Ingredients
  

Chantilly Ingredients
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream 480ml, chilled
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar 30g, sifted
  • 1 whole vanilla bean seeds scraped
  • 1 pinch fine sea salt invisible flavor enhancer

Equipment

  • 1 Clear glass mixing bowl Chilled in freezer
  • 1 Stainless steel wire whisk Hand whisking preferred for texture control
  • 1 Fine-mesh sieve For sifting powdered sugar

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place your glass mixing bowl and stainless steel whisk in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to starting.
  2. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the black seeds into the chilled heavy cream.
Whipping
  1. Sift the powdered sugar and salt into the cream. Begin whisking slowly to incorporate air.
  2. Increase whisking speed until the cream becomes thick and velvety. Look for a glossy sheen and tiny visible vanilla specks.
  3. Stop when you reach stable soft peaks; the cream should hold its shape on the whisk but the tip should gently curl.
