    So I have made Alvin Zhou's brownies and I can definitely agree with Emmy here. Here were my notes.
    -The most notable thing about the flavor of these brownies is that they are not very sweet. I'm not the biggest brownie fan since they tend to be one dimension sugary/fudgey tasting, but these do have that complexity from all the steps and special ingredients involved.
    -Alvin says the coffee is just used to accentuate the chocolate taste; but the coffee taste is very noticible. Only make this if you enjoy coffee and dark chocolate.
    -I strained the brown butter to remove the espresso grounds which I definitely believe they kept the brownies from being gritty.
    -I also happened to overbake my brownies but they still stand well being on the more cakey/dry side.
    Overall, I would recommend these brownies but you should not expect that you are getting anything similar to a basic brownie at all. These are the kind of brownies who appeal to people who like more bittersweet desserts. Although they are good, I would preferably point people in the direction of his 48 hour cookies which use the same technique but are far far better imo.
    Thanks for doing the coverage, Emmy!

    • @mothgames9466
      @mothgames9466 3 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      yeah I definitely won't be making them I'm so glad I saw this comment and the video. They just look too fudgey which I didn't know was possibly until I saw the video.
      I use a teaspoon of espresso powder in my own choc chip cookies which does wonders for the flavour but seeing a tablespoon nevermind 2 tbsps in this recipe had massive alarm bells ringing for me.
      it seems to just be a bit too much which is a shame as I love to ferment / let my baking batters/doughs develop normally.
      So glad I saw this stuff and didn't lose time!

    • @-desertpackrat
      @-desertpackrat 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I love bittersweet, but I'd probably just chill it until it solidifies to a fudge-state and then bake them, I'm not sure what chilling after baking will even do except to dry them out, but I do like how the chill process of the batter itself before baking seems to condense the brownie, at least it looks like it does.

      Thank you for sharing your experience. I absolutely hate coffee in all forms except for a small amount in my favorite chocolate cake recipe. It’s one teaspoon for a three layer 8” cake. So pretty small. I also hate dark chocolate. This is definitely not the recipe for me.

    • @SakuraiKunLikes
      @SakuraiKunLikes 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      If I were to make this recipe, I would change most of the measurements and process. I would reduce a lot of the expresso powder to around 1-2 teaspoon, half the chopped chocolate amount in the batter, use semi-sweet chocolate, reduce the sugar amount a bit since the the coffee powder was reduced drastically and changes to the type of chocolate, and will just put the batter in the fridge for a day since 3 days is just overkill.
      His technique of whipping eggs and putting the hot brownies straight into the fridge was correct for having fudgy chewy brownies since I've been making and improving my own brownies since 10 years ago so I have a lot of experience on hand :)

  • @sparrowwilson4514
    @sparrowwilson4514 3 ปีที่แล้ว +744

    I suspect you rest the batter for several days to allow the bitter flavours to mature and mellow out, but I imagine the same effect would be achieved by putting less bitter ingredients in the first place. Seems kind of an unnecessary step tbh.

    • @fenzelian
      @fenzelian 3 ปีที่แล้ว +60

      What’s probably happening is that the texture of the batter is relaxing and smoothing (through the exchange of water and the unwinding of gluten), so it will cook more evenly and be less tough. The bitterness is not necessarily just from the ingredients, it could also come from parts of the batter burning because the water in the batter is not evenly distributed or the ingredients are hard to mix effectively in these intense ratios.

    I love baking and I actually made these shortly after watching the original video. I loved them. I halved the amount of espresso used but did everything else the same. Not like a traditional brownie, but they were so luxurious and unlike any other brownie I've had before. Texture was incredible straight from the refrigerator and also warmed up with a scoop of vanilla gelato on top. Not something I'd bake all the time but for a special occasion for a chocolate lover, these are 100% worth it.

    Just as an FYI for everyone who wants to make them. I followed Emmy‘s written recipe on her website and her measurements are a bit off.
    She calls for 188g of flour rather than the 215g in the original recipe which probably wouldn’t make a huge difference. But she also states 250g of sugar rather the 450g in Alvin‘s recipe. Mine came out really bitter due to that and they weren’t as fudgy as I had hoped 🙈

    The grittiness is probably the brand of espresso powder you used. I only use Medaglia D'Oro and it never ever makes things gritty, it always dissolves smoothly and leaves a homogenous liquid and I've never had issues, I use it for ice cream, yogurt, syrups and sauces, marinades, smoothies, it's one of the best dissolving instant coffees out there and a smooth bold espresso taste. It also makes a great cup of espresso if you're okay with an instant substitute with a faux crema.

    when the recipe stated or called for espresso powder, I was caught off guard as espresso powder is finely ground coffee bean (where i live), they are not instant coffee and does not dissolve in liquid. So i was thinking that the end product would definitely be gritty due to the espresso powder. If i were to try this recipe, i would definitely swap the espresso powder to instant coffee powder or at least substitute the frozen coffee with one or two shots of espresso.
    edit: seems like my comment was triggering so here is a disclaimer; my suggestions are based on where i live, type of ingredients available and details i got from the video.

      Emmy mentioned that after 100hrs you still do get a little grittiness though not as pronounced or obvious as before the 100hrs.

    I once had something in a cruise ship’s specialty restaurant that seems very similar to this recipe.The brownie was cut into little bite-sized cubes. They were very rich and fudge-like with intense espresso flavor. Being a fan of decadence, dark chocolate, AND espresso flavored things, it was one of the best desserts I’d ever had. The brownies were served warm with a scoop of vanilla bean gelato, which really helped contrast and balance out the boldness of the brownies. Not a practical dessert, but one I’d definitely recommend for a very special occasion or holiday.

    Fascinating, as always! I’m glad I watched this before attempting to make these brownies. My husband wants to try them so I was researching them here to see how different chefs like them. I think I’ll pull back on the coffee/espresso and use less dark chocolate. Maybe the dark for the melted chocolate but all milk chocolate for the chopped chocolate bits. I suppose I could go with a 50-60% dark instead of 75% dark, too. Ghirardelli offers many options!
