  • If you ever wonder how to make French hot chocolate at home like in France, then this video is for you. The French hot chocolate can be served for breakfast or during cold winters days just in a mug in and enjoy it in the afternoon around tea time. get the recipe: bit.ly/3sErBds
    in this video I make a bit of a "gourmet" breakfast hot chocolate which is infused with vanilla and cinnamon . both of those spices bring a delicate flavour that goes really well with chocolate. I am saying gourmet but perhaps i should say contemporary instead, because the modern way of doing this would be for many French people to use of the shelf powder chocolate mix like banania with milk added to it to get a hot chocolate done. so yes it’s not like every home is making the effort of making that recipe from scratch but it is the real hot chocolate recipe .
    note: if you want a more liquid hot chocolate for easy drinking just add some more milk. in its more liquid form (with lots of milk) you can also drink that chocolate cold

    Hey man. I made your hot chocolate today, and though I was hopeful yet skeptical at first, when I sat down and dipped my croissant into it, it was like my tongue died and resurrected at the Pearly Gates of heaven where angels clothed it in your hot chocolate recipe. It was the perfect drink after I had gotten off of work. Thank you very much, with a recipe like this you can convince an entire warring nation to make peace after drinking a mug of this stuff. You have a nice day, I’m gonna go have another cup.

    One suggestion I have is to not add the vanilla extract until you’ve finished. Boiling the extract can turn it bitter. Now, if you used a vanilla pod, that could be added at the start without risking flavor.

    This is similar to the way it was served in the 17th and 18th centuries in chocolate houses before coffee became trendy. Back then it was even served for breakfast on cold days, but made much stronger than the milky hot chocolate we make today.
    PS You don't need to filter this if you make the cocoa powder into a little paste by adding tiny amounts of the milk. By just adding all the powder to the pan he created cocoa powder lumps!
    When you've made the paste quite milky, add this slowly to the pan. No lumps!

      @nathancarter6837 5 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      I think more than anything the filtering was to remove the foam and skim off the excess milk fats that float to the top from the reduction process (don't quote me on that though - just my educated guess). Still have a fair point about the cocoa clumps though :)

    • @SlickWillyTFCF
      @SlickWillyTFCF 5 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      Pretty sure that was more for the clumps and skin that form on heated milk more than it was for the cocoa powder lumps. A few seconds with a whisk would be good enough to get rid of cocoa powder lumps, but wouldn't do anything for the milk solids.

    I grew up eating “chocolate gravy and biscuits”. I never knew that it was “French”. Our southern version was fresh, homemade, buttermilk biscuits right out of the oven, cut in half and covered in chocolate gravy. To top it off, I always put a bit of butter on top and let it melt while eating. We didn’t have it often, but it was always a treat when we did.

    This is a little like how us Jamaicans make our chocolate tea, but we use the natural chocolate straight from the roasted bean that we grate into the milk. We add cinnamon as well as nutmeg a lot more sugar and more salt. You can use cows milk or freshly squeezed coconut milk. The result is a sweet and savoury chocolate with all the natural cocoa butter, which can burn your tongue if your not careful! It’s literally the nicest tea I’ve ever tasted. But this way looks easier, I’ll try this.

    In my country, Mexico, we discovered chocolate and invented that drink. Originally it was prepared with cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, chocolate and water. It is a different drink from the French one, which is also delicious. It can be taken hot or cold; it has more chocolate and cinnamon and it does not contain cocoa powder. Currently in rural areas, a cocoa paste is made with sugar and dissolved in water. You can also add mezcal for cold nights. I invite you to try it, it is delicious too. thanks for your recipe!

      You are 100% right. Cocoa beans and chocolate originated in Mexico, same as potatoes in South America.
      The Belgians planted this bean in the African Congo plantations and became famous for their chocolate. But it all came from Mexico and Central America. In fact, you serve a salty chocolate sauce called Mole with your dishes.

      If you liked this video, you may also want to know that there are a number of steps to making chocolate! First, cocoa beans are picked from the tree. At this stage, the beans are white and gooey. The beans are fermented for 2 weeks and left to dry. Once dry, the beans have turned brown! The dried beans are roasted to create more flavor, and finally, made into chocolate products!

    @mitsu7789 5 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I think some ppl have never tasted black chocolate at 70%... it's not sweet as you think, cocoa powder neither, that's why you have to put sugar into the preparation(quantity of sugar is all up to you tho, if you like it really sweet or just a little bit, like in the video recipe), otherwise the whole thing would be bitter.
    Edit : Bref ! Merci pour la recette j'la testerai bientôt 😋

      If you liked this video, you may also want to know that Chocolate can get a bad rap because of all the added sugar it may contain. However, dark chocolate or raw cocoa nibs have 0-maybe 6 g of added sugar, if you’re buying 80-95% cocoa. Always check the ingredient label to see how much added sugar is present, and consider buying dark chocolate or raw cocoa nibs!

      Though there are no vast and legal terms for hot Chocolate and hot cocoa hot cocoa is usually viewed upon as thinner and using only cocoa power instead of melting chocolate, hot cocoa will also not include other flavouring such as vanilla (which this recipe does have).
      Also this video is titled hot chocolate not cocoa.

But your recipe is fantastic. I used vanilla pods to infuse the milk and I didn't have cinnamon bark so I used a bit of powdered cinnamon. And I used goat milk since I allergic to cow milk protein so it is is quite strong but good. Merci, mon ami!

  • @GradeAMolvanian
    @GradeAMolvanian 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I've always been a big fan of using powder and solid chocolate. Just the former tastes fine, but lacks a bit of richness. Just the later often ends up without enough chocolate flavor. Though I like to cook a portion of the dairy and all of the sugar together to form a sort of Dulce de Leche. It's less sweet than sugar (though I start with more sugar, so it all evens out) but very complex and quite good.
