Critical Success Points

  • Melt the chocolate in a bain‑marie without burning it.
  • Whip the egg whites (or aquafaba) to the proper consistency.
  • Incorporate the whites/aquafaba gently to avoid breaking the air bubbles.

Safety Warnings

  • Melted chocolate is very hot; handle the bowl with kitchen gloves.
  • Raw egg whites carry a risk of salmonella; use pasteurized eggs if you are pregnant or immunocompromised.
  • Watch out for steam from the bain‑marie to avoid burns.
