Food Scientist Makes Artisanal 3 Musketeers | Reclaiming Chocolates and Confections

In this video, I'm using Peter P. Greweling's "Soft Chocolate Nougat" formulation from his book Chocolates and Confections: Formula, Theory, and Technique for the Artisan Confectioner, 2nd Edition. Find the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Chocolates-Con... If this is your first time making nougat, I recommend increasing the ingredient amounts by 10% to account for potential yield loss. Ingredients: ► 90 g dark chocolate notes: I used Callebaut Recipe N° 811 54.5% cocoa. ► 30 g cocoa butter ► 50 g milk powder, ground to a fine powder ► 50 g cocoa powder notes: The recipe did not specify whether to use natural or dutch-processed cocoa powder. I used dutch-processed cocoa powder. ► 30 g Confectioners’ sugar ► 50 g egg whites ► 50 g glucose syrup notes: I used corn syrup. In the video at 05:59, I state "combine the egg whites and the 25 g of glucose syrup in the bowl of a stand mixer". I misspoke. It should be 50 g of glucose syrup as stated here. Apologies for this error. ► 540 g glucose syrup notes: I used corn syrup. ► 470 g sugar ► 130 g water ► 10 g vanilla extract ► Dark chocolate, melted and tempered, for precoating and dipping notes: I used Callebaut Recipe N° 811 54.5% cocoa.

This video explains how to achieve that texture, if you're interested.
