sesame entremets recipe

1. SWEET SESAME PASTRY

Ingredients

200 g butter
135 g icing sugar
45 g ground almonds
65 g whole eggs
3 g Guérande sea salt
330 g flour type 55
90 g bread flour
145 g black sesame seeds
145 g white sesame seeds
Total weight: 1158 g

Step

Use the paddle attachment to mix the butter, icing sugar and
ground almonds. Add the whole eggs, then the sea salt, the
two types of flour and finally the sesame seeds, lightly crushed
with a rolling pin. Knead lightly, then refrigerate the dough
for around 1 hour before use. Using a rolling machine, roll the
pastry out to a thickness of 7 mm and a size of 60 cm by 40 cm.
Leave to rest in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes, then
bake in a convection oven at 160°C for around 20 minutes. Set
aside for assembly.

2. MATCHA DACQUOISE BISCUIT

Ingredients

250 g egg whites
100 g caster sugar
180 g ground almonds
60 g ground hazelnuts
200 g icing sugar
20 g Matcha powder
Total weight: 810 g

Step

Use the whisk attachment to whip the egg whites into peaks,
slowly adding the caster sugar to create meringue. Use a rubber
spatula to fold in the sifted mixture of ground almonds and
hazelnuts, icing sugar and Matcha powder. Spread the biscuit
out on a Silpat® mat in a 60 cm by 40 cm frame on a baking
sheet and bake in a convection oven at 180°C for around
18 minutes. Set aside for assembly.

3. SESAME CREAM

Ingredients

650 g whipping cream
700 g caster sugar
80 g honey
700 g black sesame paste
115 g Rémy Martin® cognac 50%
154 g gelatine
(22 g of 22 bloom gelatine powder and 132 g water)
Total weight: 2399 g

Step

Without heating, mix the whipping cream, caster sugar and
honey, then pour the mixture over the sesame paste and Rémy
Martin® cognac before adding the dissolved gelatine. Set aside
for assembly.

4. WHITE CHOCOLATE CREAM

Ingredients

250 g whipping cream (35% fat)
250 g full fat milk
100 g egg yolks
1 kg white chocolate
77 g gelatine
(11 g of 200 bloom gelatine powder and 66 g water)
900 g whipped cream
Total weight: 2577 g

Step

In a saucepan, cook the whipping cream, milk and egg yolks
together at 85°C (as you would for custard). Pour the cooked
mixture over the chopped white chocolate to create a ganache
at 40°C. Add the dissolved gelatine and, lastly, the whipped
cream. Set aside for assembly.

5. MATCHA MACAROON DECORATION

Ingredients

135 g white almonds
190 g icing sugar
10 g Matcha powder
12 g egg whites
100 g egg whites
30 g caster sugar
1 g powdered egg whites
Total weight: 478 g

Step

Use a food processor to combine the white almonds, icing
sugar and Matcha powder, and pour the resulting mixture into
a stainless steel bowl. Use the whisk attachment to whip the
100 g of egg whites into stiff peaks with the caster sugar and
powdered egg whites. Add the 12 g of egg whites to the dry
mixture, then add the whipped egg whites. Work the mixture
until it is smooth using a rubber spatula. Then, using a piping
bag fitted with an 8 mm tip, pipe macaroons onto a baking sheet
lined with a Silpat® mat. Place this sheet on top of another one
and bake in a convection oven at 160°C for around 14 minutes.
Set aside for the assembly and finishing stage.

6. IVORY CHOCOLATE SPRAY

Ingredients

200 g of ivory chocolate
100 g cocoa butter
Total weight: 300 g

Step

Melt the ivory chocolate and cocoa butter in the microwave.

7. ASSEMBLY AND FINISHING

Ingredients

No ingredients.

Step

Place the cooked sweet sesame pastry in the base of a 60 cm by
40 cm by 3.5 cm frame and cover with the sesame cream. Leave
to set in the freezer. Once set, add a layer of about 1 cm
of white chocolate cream, set the Matcha dacquoise biscuit on
top and smooth the rest of the white chocolate cream across
the biscuit so it is flush with the top of the frame. Place them
in the deep freezer. Spray the top with the ivory chocolate
preparation using a spray gun, then cut the dessert into portions
of the desired size. Decorate the tops with Matcha macaroons,
and sprinkle a mixture of sea salt and black and white sesame
seeds around them.
