Working Method

Brioche

  • Mix all the ingredients (except the Mimetic Incorporation) in a mixing bowl with a hook for 5 min. at low speed.
  • Increase the speed and incorporate the Mimetic Incorporation little by little.
  • Stop the mixer when the dough has enough elasticity and becomes shiny.
  • Give the dough a 30 min. bulk proof at ambient temperature.
  • Scale at 185 g for a disk of diameter 10 cm and height 12 cm.
  • Proof for ± 1½ hours at 30°C with 85% humidity.
  • Bake in a convection oven at 180°C for ± 20 min.

Tips:

  • For a better result, use a one-day old stale brioche.
  • You can use any kind of stale “rich and sweet bread” such as panettone, croissants, soft buns,…

Hazelnut Filling

  • Laminate the Carat Nuxel Hazelnut in between two sheets of baking paper at 4 mm.
  • Freeze to be able to cut some disks with a 0,5 cm smaller diameter than the disk of the brioche (9,5 cm).

Almond Cream

  • Cream the sugar and butter in a mixer with a paddle attachment.
  • Add the eggs.
  • Add the Amandes Rapées and CPT.
  • Mix at medium speed for 3 min.
  • Laminate the cream in between two sheets of baking paper at 4 mm.
  • Freeze to be able to cut some disks with a 0,5 cm smaller diameter than the disc of the brioche (9,5 cm).

Tip: If CPT is not available it can be replaced by potato or corn starch.

Syrup

  • Clean and peel the orange and lemon.
  • Bring the orange and lemon peel and all other ingredients to a boil in a saucepan.
  • Cool down to 50°C and soak the brioche

Build-up

  • Cut the brioche into two disks, each 2 cm thick and 10 cm in diameter.
  • Slightly soak each disk with the syrup.
  • Apply a disk of Carat Nuxel Hazelnut in between two disks of slightly soaked brioche.
  • Top off with a disk of almond cream.
  • Sprinkle some roasted hazelnuts on top.
  • Bake in deck oven at 180°C till a golden color is obtained
