Pecan Praliné Crémeux
155g whole milk
9g gelatin
1090g PRALINE PECAN 50% FRUITE 2KG
545g whipping cream 35% fat
Heat the milk and add the rehydrated gelatin. Pour a little of this mixture onto the praliné. The mixture will split. Emulsify in a freestanding mixer with a paddle attachment. Stabilize this emulsion by gradually adding the cold cream until the texture is elastic and glossy, signifying the emulsification process is underway. Blend to perfect the emulsion. Use immediately or leave to set in the refrigerator.

Peel and cube the apples, and place them in a bowl with the maple syrup and lemon zests. Tightly cover the bowl with food wrap and place in the microwave on full power for 4-5 minutes. When the apples are cooked, blend and then pour into a saucepan. Add the sugar/pectin mixture and boil for a few minutes and remove from the heat. Once cool, add the brunoise of Granny Smith and set aside.
