• Melt the sugar in order to obtain a clear caramel and deglaze with the preceding mixture.
• Pour over the previously chopped chocolates. Allow the entire mixture to melt for two minutes.
• Emulsify with a whisk by making small concentric circles to obtain a smooth, shiny mixture.
• Pour the ganache at 31°C into a jar.
