Notes
You could make this into a regular benighted chocolate nutella by replacing the cocoa butter for 30g cocoa powder ( unsweetened ) and 10-20g water ( optional ) .
A few months ago I posted a homemade healthy nutella recipe which is healthier than the Nutella or early choco spreads we find in stores. This weekend I was curious to try two things. first, to experiment with the white chocolate adaptation, or Nocilla blanca, as we know it in Spain. second, I wanted to try an flush healthier nutella. When I say ‘ goodly ’ hera, I mean using more whole foods and less refined/processed ingredients .
The only ingredient that is refined in the recipe I posted a while ago is the bait ; I used agave syrup or honey. This time, I wanted to test using dates, as they have a moo GI exponent ( 42 ± 4 ) and are a healthier sweetening than the most commonly-used ones. I followed Chef Bosquet ’ randomness date caramel recipe and besides was inspired by his recipe for cacao spreads .
I was a act apprehensive that the taste of date would be excessively firm, but the result was amazingly dear ! The date flavor is milder than expected because it ’ s combined with water and cooked at abject temperature. The texture is very creamy because of the caramel and the nut butter. The white nutella requires a fiddling extra sweeten if made with the cocoa butter, because if you use melted white chocolate, it already contains sugar. You cna find cocoa butter in any health storehouse or on-line, by the way .
Because I was curious to make the regular blue cocoa nutella, I made a batch with cocoa gunpowder excessively – it required a moment of extra water to get the same fluid texture as the white nutella. The result was rich, creamy and the sweet was lighter .
If you try this recipe let me know what you think. If you made any adjustments ( using early nuts, flavours… ) I would like to hear your thoughts besides !
Enjoy 🙂
