Method

Chocolate Crémeux Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt Chocolate

    In a heatproof bowl, melt dark chocolate over a double boiler until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Prepare Cream Mixture

    In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until just simmering. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract. Gradually pour the hot cream into the egg mixture while whisking constantly.

  3. 3

    Combine & Chill

    Once combined, pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the melted chocolate. Pour into molds and refrigerate until set.

Salted Caramel Preparation

  1. 4

    Make Caramel

    In a saucepan, heat the granulated sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns a golden brown color. Add the butter and stir until melted, then slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously.

  2. 5

    Remove from heat and stir in the sea salt. Allow to cool slightly before using.

Torched Banana Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare Bananas

    Slice the bananas in half lengthwise and sprinkle brown sugar on the cut side.

    Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar on the bananas until golden and bubbly.

Raspberry Sauce Preparation

  1. 8

    Cook Raspberries

    In a saucepan, combine fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens.

  2. 9

    Strain Sauce

    Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Allow to cool.
