Chocolate roulade<\/strong>
\nBy Capsicum Culinary Studio\u2019s Samantha Davis<\/em>
\nYou\u2019ll need:<\/strong> 3 large eggs, separated; 175g caster sugar; 1 tsp cornflour; finely grated zest of 1 large orange; 200g unsweetened chestnut pur\u00e9e; 15g cocoa powder, sifted; 2 pinches cream of tartar
\nFor the filling – 2 level tablespoons cocoa powder, sifted; 5 level tablespoons icing sugar, sifted; pinch ground cardamom; 300ml double cream, lightly whipped; 75g extra bitter chocolate, melted
\nHow to:<\/strong>
\nPreheat oven to 200\u00baC and line a 30cm x 23cm Swiss roll tin with baking paper then brush with melted butter.
\nPlace egg yolks in a food mixer with 125g of the caster sugar and orange zest and whisk until thick and pale. Whisk in chestnut pur\u00e9e and fold in cocoa powder and cornflour. In another bowl, whisk the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Add 50g of caster sugar and whisk lightly so the meringue is soft, not stiff.
\nFold the two mixtures together and spoon into the Swiss roll tray. Bake in the oven for 12 \u2013 15 minutes, or until springy to the touch. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely, then turn out onto baking paper sprinkled with caster sugar and peel off the lining paper.
\nIn a bowl, add the cream and fold in the melted chocolate. Add the cocoa powder, icing sugar and ground cardamom and mix. Spread the cream mixture evenly onto the cake and then start to roll up the cake starting with one of the short edges and rolling tightly using the paper to help. Leave in the fridge for an hour. Drizzle with melted chocolate, sprinkle over icing sugar and decorate with cherries.<\/p>\n

Well-known food writer and TV personality at thefoodfox.com<\/a>, Ilse van der Merwe\u2019s Double Chocolate Brownies with smoked paprika & salt<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

You’ll need:\u00a0<\/span><\/u>230g (almost 1 cup) butter;\u00a0<\/span>375g (1 4\/5 cup) sugar;\u00a0<\/span>125g (1 cup) cocoa powder;\u00a0<\/span>10ml (2 teaspoons) smoked paprika, plus extra for sprinkling;\u00a0<\/span>2,5ml (1\/2 teaspoon) salt;\u00a0<\/span>5ml vanilla extract;\u00a0<\/span>3 XL eggs;\u00a0<\/span>100g (3\/4 cup) cake flour;\u00a0<\/span>100g (1 cup) walnuts, roughly chopped;\u00a0<\/span>80g coffee flavoured dark chocolate (or plain dark chocolate); s<\/span>moked salt, for sprinkling<\/span><\/p>\n

How to:<\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 170\u00b0C and position the rack in the lower third of the oven. In a medium pot over low heat, melt the butter (do not boil). <\/span><\/p>\n

When completely melted, remove from the heat and add the sugar, cocoa powder, paprika and salt to the warm pot. Stir with a wooden spoon until well mixed, then add the vanilla and one egg at a time, mixing very well between the additions of each egg. <\/span><\/p>\n

When the mixture is thick and glossy, stir in the flour (no need to sift) until no streaks remain, then keep stirring for exactly 40 strokes. Now stir in the chopped walnuts. Line a 30x20cm baking tin with non-stick baking paper, then transfer the brownie mixture into the lined tin, edging it evenly into all corners. <\/span><\/p>\n

Bake for 20-22 minutes until the middle is risen but still very soft (it must look slightly under-baked), then remove from the oven to cool completely. For the top layer, break the chocolate into smaller blocks and melt in a small bowl in the microwave at 30 second increments until fully melted. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pour over the brownies, then spread evenly all over. Sprinkle lightly with smoked salt flakes and some smoked paprika, then cut into bars\/squares when the chocolate has firmed up. Enjoy with Roodeberg Classic Red Blend<\/a> and store in an airtight container for up to five days.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to store chocolate … by Kate Waller, The Chocolate Tier<\/strong>
\n\u201cChocolate should always be stored in a slightly cool, dry, dark place such as a pantry or cupboard less than 21 degrees Celsius to ensure the quality isn\u2019t compromised. Now, most of you will start shouting now and ask me when any part of South Africa is consistently below 21 degrees? Even in Winter. In fact, a lot of you tell me how you prefer to keep it in the freezer. However\u2026 we do know that the fridge ruins chocolate, even in
\na heatwave it is best not to keep your chocolate in a fridge. If the chocolate is uncovered, you will find it draws in all the smells and flavours from the other foods kept in the fridge. If you keep it in a sealed container, you may find condensation takes place and as any chocolate lover knows, water and chocolate are NOT the best of friends. In my opinion, there are only two places where chocolate should be stored. In your mouth.
\nIn your tummy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Triple chocolate tart<\/strong>
\nYou\u2019ll need:<\/strong> \u00bd large packet (250g) Romany Creams; 1\/3 cup butter, melted; 2 large slabs (150g each) Belgian dark chocolate; 500ml home-made chocolate mousse
\nFor the chocolate mousse – 5 eggs, separated; 450ml cream; 240g Belgian chocolate; 170ml black coffee; 2 shots brandy; 4 x 10g Gelatin leaves; 20ml vanilla essence; 100g sifted cocoa powder; 100g castor sugar
\nNice to have – Extra-large slab (150g) Belgian dark chocolate; 1 Tbsp milk; strawberries, for serving
\nHow to:<\/strong>
\nFor the chocolate mousse:
\nSeparate the egg whites and yolks. Place egg whites into a large wide bowl suitable for whisking and set aside.
\nMeasure out the cream into a deep bowl suitable for whisking. Whisk with the hand mixer until stiff peak, cover with cling wrap and keep in the fridge.
\nMake sure the coffee is hot, dissolve the gelatin leaves into the coffee. Add brandy and vanilla essence.
\nIn a large flat bowl suitable for a double boiler, place the chocolate cocoa powder and coffee mixture into the bowl and allow the ingredients to melt gently over low heat stirring occasionally
\nOnce everything is melted, smooth and looking glossy, remove from the heat immediately and stir in the egg yolks. Make sure you are stirring well.
\nRemove cream from the fridge. Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks.
\nFold in the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture, folding gently to knock out all the air bubbles, then do the same with the egg white.
\nPlace the mousse into your container of choice for setting. Allow at least two hours to set in the fridge.
\nFor the rest of the tart:
\nBlitz biscuits in a food processor until finely crumbed. Add melted butter and blitz to combine.
\nPress crumb mixture into the base of a 22cm tart dish (even out using the back of a spoon).
\nMelt the two chocolate slabs in a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water until smooth.
\nRemove from heat and cool to room temperature – make sure it does not set again.
\nMix your home-made mousse into the cooled chocolate. Spoon chocolate mixture into a tart dish, smoothing out with the back of a spoon.
\nPlace in the fridge to set for about 30 \u2013 40 minutes
\nOptional:
\nMelt extra chocolate with milk and allow to cool slightly. Pour over chilled chocolate tart, spreading to cover the mousse completely.
\nRefrigerate tart again for at least 30 minutes so that the chocolate topping hardens.
\nServe with strawberries if you like.
\nGood idea – Make individual no slice tarts in ramekins.<\/p>\n
