Chocolate Strawberry Cream truffle

-


Gooey and creamy textured desert on a platform of its own, comparable to nothing that I can put my finger on. Really delicious especially for chocolate lovers. The inside is soft and chewy while the outside once set is a soft chocolate crust with fresh pieces of strawberries centered in between the two. Looking for a dessert to make that won't keep you in the kitchen for long. Heres your winner. A crowd pleaser and simple to make. 

Chocolate Strawberry Cream Truffle
Servings: 12 Servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Source: Elise Jackson

Ingredients
2 tbsp margarine
2 cups heavy cream
2 cans sweetened condensed milk
200g milk chocolate
1 box of fresh strawberries, washed and sliced

In a small pot on low heat put your butter and condensed milk and cook stirring constantly until you see it starting to thicken and bubble and it begins to slide off of the bottom of the pan. This will take about 15 minutes. The key in this step is to constantly stir in a figure 8 motion. If you stop stirring it will quickly stick to the pan and burn. 

Once this step is done, add in your heavy cream and continue mixing for about 3 more minutes. Remove from the fire and pour this cream into your serving dish. Allow to cool completely and then place your fresh strawberries layered on top. 

In a separate pan in a double boiler ( meaning with a pot of water on the bottom and on top of it a smaller pot or metal bowl with your ingredients inside to cook based on the steam alone and not too much heat from the fire) Find a picture and the meaning of double boiler here add your milk chocolate pieces inside of this double boiler and cook for about 5-7 minutes whisking constantly until it is creamy and smooth. Pour this pure melted chocolate on top of your strawberries and allow to cool before refrigerating overnight or for about 4-5 hours before serving.

Do you get a white ooze when cooking Salmon?

Does your salmon often look like this when you cook it? Tried baking, frying, poaching it but this stuff keeps coming out? Quick tip: when cooking salmon it is common for a white sort of cream to come oozing out all around the fish. Though it does not affect the taste. It can be found to be annoying and not pretty. But I found the trick to solving this problem, it happens because salmon is an oily fish, there are many oils within the fish itself. When cooking all of these oils come out in the form of this white ooze, normally from my own experience, when this happens the fish tends to become dry. Because now all of that moisture and oils meant to keep the fish succulent and juicy was just taken out. I found a solution to this problem. To keep all the oils locked in, you need to dry out the surface of the fish.  Before seasoning drizzle a little bit of vinegar on the fish and rub it in well. Continue your seasoning process. You will see that your problem will be resolved. ...

Mommy Grandma Here is my beautiful mother and my grandmother both of whom I love dearly. Oh, yes. And look at my darling twin sister. My mirror, my look alike. which one am I? Do you know? Well my mom and grandma were  both born in Furna - Brava, Cape Verde also known for its portuguese name as CaboVerde. A portuguese speaking Island off of the coast of West Africa. Me in CapeVerde In CapeVerde just like in any other Country there are many traditional dishes such as 2 of the main ones. Cuscus - a breakfast bread and Cachupa- a heavy soup for lunch. These are 2 of my favorite Capeverdian foods along with others such as funginho, gigacida, and the list goes on. Cuscus is a breakfast food. For those of you who don't know what it is, its similar to a corn muffin or a corn type of bread. It is made fresh and eaten whilst hot off of the stove spread with loads of butter to melt nicely on top. I love eating this with my favorite rasberry tea. Some of you might hate i...
