Making the perfect ganache | Pastry 101 Tips & Tricks

[@AdamQWright]

I'm glad you split it up into categories. Too many YTers don't explain what they use their sauce is for.

[@HanbitCho]

thanks

[@kristakrimitza1824]

You are really an ALCHEMIST. .thank you for the pastry lessons.. especially for the written info. Very helpful.

[@HanbitCho]

thanks.

[@helenlangvold3617]

I have whipped ganache in the past but never adjusting the ratio fir a heavier whipped cream texture. Chocolate cake, cupcake or petit fores. Cake take ganache and whip it. Top the cake that had been in freezer fur a short time not make frosting easier. Make a bee ganache using 1x1 ratio. Cover cake or dip cupcakes in demi cooled ganache. Petit Fores i layer with whipped ganache then take two forks and dip fully in barely cooled ganache. Like with cupcakes info not want it so warm as to melt the whipped layer. Back in freezer . Take out little 1 x 1. Or bring out when serving. Freezes well for short period. Love this tutorial. Fabulous. Learning new techniques. Winter keep ganache in hand. Add warmed milk for a decadent sipping chocolate. Very European. Fan favorite

[@HanbitCho]

Cool

[@paullukens7154]

👍👍 Finally. You are the only KZbin Ganache teacher who has gotten it right! A "ratio" must use the same measurement (units) for ALL of the items. You've explained that all measurements are "by weight". The other videos I've seen have "cups" (volume) for one item and "grams" (weight)(etc) for the other. These are not 'ratios'. You've gotten a new subscriber! Thanks!! 👍👍

[@HanbitCho]

Thanks and welcome

[@zuzu.fonseca]

Loved how you explained the different kinds of ganache, you’ve made it so easy to understand! Congratulations for the lovely job!

[@HanbitCho]

My pleasure 😊

[@GaZZuM]

I would never have thought I would be capable of making something like a ganache, but you made it so simple and easy to understand that I can't wait to try it for myself! Thank you for the video!

[@HanbitCho]

My pleasure 😊

Such an underrated channel! Love the way you explain the technicalities. Thank you for your content!

Glad you enjoy it!

Whipped ganache! I never knew! This is the best tutorial I’ve seen on making ganache successfully. Thank you! ❤️ I’m going to go make some whipped ganache now.🤗🤗

[@HanbitCho]

You are so welcome!

[@marijaspajic7418]

That is whipped cream and melted chocolate 🥧🥧🥧👌👌👌

[@Miss.G]

Thank you Chef! I recently changed to a Belgian Dark Chocolate brand, and After several experiments .. I now use 1:1.3 ratio as the Higher Cocoa Butter in the Chocolate makes for a more solid ganache if using 1:1 Please when you’re able to, it would be great if you could do a video about tempering chocolate and also how the Cocoa butter content will affect the final products, wether it’s ganache or truffles or anything else it’s used for.. Thank you so much 😊

[@HanbitCho]

Wonderful!

[@lowbvll8969]

What song is at 4:40 ??

[@azmanaziz2747]

Will the 1:1ganache still be shiny after taken out the next days

[@Miss.G]

@@azmanaziz2747ganache is never shiny once it’s used to frost… Here are 2 things that I do. 1- After frosting the cake with Ganache, I Glaze the cake by meting the ganache , till it’s (not too runny, but also can’t be used to frost) I then add store bought chocolate syrup. Eg: in a 1/4 cup of melted ganache I would add. Approx 1 tbs of syrup.. mix and pour onto cake for a smooth shine. 2- I usually also let this set in fridge.. so just before serving.. I give the cake a quick heat with a blow torch.. and it adds an instant shine. That will last for quite a while. You can always skip step 1 and just do step 2 for a shiny cake. Hope that helps.

[@aouichaabdou16]

The most amazing teacher I have ever seen. Thank you for all you do for our education.

Watching you really motivates me to get into baking more😸💕, I always viewed baking as intimidating but i really wanna learn the proper techniques behind it to hopefully succeed more! 😊

[@HanbitCho]

Go for it!

[@georginashanti4605]

Thank you! Your tips are invaluable. I'm learning so much. Thank you again. It's like having an extremely knowledgeable Zoom teacher. Thank you for sharing your expertise on KZbin.

[@HanbitCho]

You are so welcome!

[@stevepolychronopoulis]

Just made mine (German chocolate, went heavy on the cream, about 1.5:1 ratio). It's in the fridge, 11:20 PM on Christmas Eve - putting it on a cherry pie tomorrow. Turned out to be a hit last year, but the ganache was a little more dense than I was hoping for. Hopefully this is an improvement - thanks for the tips!

[@HanbitCho]

nice!

[@surayashaik3807]

Any chance you doing the chocolate cake?

[@patiencebalisanyuka3837]

​@@HanbitChohi chef can I use whipped cream instead of heavy cream while making ganache

[@michaelamarasigan8728]

chef, i followed your video and did the 1:1 ratio. My ganache turned out smooth and shiny! Very delicious! Thank you!!

[@HanbitCho]

Great job!

[@TechTails]

Hi Hanbit Longtime watcher here. I love how you make pastry approachable without ignoring technicals. Just one thing if I can add when it comes to ganache - and maybe you can clarify why it wasn't mentioned - but often the biggest failure of ganache is what type of chocolate you use. You mentioned couverture but not the actual types. I know when I followed the common ratio explanation of ganache with milk chocolate - ended in disaster. For me a 2:1 ratio makes a 1:1 like your video. This is naturally as you know probably due to lower cocoa content in milk chocolate. I believe this crucial thing was forgotten in your video as it is in many others. I found myself always failing ganache attempts because of this. Just to let you know maybe you can update description and put a see description in the video tag so people don't fail attempting what you did with milk or white chocolate. Thank you for mentioning ganache montee in French and excellent video as always

[@HanbitCho]

hello!!!! thanks.

[@gerierealista4880]

Thank you very much for your tutorial… I’m so glad I have found your channel… making one now and will whip it tomorrow…many, many thanks again

[@HanbitCho]

thanks

[@Land_of_Oz]

Thanks Hanbit, I love how you specified the temperature! My ganache often breakdown and became grainy. Will try your method soon :)

[@HanbitCho]

Sounds great!

[@natlions]

To recover the grainy ganache, simply warm it slightly up to 34 C and stir until the texture recovers or, add very little of warmed milk, starting with few drops at the time (not cream) stirring until all incorporated.

[@sandrastockley1835]

Fantastic thanks after watching over 80 ganache videos. Yours was the one that made sense and not too complicated. Definitely subscribing and will watch all your videos x

[@HanbitCho]

[@samuelfan3503]

I didn’t know there were different types of ganache!! The whipped ganache really surprised me! I wonder if it will melt slowly as well, like the plain whipped cream, at low temperature/room temperature.

[@HanbitCho]

in the fridge it won't melt!

[@ryanbent9368]

You're breakdowns of each one helped solidify my understanding. I'm glad your videos showed up in my feed. Subscribed!

[@HanbitCho]

thanks!

[@ando1135]

would love to see a cake made using all 3 different ganache consistencies. for a pipeable ganache, what ratio do you recommend and should it incorporate butter? id like to make a nice smooth, glossy, pipeable ganache :)

[@HanbitCho]

ok!

[@prernabellani3596]

You have explained every detail about the ganache clearly. Many thanks

[@HanbitCho]

My pleasure 😊

[@Noodles2487]

This is a fantastic tutorial! Thanks for that...I was wondering which ratio is best for a drip on cakes?

[@HanbitCho]

oh I usually use 1:1.

[@anele273]

Nobody works harder than Hanbit!

[@HanbitCho]

lol yeah I work hard.

[@arwa8306]

Thank you chef hanbit! That’s amazing i’ve been waiting. What do you think about just heating the cream and pouring it into the soild chocolate if it is in a ratio 1:1 thank you again 🤍

[@HanbitCho]

if it melts then yeah why not - but there's not much heavy cream to melt the chocolate so I wouldn't...

[@lilytan9317]

I always use ganache montee in cakes or even mousse cake, it taste so gud, rich, creamy, 20-30% of the cream used as the amount of chocolate . I fell like adding inverted sugar into the ganache makes it more shinier when whipped .

[@HanbitCho]

yeah well done! i love ganache montee.

[@pinkblossom1234]

Most appropriate video for ganash making...thank you so much chef ...

[@clearmind3022]

@@HanbitCho seriously. Most KZbin channels that have recipes on KZbin or personal recipes that people have altered themselves no originals. They teach you the way they do it not the way it was designed originally. Chefs should teach students the basics provide a foundational corner stone for them to build and expand a pond not give them a pre-built house designed for someone else. Cooking is a science and an art. Recipes must be thoroughly explained clearly with logic and energy. Most of the skills in these videos are only available if a person attends culinary school and pays at least $45,000 a year! It is absolutely ridiculous, KZbin channels that show you how to make pepperoni pizza, lasagna with fake pasta and store-bought ingredients acquiring millions of subscribers and channels that are actually intellectually thawed out, seem to be forgotten and slip underneath the algorithms.

[@davidfell5496]

One of the most powerful ideas in cooking is expressing recipes in ratios. As you have done here most excellently. (If serious cooking and the idea of ratios etc interests you, I encourage you to try the book Ratios by Michael Rhulman. You will never look at recipes the same again!)

[@HanbitCho]

Thanks a lot

[@GregCurtin45]

Appreciate the explanation and subtle differences but I wish you had taken it further and explain the use of each. For example, is the whipped chocolate cream good for filling a layered cake or only for icing the outside of the cake? Which one is best for truffles? What are the best uses of each ganache?
