Adventures with Chocolate by Paul A Young

[lapin d'or]

This book from Paul A Young came out in the UK last year but I have only just purchased a copy and wonder if anyone else is using it.

The book has some really wonderful flavour combinations and is written to inspire home cooks so no great emphasis on equipment. Many of the recipes are for ganaches but there are savoury and dessert ones in there too. Some really good notes on chocolate flavours and pairing them imaginatively.

Some odd ones like Marmite ganache that I will not be trying but others like goats cheese and lemon that I think I will.

I am also keen to try the caramel,milk chocolate and Glenmorangie whiskey sauce and the lemon thyme caramel sauce.

Will post back when I have some pictures to show.

Just got a copy myself after looking at a friends copy a few weeks back. Very interesting flavour combinations - looking forward to having a bit of time to go through it carefully.
