The base to make Gianduja (chocolate and hazelnut paste used to make sweet chocolates or other mixtures for pastry). Usually Gianduja is made of hazelnuts but here I used almonds (just 'cause I love it).
To get Gianduja (with hazelnuts) or almond duja (with almond) just add chocolate to the duja paste (about half of the duja paste weight).
Ingredients :
- almonds (or hazelnuts)
- same weight icing sugar
Roast the almonds or hazelnuts in the oven for about 15 minutes...
Mix them in a food processor, then weigh them and add the same amount of icing sugar. Then place again in the food processor and mix until you get a paste. Use right away or keep it in a hermetic container.
