VIDEO recipe! Pat's Sugar-free Chocolate Mousse
🕑 Added 2024-07-11 20:58:48 +0000 UTCI am excited to announce that I have made a fifty-second, single-camera video in which I demonstrate a recipe from Achewood Cookbook 2, for a decadent chocolate mousse that isn't full of horrible sugars.
As it is my first video, please suggest anything you think would make it a more useful or bearable experience! (Such as not leaving the recipe over the movie the whole time, or changing my personality.) And feel free to suggest any other Achewood recipes you'd like to see "filmed."
It might be a new era, now that I have learned how to make Adobe Premiere things and fiddle with them! Next week: I re-make the Netflix Great Outdoor Fight series, using two increasingly-leathery Nathan's hot dogs and some bendy wire.

If you've never used allulose, which is still fairly uncommon, it's a non-glycemic and very nearly calorie- and carbohydrate-free sweetener made from enzymatically treating corn. It's still on the expensive side, but well worth the investment if you, like me, have cut sugar from your diet so that you can live until the pyramids are completely eroded again.
Allulose is not a sugar alcohol, like erythritol. It doesn't have the off flavors of erythritol, stevia, and the other non-aspartame/sucralose sweeteners. It's 70% as sweet as table sugar, so adjust to taste.
I like to eat this with banana slices. I didn't mention that in the video. You can also omit the chocolate powder and just make a killer whipped cream.

This may be the first time I've ever heard The Man Himself speak... I am struggling to process this additional sensory perception. Not in a bad way, but it's like seeing the mall Santa walking to his car. Another layer deeper.

“Forget what know about Craveless Nori!” or whatever the exact wording is

I’m glad that you have a nice voice.

I found out I had DM2 the hard way just before Christmas, so this is of great interest. So far I've only had allulose in the invaluable sugar-free formulation of Liquid IV electrolyte powder, which to my taste is the only one of the bunch that doesn't taste like stale ass.

I enjoyed watching this. I have also watched every video Babish has ever made, and my cooking ability could land me in prison in some countries. Short version is: there is a market for this.

wait is it really a pat recipe if I'm not getting yelled at

Oh yes, take labeled ownership of it for realsies. I'm not a content creator so that never even crosses my mind.
Matt Mitchell
Really did a great job with that

I'm thinking of adding the achewood URL, in case this ever breaks out from behind the paywall and makes it to the big screen.

I can vouch for allulose's utility and completely neutral flavor. It also doesn't have untoward GI side effects that I'm aware of. I have made this or a version of it many times, being a diabetic queen with a monster of a sweet tooth. I like it partly frozen with raspberries. I have no notes in terms of videography, etc.
Matt Mitchell
Well done.
