How to Make Chantilly Cream G. Giustolisi

On the authorship of the Chantilly cream, there is no certainty, nor written documentation to confirm its legend. Legend says it was invented by Fritz Karla, known as François Vatel (1631 to 1671). A cook and caterer, Vatel worked for the most powerful French noble families of his era. In the castle of Vaux-Le-Vicomte, Vatel could have given life to one of the world’s most famous creams which he then made again once he was hired by Louis II de Bourbon, Prince of Condé at Chantilly Castle, in honor of that appointment.

As with any recipe, for a good Chantilly, quality of ingredients is essential.

Ideal for filling sweets or to decorate with, this rich and delicious cream is also perfect to be served simply in glasses with fruit or sauces.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp organic vanilla “Bourbon”
  • 250 ml 9 oz dairy free fresh cream (regular heavy cream can be used, too)
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Mix the vanilla with the cream and let it sit in the fridge for 2-3 hours. Also store in the refrigerator any electric whips and the container you will whip in. A cold bowl and equipment will help the cream to whip faster and be stabile.
  2. Whip the cream, adding sugar only when it has already taken form and started to thicken.
  3. Keep in refrigerator.

  • This is probably the most straightforward and easiest way to explain Chantilly cream to a rookie. Always have to remind the members of my family who aren’t quite as “ambitious” in the kitchen that not every ingredient needs to be, nor should be store bought. Props to #FoodNetwork & #CakeWars & all the baking championships keeping the SWEET dreams alive!
