”An ambitious, impressive cookbook with a clever premise: Using
easy-to-make ganache as the basis for a range of all kinds of
delicious chocolate desserts. What’s not to love?”
Jeffrey Dryfoos, Publisher “Dessert Professional Magazine”
”I have known Ed as a Chocolatier and now see him as an author.
This, his first book, is an excellent addition to anyone’s kitchen
library. For those who do not make dessert at home, well you are in
for a real treat. Ed makes dessert something that anyone can now
achieve.”
”Tish Boyle, cookbook author and dessert blogger””
”The Choclatique Cookbook” delivers an inspiring collection of
knock-out desserts for chocolate lovers, and it’s also a
fascinating read. Ed Engeron has traveled all over the world in
search of the best chocolate, and the stories of his far-flung
adventures are as engaging as his recipes. For a chocophile, it
doesn’t get much better than this.””Library Journal,” (Maggie
Knapp, Trinity Valley Sch. Lib., Fort Worth, TX)
”Before presenting the recipes, Engoron, an award-winning chef
and cofounder of the premium California chocolate boutique
Choclatique, details the history of chocolate, buying and caring
for chocolate, and using all the senses to appreciate it fully.
(Break the chocolate and listen for the snap. Smell the bar at the
broken point….) All of the recipes call for ganache, which is
relatively simple to prepare but should be made separately a day
beforehand. Some recipes require specialized ingredients or
cookware, which novice cooks may not have on hand. Gluten-free,
dairy-free, and vegan recipes are noted. The finished book will
feature QR codes that link to video demonstrations; a buying guide
for “keen stuff” is included. VERDICT Mouthwatering recipes for
chocolate lovers who are willing to devote an hour or two (or maybe
more) to create a chocolate dessert with maximum wow power.”
