This is a recipe you can use to take your guests by surprise. Most people don't expect anything of a smokey nature to hit them during dessert. This works well because white chocolate tends to be sweeter than dark, so the bitterness of the smoke works to balance the flavour profile. If you like, you can thicken this with a little more chocolate and get a nice smoked ganache to use in truffles.
You will need:
150g white chocolate
150g cream
90g milk
smoker
Method:
- mix the milk and the cream
- place in a pan and cover with cheesecloth (to keep out any particles from the smoker)
- smoke for an hour and a half
- chop the chocolate if it is not already in small chips
- remove the mix and put in a sauce pot
- bring to a simmer
- pour over the chocolate
- stir to emulsify
- allow to cool before using
