Chef's Table

Cooking is said to be therapeutic. In today's hectic world, unless we engross ourselves into something relaxing, will be crazy, by the end of the day... So just get into the kitchen & try to be creative using your imagination. It need not be anything grand, just something simple & satisfying. The measurement in the recipes are as is used by me. Please adjust to suit your own taste.

Ingredients

150g dark chocolate, melted
6 egg whites,
6 eggyolks
3 T. sugar
2cups heavy cream
Fresh Strawberries
Procedure:
  1. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler until no longer solid. Remove from heat and continue to mix gently as it cools down. Add egg yolks and sugar and blend at high speed until mixed thoroughly.
  2.  In a separate, grease-free mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until peaks form. In a third bowl, whip the cream slightly until soft peaks form but before it loses its liquidity.
  3.  First fold the egg whites into the chocolate-yolk mixture, and hand mix gently with a spatula until all ingredients have been incorporated. Then add the cream, scraping the sides to make sure the mixture is homogeneous.
  4.  Pour into individual serving containers or log form and freeze for several hours.
  5. Serve with puree fruits or chocolate syrup.
