  • Antonio Bachour’s chocolate caramel tart: ingredient amounts and assembly

    Posted by Shirley Saban on November 16, 2024 at 17:40

    Hello,
    (1) According to my experience the amounts listed fort the sable dough should be sufficient for about 2X24cm rings, and not 3X6cm as instructed. What about the rest of the recipe? is it it for 3X6cm (doesn’t seem so to me)? or in the same proportion as the sable dough?
    (2) Please note the method in the film is different than the method in the pdf. In the pdf all layers are prepared in advance then assembled, in the film – one at a time. Also – the caramel is a layer in the film but in a cavity in the pdf. which should I follow? it is confusing..
    Thank you for clarifying this!

    Hi Shirley.

    Hello, welcome to the Scoolinary community, and thank you for your questions.

    Regarding the amount of sablé dough and caramel, I have forwarded these questions to the content team so they can review the material.

    I’m not entirely sure I understand your second question about the “layers,” but if you’re referring to how the video shows the preparations step by step and then shows them already ready for assembling the desserts, it’s because preparing multiple recipes takes a lot of recording time. That’s why a mise en place is done beforehand to streamline the process and then show the steps and the final product.

    In the written recipes, you can read the step-by-step instructions along with the time each step takes.

    I’ll get back to you as soon as I have news from the content team.

    Best regards.

            Hi Shirley.

            We have an update! The content team has informed me of the following:

            “The amount of sablé dough is enough for three large entremets or 12 individual tartlets.

            Regarding the video and PDF methodologies, both are valid and designed to offer flexibility based on your preferences and working style.

            The approach shown in the video, where the layers are prepared one by one, is ideal if you prefer to go step by step, ensuring that each element is perfectly adjusted during assembly.

            On the other hand, the method described in the PDF, where all the layers are prepared in advance, is perfect if you want to optimize your time or work ahead, especially for larger projects or events.”

            We hope this information is helpful, and we sincerely apologize for the time it took to address your question.

            Best regards.
