Chocolate Sauce

Warm strained chocolate egg custard sauce made with 60-70% dark chocolate and two egg yolks, cooked to 74 degrees C. Source : Alexander Filippini, The International Cook Book (1906), filippini-1906-0406. Adaptation documentaire ; illustration synthétique. Recette non cuisinée ni mesurée par cette campagne. Adaptations : Use fresh food-safe milk, not intentionally aged/spoiled milk. Use pasteurized yolks or cook sauce to 74°C while whisking; printed five-minute final heat is a guide. Refrigerate leftover sauce promptly. Limites : This documented adaptation uses 60-70% dark chocolate; the source gives no cocoa percentage. Use two egg yolks and cook the sauce to 74 degrees C. The printed final five minutes is a guide; final yield and the time needed to reach the endpoint are unknown. The source scan specifies cold milk. No physical cooking trial is claimed.
