20 h. ago Notes on chocolate: more Easter eggs, because these are quite special

Sometimes you just want to splash out on something a little more luxuriousI really think this has to be my last column on Easter eggs, don’t you? One egg had sat on my sideboard for a few weeks. I didn’t hold out much hope for it, but it was wolfed down in two sittings (not just by me) with a strong recommend from my testers to ‘write how good it is’, so here you go: Coco Chemistry’s Large Milk Honeycomb Crunch egg, £25. (A dark chocolate version is also available.) This is not a craft-chocolate egg by any stretch, but maybe that’s not what people need all the time.Melt has two cute eggs, one is just milk and in very simple packaging with a cardboard bunny cut out. The idea is that you paint it and it comes in two sizes, from £14.50.

1 week ago How can I use up surplus egg whites without making meringues? | Kitchen aide

There’s no excuse for ditching excess egg whites. Use them up in macarons and fritters, to marinate fish and meat, or just in a pisco sourGot a culinary dilemma? Email feast@theguardian.comWhat can I do with leftover egg whites? And don’t say meringues! Billowy meringues may be the most high-profile pal of surplus egg whites, but their circle is far wider and more encompassing than those delicate shells. “My immediate thought is chocolate mousse,” says Oliver Costello, co-owner of Toad Bakery in south London. “White chocolate is quite good here, because the egg whites take its richness down. If you’ve ever had a pot of Milkybar yoghurt dessert, it’s a bit like that.” It couldn’t be simpler to make, either: “Melt white chocolate in a bain-marie or in bursts in the microwave, and whip some cream to stiff peaks in a separate bowl. Fold the melted chocolate into the cream, then whisk egg whites to stiff peaks and fold those in, too.” Chill for three hours, then grab a spoon and dig in, ...
