WINE NOTES
Maury le Preceptorie: Maury is an appellation in Southern France in the Roussillon region that is known for its sweet fortified, vin doux naturel, port-style wines, made primarily from the Grenache grape. Notice flavors of coffee, mocha, chestnut and tea.

Vietnamese Coffee: Made with a filter that sits on top of the cup. Typically a Dark French roast, sometimes with chicory (which was first added as an extender, but stayed in because of its complex bitter chocolate flavor), and sweetened condensed milk. Great hot or iced.
 

 

Chocolate Mousse
Master

Makes about 6 cups

  • 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely cut
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided and softened
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Prepare a double-boiler: place a large heat-proof bowl over pan, being sure water does not touch bowl, and add chocolate and butter to bowl. Once chocolate is completely melted, stir in the butter one piece at a time until fully incorporated. Keep scraping bowl with a rubber spatula so chocolate does not scorch. Remove bowl from pan and set aside. In same double-boiler: Place large heat-proof bowl and whisk together yolks, coffee and vanilla. While whisking, slowly add in sugar and whisk until thick. Pour mixture into a stand mixer and whisk until cool. Meanwhile, in another kitchen aid or by hand in a chilled bowl, lift the cream into soft peaks. Fold cream into cooled cooked eggs and cooled chocolate. Use for the below applications as it will set when cooled. Store in fridge.
