@The_Keeper Год назад

About the Mexican Hot Chocolate Cocktail; When using dry spices, its always a good thing to let them simmer out into the mixture. It takes a while for the various flavoring agents in the spices to rehydrate and diffuse into the drink. Not to mention that the various oils need a little time to "harmonize". So simmering it for 30 mins. or above is *Highly* recommended.

@bartolomeothesatyr Год назад

Inductive cooktops use magnetic fields to heat the metal of the pan indirectly; the cooktops themselves don't heat up, they only absorb as much heat as is radiated back by the bottom of the pan, so the insulating glass surface doesn't get that hot.

Sometimes it's tough following creators because you end up finding out they have ideologies that are completely against your own. Not minor things, but finding out that someone is a bigot, or that they don't mind exploitation.

I make Sahlab which is like hot vanilla sometimes with rosewater and pistachios/cinnamon. I add rum usually. It’s thicker than a normal drink more like a drinkable pudding. So amazing on cold/snowy days like today.

@kadnhart6661 Год назад

That sounds amazing! Do you think you could share your recipe? The ones I just looked up don't have rosewater

@sarahnichols8485 Год назад

@@kadnhart6661, I use a drink mix which contains an extremely small amount of sahlab (essentially orchid bulb flour) and cornstarch in it. I add rosewater myself, carefully. The strength varies and everyone has different tolerances to it. I have made a from scratch cornstarch recipe but it doesn’t have the same flavor as the mix. I have also attempted to obtain sahlab on its own but was unsuccessful. I usually use an atomizing “squirty” for the rosewater and one mist over the cup before I serve is my favorite.

As one of the non-drinkers inexplicably drawn to/enjoying Greg's content, I appreciate how this episode also has the regular cocoa/hot chocolate/mocha recipes built in (though possibly aiming a bit sweeter to balance out missing liqueurs, like the chocolate he put back for the hot chocolate, but that part's to taste, so). I've never really known the stovetop method for cocoa/hot chocolate, before. Thanks for the bonus!

@nathanmerrifield2309 Год назад

My partner introduced me to their wonderful hot cocoa creation which was Hot Cocoa (duh), orange liqueur (Ideally Cointreau), and mocha powder and/or coffee. He calls it the "Quick Brown Fox" and its fucking deeeelicious. Going sliiightly off topic of hot drinks now but I went ahead and made a different version at a Halloween party last year- no Hot Cocoa, so we used a THICCC chocolate liqueur, coffee liqueur... and they were all out of Cointreau. Only orange liqueur was triple-sec. I wasn't sure how to go about making it hot, and my mind began to wander and, though I was hesitant at first, I noticed they had Fanta. I then recalled something from your show about how carbonization elongates flavor profiles. So I made a usually hot drink into a cold one (added some ice to the shaker- one shattered one whole), poured it, and added the Fanta and holy crap that was a yummy drink. PROBABLY to sweet for your liking, but I loooooved it. Decided to call it the Cool Brown Fox. :P

to cut down on your cocoa stirring time you can sift it through your cocktail strainer to remove the lumps! dry mixing it with however much granulated sugar you're going to use helps too :)

I'm surprised this episode didn't include a drink with Mr. Black! You're always using it and I bought it because of this show and its one of my favorite liquors I own.

And now I need to swing by Kakawa in Santa Fe (and yes, you can order online so do it) and get some of their elixirs. Sooo good!

Would've loved to see your take on using Chambord in hot chocolate!

@fabrisseterbrugghe8567 Год назад

I don't know about Greg, but I love either Chambord or Cointreau in my cocoa. Very different flavors, but both will warm my heart.

Made that just last night - !

I think I need to get a bottle of Chambord finally

@movingforwardLDTH Год назад

@@danmoore7600 , I also use it in my family’s chocolate cake & frosting recipes. Cake batter: Add 1 tsp along w/the vanilla extract Frosting: Add 1 - 1.5 tsps along w/vanilla extract When assembling: slowly drizzle onto each cooled cake layer top before frosting. (I never measured it, so do what feels right.) Because I’m anal-retentive and to avoid even the chance of a problem, I always let guests know before serving that I added alcohol. Enjoy! (Now I’m craving this cake!)

I make hot cocoa, but add cayenne and allspice and pumpkin pie spice [I tend to over do it if I use the separate spices] before, boozed with either Toasted Coconut Rum or Misunderstood Ginger Whiskey depending on which flavor I'm looking for. It snowed, so I'll try it with Mezcal later today. Maybe I'll get ambitious and make tsokolate.

Might I recommend John Green's Awesome Coffee Club? I hear it's pretty alright.

For anyone making hot cocoa at home, I do it a ton and have found butter to be an amazing life hack for it lol. Just melt a little butter in the pan first on low, whisk in the cocoa powder, and then add the milk and sugar. It will make it taste a bit richer, but most importantly it’ll make it so that you get no lumps with minimal effort, it’s like how you make a roux first for adding flour to a sauce. A cocoa roux if you will

Nice thanks for this one! Just started it but I hope he mixes hot cocoa with some Frangelico and Irish Creme! 😋

@irissalls4265 Год назад

When I make cafe mocha I throw the cocoa in with the coffee grounds. Works a charm :)

(Sandi) For Mexican chocolaté, I like a mix of chilies - ancho, pequin, and moldovo, and other spices like coriander, nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice. I feel cardamon is more for Indian drinks, like lasse.

Thanks for mentioning nestlé! Unfortunately many don't know about their issues which, even more unfortunately, go beyond slaves.

@louiswemple3940 Год назад

The nestle corporation sure did decide to make human rights violations a check list. And there not the only one.

@GladJack2222 Год назад

The formula debacle is one of their most heinous, IMHO, but that happens when infants start dying.

@Alansaurus Год назад

Nestle trying to keep a good image after, stealing water, having bugs in their infant formula, their infant formula killing children, using slaves, and literally I could keep on going for ages. Makes me respect Greg even more after he mentioned it.

@nightthought2497 Год назад

I always blend the chocolate and cocoa (melted and mixed before adding milk), and always with the darkest bakers chocolate I can find, and I contest that that is still cocoa that simply blends easier.
