Chocolate and hazelnut truffles

Toasting and skinning the hazelnuts yourself takes ten minutes and is the entire difference — ready-ground hazelnut tastes of paper.

Method

6 steps · 150 minutes

  1. Roast the hazelnuts at 350F for 10 minutes, then rub them together in a kitchen towel while they are still hot. Most of the skins come off, and chasing the last of them is not worth the time.
  2. Chop them roughly rather than grinding them. The point is to find them.
  3. Bring the cream just to the point where it shivers at the edges, pour it over the chopped chocolate, and wait a full minute before you stir.
  4. Stir from the center outwards until it comes together glossy, then beat in the butter and the salt.
  5. Fold the nuts through and chill for two hours, until it is firm enough to roll but not hard.
  6. Roll them with cold hands and turn them in the cocoa. Warm hands melt the mixture before it is round.
