Chocolate Millefeuilles with Candied Figs, Walnuts and Pink Salt

Ingredients

  • 250 g dark chocolate 70%
  • 500 ml whipping cream
  • A jar of Fichi Caramellati Babbi
  • 100 g shelled walnuts
  • Q.s. pink salt

Preparation

For the melt chocolate:

  • Chop the chocolate.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, put 2/3 of the chocolate, cook at 800 W for one minute.
  • Remove from the microwave and use a silicone spatula to mix well. The chocolate will not have melted fully (it must reach 50°C).
  • Return to the microwave for 5 seconds, remove and mix. (If it still has not melted return to the microwave for another 5 seconds always at 800W).
  • Pour in the remaining chocolate to be melted and mix well until glossy.
  • Wait for the chocolate to have melted at a temperature of 30-31°C.


For the millefeuilles:

  • Once the chocolate has reached the correct temperature to be worked, spread as thinly as possible onto a sheet of oven paper, then on the surface sprinkle some granules of pink salts and the roughly ground walnuts.
  • Place the sheets in the fridge to allow the chocolate to set.  Whip the cream, cut Fichi Caramellati Babbi into pieces.


For assembly:

  • Cut the chocolate into rectangles 6/7 cm x 12/cm, then add a layer of cream, pieces of fichi caramellati and again a layer of chocolate.
  • Continue for two or three layers and finish with a sheet of chocolate onto which will be added a garnish of fig pieces and a little caramel applied with a paintbrush.
  • Allow the dessert to rest in the fridge and place in the freezer.
