A fine dose of gourmandise with this creamy chocolate and cocoa tuile spiced up with olive powder and black fruity olive oil. A dish to be found at Opaline, by Alexis Guillon and Charlotte Troi.

Serves 4

Preparation time: 35 min

Cooking time : 55 min

Rest : 24 h

 

Cocoa tuile

  • 75 g butter, softened
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 100 g flour
  • 60 g cocoa powder
  • 6 egg whites

Chocolate cream

  • 25 cl milk
  • 250 g cream
  • 5 egg yolks
  • 50 g sugar
  • 200 g dark chocolate

150 g black olives

  • Black fruity olive oil
  • Flower of salt
  • Salt

 

1 - The day before, make the cocoa tuile dough: mix the powdered sugar and softened butter, then gradually add the flour and sifted cocoa. Add the egg whites and mix gradually, without emulsifying the mixture. Refrigerate.

2 - On the big day, make the chocolate cremeux: warm the milk and cream together in a saucepan. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture whitens and pour into the warmed milk and cream mixture, then emulsify. Cook the mixture in the saucepan like a custard, but do not exceed 84°C. Pour the mixture over the chocolate pieces and stir. Chill until ready to serve.

3 - Prepare the cocoa tuile: roll out the cocoa tuile paste thinly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 150°C (gas mark 5) and bake for 10 min. Once cooked, leave to cool on the baking sheet.

4 - Make the olive powder: place the black olives in a container in the oven at 180°C (gas mark 6) for 30 min. Once roasted and cooled, remove and blend them. This should produce a fine black powder.

5 - Presentation: make 2 quenelles of chocolate cream, add the olive powder, a few grains of fleur de sel and a dash of olive oil. Break the tuile and spread the pieces over the top.
