My Grandmother makes these occassionally, but in large numbers. She uses regular salted butter to brush the ramekins, so there is a hint of saltiness on the crust. Needless to say, it tastes fantastic, and I usually need a second or third serving. P.s: I finally made a perfect poached egg today, thanks for the tip ;)

Looks good but -Looks dry. Not enough liquid centre/mascarpone, ice cream definitely a better pairing - isn’t liquid enough for the first bite.
@cet9374 3 жыл бұрын
@@ChefJackOvens looks good, just think it’s external texture looks too dry and spongey, sauce also sticks to the sponge instead of splurging out = ice cream better pairing. Best lava cakes are always thick, wetter and stodgy and fall apart when the externals are breached - I guess what I’m saying is the best lava cakes tend to be more “puddingy” But I’m sure it’s up to preference just I’ve realised that’s what tends to go down better, from personal experience and watching others. Looks good though!
@ChefJackOvens 3 жыл бұрын
Appreciate your honest opinion. Like you said it’s about personal preference. The way I do mine is an even amount cake/pudding to liquid centre. Too many other versions of this like you said have a lot more filling but that makes the final product sink and collapse, not holding its shape. It also becomes soggy and a wet mess. The ratios between the dry to wet in this recipe are perfectly balanced with a 60/40 wet to dry.
