oday I’m making little chocolate and hazelnut deliciousness – choux craquelin filled with gianduia chocolate ganache, hazelnut whipped ganache and praliné paste! Yum!
an you imagine more satisfying comfort food than a slice (or two) of rich, luscious chocolate cake? I can’t – especially if there is orange included – now, THAT makes me weak at the knees, I kid you not!
he word nougat [ˈnuːɡət] comes from Occitan (also called Old Provençal) word pan nogat [ˈpa nuˈɣat], that seemingly came from Latin panis nucatus, meaning ‘nut bread’ (nucatum means ‘nutted’ or ‘nutty’). Nuts, right!?
