Prep Method 5

  1. 1.In a saucepan, bring the cream to a boil. Add the tea and set aside to infuse for approximately 5-10 minutes or until desired strength is achieved.
  2. 2.Strain the infused cream through a fine-mesh strainer, then rescale to the original weight.
  3. 3.Bring back to a boil with the sugar and pour over the chocolate. Allow to stand for one minute, then emulsify until smooth.
  4. 4.Stir in the softened butter.
  5. 5.Cover the surface of the ganache with plastic wrap. Allow to rest at room temperature until it reaches 78°F (26°C). The cooled ganache should have a thick, yet fluid consistency to properly fill bonbon shells.
