chocolate bread
with white chocolate spread & summer berries
*Flax meal is simply flax seed that has been ground in a
high-speed blender or coffee grinder.
Assemble all ingredients into a large bowl and mix
together by hand.
Grind in a food processor in small batches until a
dough-like consistency is achieved.
Divide the mixture between 2 non-stick sheets on
dehydrator trays. Spread the mixture evenly across the
sheets so that it covers the whole thing just up to the
edge of the sheet itself. Use a spatula to square up the
edges. Be aware that the mixture will become sticky quite
quickly. If mixture becomes too sticky, occasionally dip the
spatula in water to help spread evenly.
Score the dough into 9 pieces, totaling 18 pieces over
the 2 trays.
Place in dehydrator at 115F for first 3 hours then
invert onto the mesh sheet of the dehydrator tray
(without the non-stick sheet) for an additional 1015
hours or until the bread feels light and slightly spongy in
your hand, without being completely hard and dry.
Cut each piece into triangles, ready to serve. Will also
store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week.

chocolate fondant
with cacao & basil shard and vanilla cashew cream
3 tablespoons cacao powder

3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch salt
Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender
To assemble
Take a metal ring (the ones you find in kitchen and
cook shops) and line with baking paper.
Place on a plate and fill about 13 of the way up with
some of the Part 1 mixture.
On to that spoon in some of the Part 2 mixture.
Lastly, fill with more of the Part 1 mixture. The idea is
to completely cover the Part 2 mixture so that it forms a
soft centre to the fondant.
