GELATINE MASS

Ingredients Total weight: ~ 21 g 100%

Powdered gelatine 200 Bloom 3g 14%


Cold water 18 g 86%

1 Pour the powdered gelatine into a clean container and add cold water. Gently stir with the whisk.

2 Put the mixture in the fridge for 10-15 minutes for the gelatine to swell and bloom.

3 Then take the mass out of the fridge and melt it. Remove the foam that might have formed with
a sieve if necessary.

4 Put the mass back into the fridge so that it sets completely. Then cut it into cubes with scissors
for more convenient weighing and work. The ratio of gelatine and water is always 1:6. We take
one part of gelatine and 6 parts of water.

5 You may make the gelatine mass in advance and store it in the fridge for 2 days.
TIP
If you use the gelatine leaves, take the same amount of them as the gelatine in grams and soak them in cold water. The
gelatine leaves will absorb the right amount of water they need. Then squeeze them out and use them as it is said.

whisk attachment at low speed first, gradually increasing it to medium high and whip to “soft
serve ice cream” texture.

the centre of the tart, on top of the whipped ganache layer.

8 Put the tarts in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to set.

9 Pipe the domes with the rest of the whipped ganache on top of the confit.

ganache and fill these craters with the confit.
