Bittersweet Chocolate Ganache Glaze. It will take longer to read this recipe than to make it, but its success is all about the quality and taste of the chocolate and following the details in the recipe. As long as you stay within the percentages listed, any premium quality chocolate you enjoy eating is the one to use. The important part is to chop the chocolate very fine and to strain the hot milk. Allowing the chocolate to melt into the milk for the full 4 minutes is not optional. And stir only until the chocolate and milk are emulsifiedthat is, glossy and smooth. Over mixing may turn your silken ganache gritty. If the chocolate has not completely melted after the ganache is mixed, bring the water in the saucepan on the stove to a simmer and turn off the heat. Place the bowl of ganache on the saucepan for a few minutes, then stir very gently until chocolate has melted and the ganache is smooth. Makes about 2 cups. Tablespoons organic granulated sugar. Pinch fine sea salt. Add the chocolate to a heatproof bowl and set aside while you heat the milk. Pour the milk into a small saucepan. Add the sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat, whisking a few times to a low boil. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat. Pour the hot milk over the chopped chocolate all at once. Rotate the bowl so the chocolate is completely submerged. Cover the bowl with a plate and let stand undisturbed for 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and olive oil if using and whisk from the center out only until smooth and glossy. Keep the bowl of ganache at room temperature while you test the final consistency. Dip a teaspoon into the ganache, set the coated spoon on a small plate, and refrigerate for 1. After chilling, the ganache on the spoon should be smooth and should still taste creamy. It is unlikely, but if the glaze is too firm, add a tablespoon of room temperature milk, and repeat the test. Add a second tablespoon if needed. Pass the ganache through a strainer into a bowl. Whisking slowly will speed the process. Allow the ganache to thicken at room temperature for 1. Stir a few times from the outside into the center before glazing. Keeping The glaze can be refrigerated in a tightly closed container for up to five days and frozen for up to one month. The glaze hardens when it is cold and will need to be reheated.
