of the curd), then berries. Shave chocolate curls from a block of chocolate.

08.01.2022 PETER GILMORES CHOCOLATE MOUSSE INGREDIENTS 325g dark chocolate 500ml cream... 4 egg yolks 3 egg whites 50g superfine caster sugar vanilla bean, split and scraped METHOD Measure and weigh out all ingredients in preparation Finely chop the chocolate and melt it over a double boiler to keep warm. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Make a sabayon by combining the egg yolks, sugar and vanilla bean. Cook over a double boiler, whisking continuously until the egg yolks become thick and glossy, then remove the sabayon from the heat. Have the whipped cream ready nearby. Pour all of the melted chocolate into the warm sabayon and, with a large hand-whisk, beat as fast as you can to incorporate all the chocolate. The chocolate will begin to seize at that point youll need to add 1 large kitchen tablespoon of whipped cream. Continue to whisk. The cream will help soften the mixture. Add another large spoonful of cream and whisk vigorously for another minute. The chocolate, egg and cream mixture will now be more workable and relatively stable. You should have half the whipped cream left. Immediately whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Place the whisked egg whites and the remaining cream on top of the chocolate mixture and gently fold through until well incorporated. Place the mousse in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours before serving. Once the mousse has set, serve with fresh raspberries. This great recipe is from Australian Eggs

05.01.2022 CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP INGREDIENTS BROTH: 40g ginger, roughly sliced... 6 cloves garlic 2 star anise 1 cinnamon stick 1 tbsp sea salt 1.5kg chicken 4L cold water 100mL soy sauce 50mL shaoxing wine or sake 1 tbsp brown sugar NOODLES: 400g 00 or plain flour, plus extra to dust Pinch sea salt tsp baking powder 3 eggs TO SERVE: 6 poached or soft-boiled eggs Toasted sesame seeds Fried shallots Coriander Lime wedges Sesame oil or chilli oil METHOD In a large pot place the ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon stick, sea salt and chicken. Cover with the water and bring to the boil over high heat. As soon as it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and allow it to gently simmer for 1.5 hours, skimming any impurities from the surface as it cooks. Meanwhile for the noodles, tip the flour onto a clean work surface and scatter over the salt and baking powder. Make a well in the centre and crack in the eggs. Gently whisk the eggs and slowly bring in the flour and mix to incorporate. When the dough becomes stiff, use your hands to bring it together it shouldnt be too crumbly, but also not sticky. Alternatively combine all of the ingredients in the bowl of the processor and pulse until a rough dough forms. Knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Flatten into a disc, cover with an empty bowl inverted onto the bench or plastic wrap and allow to rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Divide the pasta dough into four pieces. Cover three of the pieces and set aside. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough out using a rolling pin into a rough disc shape around 3mm thick. Roll the dough through a pasta machine set to the widest setting, then continue to roll through the narrower settings until the noodle sheet is around 1.5mm thick. Use the spaghetti attachment of your machine to cut the sheet into thin noodles, or alternatively roll up the sheet from the shortest side and cut using a sharp knife to create thin noodles. Flour the noodles so they dont stick and repeat the process with the remaining dough. Set the noodles aside while you finish the broth. Strain the stock into a smaller pot (you should have around 3 litres). Once cool enough to handle, coarsely shred the chicken meat and set aside in a bowl, discarding the bones and remaining ingredients. Season the broth with the soy sauce, shaoxing wine or sake and sugar and adjust the seasoning accordingly. Keep the pot of broth hot over a low heat while you cook the noodles. Bring a pot of water to the boil and cook the noodles for around 2 minutes or until al dente. Divide the noodles into serving bowls and pour over the hot broth. Add some shredded chicken and top each bowl with a poached egg, sesame seeds, fried shallots, plenty of coriander, lime and sesame or chilli oil. Thanks to Australian Eggs for this recipe.
