How to Temper by Hand by Means of Tabliering

Filed under: Arts, Doing Business, Eating Out — admin @ 8:14 am

Tempering of tantalizing chocolates can be done manually or by using a tempering machine. Many chocolatiers prefer the latter because it relieves them of the tedium of maintaining accurate temperatures. Tempering machines are automated and have a microprocessor that does this job easily and also keep the chocolate tempered for a longer duration. But in tempering by hand, maintaining accurate temperatures needs patience and precision.

Recession or no recession, the billion-dollar chocolate industry continues to grow, particularly that segment that prefer fine, handmade chocolates. Artisan-chocolatiers eschew the use of chocolate tempering machines and still choose to make chocolates manually to cater to these chocolate lovers, using “tabliering” for tempering.

It is in France that tabliering was perfected and in this technique, you work upon and cool the chocolate on a marble slab or any other heat-absorbing surface.

Moisture is a great risk to tabliering and you will do well by keeping your cooking paraphernalia and everything else dry. Moisture may cause “seizing” and the chocolate becomes lumpy and can no longer be dipped and molded. Seizing is caused too if you freeze or over-heat the chocolate rapidly.

As a first step, cut 1 pound of chocolate into small strips. Utensils like a serrated knife, a chopping board, a spatula, a mixing bowl, a double boiler, a thermometer that can measure low temperatures like 82F, and a cookie sheet are pat dried with a paper towel and kept ready.
In the upper pan of the double boiler, you keep the chocolate strips and in the lower pan, you boil the water at medium heat till it reaches 108-115F, the melting point of chocolate. You should be stirring the chocolate from start to finish. Remember that every type of chocolate has its own melting point. The melted chocolate or the mush is then transferred to a mixing bowl, guarding against moisture. The melted chocolate must not be lumpy and should have a smooth flow.

Work on the first 2/3 of this melted chocolate on a marble slab using a spatula. It should be subjected to spreading, folding, and scraping to cool it to a temperature of 80-82F. You should ensure the 1/3 of the chocolate maintains its temperature of 100F.

After you finish working upon the 2/3 portion, you slowly integrate the 1/3 and the entire chocolate is again worked upon to cool to 80-82F, then reheat. When you do reheating, you should remember to reheat dark chocolate to 88-90F, semi-sweet chocolate to 86-88F and milk chocolate to 82-84F. If the chocolate has become a hard and shiny shell around the spatula after drying for five minutes, know that tempering is over. You can do dipping and molding after this.

Even a small deviation in specific temperatures may force you to repeat tempering. To make the chocolate stay tempered a longer while, let it rest on a bain-marie or hot pad, still taking care against moisture.

Through the Ages

Filed under: Arts, Recreation Hall — admin @ 3:44 am

It is quite interesting what you can learn from a period based on its art work. Take for instance the ancient Greek pottery. Being that far less of their art work actually exists, what we know about the ancient greeks is mainly derived through the pottery work that has been discovered. Clearly through the ages you can see their different traditions that were going on in the times. The pottery reflects these changes and instead of reading from a book or trying to decipher paintings, all the traditions are laid out on different pieces of pottery created over the centuries.

I find it very interesting that the artists of the day in Ancient Greek pottery use to sign their work. So does that mean that all the pottery makers of the time were rich or of the upper class? I can see how the work that had more words on it would depict work made from definitely the elite who knew how to read and write but if the majority of the pieces of the times had a signature does that mean all of these craftsmen were educated? Or did everyone know how to sign their name but beyond that is where the classes broke out?

Death & the Supernatural: Poetry/Five Poems

Filed under: Arts — admin @ 11:53 am

Supernatural Poetry

Here are five poems,what I calldeath and supernatural poems. Perhaps a bit bizarre, a few stanzas may be, but with unfailing subtlety of course, and a ting of acuteness, but we have to hag on if we want a good ride:

1.

Evil’s Creation

Thou knowith evil clings
To tender peace;
Nor does it heed one’s drowsy
Un-enthralled grief…

But softly it darkens
Twilight’s dunes;
With sprinkling shadows
Straight from the moon.

O Night! Who giveth birth…
To Evils plight?
As mighty murmurs
Reached my breast…:

“His name has no beginning
And no end…!”

But why…! O why?
Everlasting King,
Have you created…!
Such a thing?

As mighty murmurs
Reached my breast…:
“To see, whom you love
The very best!…”

2.

The First Depth

Struggling against unrestful skies
The warlords of eternal darkness
unseen to life’s obvious eyes
Ebb and seek the prize, dominion!

‘The First depth,’ the silence of the deep
Eternal legions with unrestful eyes
The Abysses storm, uncircumcised
The colossal ramparts now untied

‘The First Depth,’ with rival skies
Here, gathers demonic and divine
Now with storms, once hidden beyond
Armies of defense, build their saga

And I saw dreadful swords like suns
Thunder and lightening by Orion
This was the tidings of cosmic doom
If only man could have seen the gloom.

And the echoes I heard from the stars
Unnamed, immortal flames cast down
Gathered on earth for the final countdown
Armageddon’s titanic onset!…

#610 [4/2/04]

3.

Satan’s Daisies

Walk slowly, he is near
Above the clouds;
Talk softly, he can hear
Our venom mouths!

With his dark charcoal horns
And plotted lust,
He that was once fair
Is after us!

#612 [4/3/05]

4.

The Iron Raven

“You cannot escape, debased death
(Says the axiomatic, Iron Raven,
Who delivers the dead)
My imperishable Icons…!
Die, you shall, exhumed someday.”
Fame is no exception, to the Raven,
He seals fate, in ignoble ways!

#611 [4/3/05]

5.

The Marble Tomb

‘Twill be the same, the same
(I told him, when he was living),
A wood or marble tomb
In a hundred years, let’s say
Or a hundred so called days
What matters to he,
(He will be dead)?
A pompous monument
Will be of no goodyet
He built it out of Marble
(Nonetheless), not wood!

Your name will be forgotten
Amongst the rubbish and roots
O’er rotting dampness; and
Who will clean your tomb?
(I asked him all these things
Before he died; and he never
Did replyand built his tomb
Of marble, admiring its size!)

Youin there, in that tomb…!
You cannot hear a thing!!!!!
And out here they’re building
Yes…another mausoleum
For another rich man…!
