II. BROWNIE BISCUIT

- 625 g Emotion 58 Belgian dark couverture chocolate
- 350 g Flour T55
- 20 g Baking powder
- 150 gRoasted hazelnut
PROCESS
Mix whole eggs with cane sugar and salt without incorporating air. Meanwhile, bring to 80°C fresh cream with butter and pour over the dark couverture chocolate to make a ganache. Add this to the whole eggs and add the sifted flour with the baking powder. Spread on baking tray with edge and sprinkle the roasted hazelnuts on top. Bake at 170°C during 20 min, close damper.

- 2 pc Vanilla Bean
- 480 g Butter
PROCESS
Caramelize glucose with sugar. Stop the caramelization with condensed milk, then add cream, salt and vanilla seeds. Boil the preparation to evaporate some water until you get 950 g. It’s easier to reduce more, scale and add the missing water to reach the good weight. Add butter and blend well. Let crystallize in the refrigerator.

A bit of history ;-)) : According to Chinese traditions, coins should be tied with a red thread, fire element. Indeed, if you want to link together a Feng Shui coin, or Chinese coin, you must use a red cord or thread to activate success and prosperity.
