Trebuie sa recunosc ca de cand am facut prima data beurre noisette, continuu sa-l fac in mod constant, gasindu-i diverse utilizari in retete. Insa gustul lui usor caramelizat se potriveste cu atatea alte ingrediente, incat e greu sa-l ignori, mai ales cand el, de sine statator, e atat de delicios! De aceasta data l-am adaugat intr-un aluat de cupcakes cu morcov, combindandu-l cu portocale, scortisoara si cardamom, condimente a caror substrat merge de minune cu aroma subtila a acestui unt caramelizat.

Tehnica in sine a usoara si partea buna e ca puteti face cantitate mai mare o data si pastra in frigider intr-un borcan exact ca pe orice alt unt. Incepeti prin a topi untul, orice cantitate, intr-un vas pus pe foc mic spre mediu. Pe masura ce se topeste veti observa ca pe fundul vasului incep sa se adune niste resturi, un lichid albicios, ceea ce e normal, untul nu e grasime pura ci mai contine si lapte sau apa. Daca va opriti in acest punct si decantati untul, obtineti unt clarifiat. Insa haideti sa mergem un pas mai departe! Continuati sa gatiti untul – la inceput va fierbe deoarece contine si alte lichide cum spuneam mai sus, dar pe masura ce acestea se evapora, incepe sa sfaraie si sa devina auriu. In momentul in care resturile din unt devin aurii si mirosul de unt e puternic, aducand usor cu alunele de padure, luati de pe foc. Aveti grija caci in acest punct se arde foarte repede! Lasati cateva minute sa se raceasca apoi folositi in reteta.

ENGLISH

I admit it – I’m in love with brown butter. After using it for the first time in these cookies, I just fell in love with its fragrance and taste and the aroma it adds to baked goods. Also known as beurre noisette, brown butter is not a hard thing to cook – what’s hard is resisting the urge of dipping some bread in it (I’m a „love butter” kind of girl). The roasty, nutty flavor brown butter brings to desserts is well worth the messy stove! The technique itself is pretty straight-forward: heat the butter in a saucepan placed over low to medium heat. As the butter melts, you will notice the milk solids at the bottom of the pan – they are white-ish and liquidy. At this point, if you stop and drain out the clear butter, you get clarified butter. But let’s take it one step further! Keep cooking the butter until the milk solids begin to look golden brown and the butter itself looks clean and golden as well. Keep an eye on it as at this point, since there’s no liquid left in the butter to cook out, the fat tends to burn easily. Another way to know it’s done is to breathe in its distinctive nutty, buttery aroma. At this point, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to rest for 10 minutes then pour it in a desired container or use it in your recipe.

As for the flavors I chose for these cupcakes, here they are: carrots and cinnamon, walnuts and coconut, orange and brown butter and in the batter. The cherry on top is the white chocolate buttercream – this silky goodness was just perfect for this particular flavor combo, although a cream cheese buttercream would work just as good!

  1. Arata foarte bine,interesanta combinatia plus aroma de beurre noisette,o sa incerc reteta dar cu o cantitate mai mica de zahar (pare cam mult in cupcakes) avand in vedere ca si morcovul(prin coacere) este un pic dulce
