  • Join my online French cooking classes: learn.thefrenchcookingacademy... The Frangipane is an almond filling use in France to make the famous "Galette des rois" ( translated king cake) this simple pastry item is made out of a thick layer of creme Frangipane ( which is in fact an almond cream mixed with pastry cream) sandwiched between 2 layer of pure butter puff pastry.
    In this french baking class you will learn how to make the authentic Frangipane almond cream from scratch as well as how to use it to make a delicious and tasty almond cake.
    WRITTEN RECIPE LINK BELOW:
    bit.ly/2BJI1rJ
    today to make make things easier for home cooking we are going to use some good quality pre-made puff pastry and create a simple rectangular shaped cake that we will be able slice and serve on your christmas table for dessert. However when making this recipe it is vital to make a true Frangipane and not an almond cream (creme d'amande) which many people seems to do nowadays. An authentic Frangipane is made with a pastry cream mixed with almond cream. Only that combination will provide you with the true taste of the cake filling that you may have tasted back in France.

    I just made this again. We bought some beautiful fresh raspberries and placed them on top of the Frangipane/pastry creme, and before placing the top pastry sheet on top, I lightly sprinkled the berries with white sugar. Oh, my goodness. The richness of the Frangipane and tartness of the berries. Thank you, Stephen!

    I love his down to earth approach. I’ve made this and agree with some others who have suggested the addition of almond emotion or extract. Almond buttercream is my favorite filling for just about anything but when you add a layer of raspberry jam (as I did for my wedding cake 30 yrs. ago) it brings the almond filling to an entire new level. Ummm!

    I love the taste of almonds, but ground almonds here don't have a lot of flavor. When I make frangipane, I add a little almond extract. Divine!

    • @sazji
      @sazji 2 роки тому +4

      100% legit! In the US, plain almonds don’t have that “almond flavor” that we are used to, because that comes from bitter almonds. Bitter almonds are the original wild almonds, and they are inedible; actually they are toxic and 16 raw ones can kill a grown man. They cannot legally be sold in the US. In some places they have not been so completely separated genetically, so you still get a hint of that lovely cyanide aroma. :-) In other places, you can actually buy bitter almonds to use instead of almond extract. (A few in a dish won’t hurt you, and the cyanide itself cooks out.) Mahlab is a similar spice, which is the kernel of a kind of wild cherry seeds. It’s perfectly legal here, probably because nobody is tempted to eat it raw, but it’s actually just as toxic.

  • @Oroborus88
    @Oroborus88 5 років тому +32

    I've tried making frangipane several times but never had the same strong almond taste that the galettes des rois I buy at the boulangerie have. Later I tried switching the vanilla extract for bitter almond extract and it was the exact taste from the boulangerie that I was seeking !

    • @Yoganature101
      @Yoganature101 4 роки тому +6

      Oroborus do you grind your own almonds? I’m sure that would ensure the strongest flavor. Also in America almonds are destroyed through pasteurization. The food controllers know nothing about food prep, only profits!

    • @gerardjones7881
      @gerardjones7881 3 роки тому +6

      bakeries use almond paste, not almond flour.
      Almond Paste contains bitter almond oil, it has a stronger almond flavor.

    • @sazji
      @sazji 2 роки тому

      @@Yoganature101 That almond flavor from almond extract isn’t from regular almonds, it’s from bitter almonds, which contain cyanogens that activate when wet. That wonderful aroma is actually cyanide, which is why bitter almonds aren’t allowed to be sold in the US. (Sixteen bitter almonds could kill an adult man but I’d challenge anyone to eat even one!)

I think I’ll make this with hazelnut meal and see how it turns out. Thank you for sharing your delight in cooking… I look forward to making a giant ravioli soon, too.

    Thank you for this instruction video.
    At one time I spread the cream too close to the edge. I saved it by spreading it right to and then roll up the pastry. Cut 1-cm (0.033 foot) thick slices and baked them laying flat.
    Beautiful spirals came out. The overall flakiness and the bit caramelization of the frangipane was devine.

    My wife is half French. It's funny how she uses all these small French things like: "Hm..?", "Boum", "Et...voila" "Et... paf" when she is explaining something about cooking. After more than thirty years of marriage I realize I use them all even I am 100% Pole.
    Damn, maybe now I am 98% Pole ;) Never mind - Vive La France!

    Hello! I've watched a few of your videos dealing with pastry cream and I have a tip I picked up from Lucas Sin making his steamed eggs. At the step where you whisk the hot milk into the eggs, you can pass the milk through a mesh sieve and it will catch most of not all of the foam (as well as any ropey pericarp if it's the whole egg). I've used this to great effect for very smooth and glassy creme brulees.
