ADVOCAAT



Advocaat image

For the beloved British holiday cocktail the Snowball, commercially bottled advocaat is the way to go. But purists will prefer to make this Dutch favorite from scratch.

Provided by Rosie Schaap

Categories     project

Number Of Ingredients 5

10 large egg yolks
1 1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup brandy
Seeds scraped from one vanilla bean or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Beat the yolks, sugar, vanilla and salt until thick.
  • Whisk in the brandy, very slowly, until well blended.
  • Transfer the mixture to a heavy saucepan or double boiler. Whisk over gentle, steady heat until it's thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. (Go slowly, or the emulsion will separate.)
  • Remove from heat, let cool, then transfer the advocaat to a clean, sealable bottle or other container. Seal, and chill in the refrigerator before serving. Some people like to let it "cure" for up to a week; in the interest of safety, I prefer to use it within two or three days.

What is Advocaat?

Advocaat is a Dutch liqueur that is made from eggs, sugar, and brandy. It has a creamy, yellow color and a sweet taste, and it is typically served as a dessert drink. Advocaat is often compared to eggnog, but it has a thicker, more custard-like consistency. Advocaat has been popular in the Netherlands for centuries, and it is often associated with Christmas and other winter celebrations. It is also a popular ingredient in many Dutch desserts, including cakes and pastries.

The History of Advocaat

The origins of advocaat are somewhat unclear, but it is believed to have been invented in the 17th century by Dutch traders who were looking for a way to preserve eggs during long sea voyages. The addition of sugar and brandy to the eggs helped to prevent spoilage, and the resulting mixture was found to be delicious. Over time, advocaat became a popular drink in the Netherlands, and it was traditionally served in a small glass filled to the brim. The glass was often accompanied by a spoon, which was used to scoop out the thick, custard-like mixture. Today, advocaat is still a beloved drink in the Netherlands, and it is available in many different varieties. Some of the most popular advocaat brands include Bols, De Kuyper, and Warninks.

Advocaat Recipes

Advocaat is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of different recipes. Here are just a few examples:
Advocaat Cake
To make an advocaat cake, mix together 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. In a separate bowl, beat together 1/2 cup of butter, 1 cup of sugar, and 4 egg yolks until light and fluffy. Add in 1/2 cup of advocaat and mix until well combined. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until everything is fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, beat 4 egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until everything is well combined. Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9-inch cake pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45-50 minutes. Allow the cake to cool before serving.
Advocaat Pudding
To make advocaat pudding, heat 3 cups of whole milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 egg yolks, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of advocaat. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the hot milk, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Pour the pudding into individual serving cups and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Serve the pudding with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
Advocaat Cocktail
To make an advocaat cocktail, combine 1/4 cup of advocaat and 1/4 cup of vodka in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish the cocktail with a sprinkle of nutmeg on top.

Advocaat, the famous Dutch eggnog liqueur, is a thick and creamy beverage with a silky texture and a sweet and rich flavor. It is usually served in small glasses garnished with whipped cream and grated nutmeg during holidays and special occasions. Advocaat is not only a delicious drink but it also has a long history and cultural significance in the Netherlands. In this article, we will provide valuable tips for making advocaat recipes and discuss the unique ingredients, tools, and techniques that can enhance your advocaat-making experience.

Ingredient Tips

Advocaat is made with a few simple ingredients such as eggs, sugar, and brandy, but the quality of these ingredients can greatly affect the final product. Here are some tips for selecting and preparing the ingredients for your advocaat recipe:
1. Egg Yolks
Egg yolks are the main ingredient in advocaat and should be fresh and high-quality. Make sure to use eggs that are at room temperature and free from any cracks or defects. If you are concerned about the risk of salmonella, you can use pasteurized eggs or heat the yolks to 160°F (71°C) to kill any bacteria. Separating the yolks from the whites can be tricky, so use a separator or crack the egg into your hand and let the whites slip through your fingers.
2. Sugar
Sugar is used to sweeten the advocaat and balance the alcohol and egg flavors. Use a high-quality granulated sugar and measure it precisely for consistent results. You can also experiment with different types of sugar such as superfine, brown, or raw sugar for different flavors and textures.
3. Brandy
Brandy is the traditional alcohol used in advocaat and adds warmth and depth to the drink. Use a good-quality brandy that is aged for at least 2 years for best results. If you prefer a different flavor, you can substitute the brandy with rum, whiskey, or even vodka.
4. Flavors and Spices
Advocaat is usually flavored with vanilla extract and nutmeg, but you can add other spices or extracts to suit your taste. Some popular flavors include cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and allspice. Keep in mind that a little goes a long way, so start with small amounts and taste as you go.

Equipment Tips

Making advocaat requires a few basic kitchen tools such as a double boiler, whisk, and thermometer, but having the right equipment can make the process smoother and more enjoyable. Here are some tips for selecting and using the equipment for your advocaat recipe:
1. Double Boiler
A double boiler is essential for making advocaat because it allows you to cook the mixture indirectly and prevent the eggs from curdling. If you don't have a double boiler, you can use a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water and stir the mixture constantly to avoid overheating.
2. Whisk
A whisk is used to mix and aerate the advocaat, creating a smooth and creamy texture. Use a wire whisk or a hand blender for best results and make sure to whisk the mixture continuously while cooking and cooling. It can be tiring to whisk for a long time, so take breaks and switch hands if necessary.
3. Thermometer
A thermometer is crucial for checking the temperature of the advocaat and ensuring that it is safe to consume. Invest in a digital thermometer with a probe that can be inserted into the mixture and read the temperature instantly. Make sure to clean the thermometer thoroughly before and after every use.
4. Storage Container
Once the advocaat is made, it should be stored in a clean and airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Use glass jars or bottles with tight-fitting lids and label them with the date and flavor. Advocaat can also be stored in the freezer for longer periods, but it may separate or lose its texture when thawed.

Technique Tips

Making advocaat can be a delicate process that requires patience and attention to detail. Here are some tips for mastering the technique of making advocaat:
1. Heat Control
The most important technique in making advocaat is controlling the heat of the double boiler or water bath. The mixture should be cooked over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. The temperature should not exceed 170°F (77°C) or the eggs can curdle and ruin the texture. If you notice any lumps or curdles, remove the mixture from the heat and blend it with an immersion blender until smooth.
2. Cooling and Aging
After the advocaat is cooked, it should be cooled and aged for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld and the alcohol to mellow. Cover the surface of the mixture with plastic wrap or a parchment paper to prevent a skin from forming and store it in a container with a tight lid.
3. Serving and Garnishing
Advocaat is typically served in small glasses, with or without ice, and garnished with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon. Use a small ladle or spoon to portion the advocaat and avoid stirring it to preserve the thick and creamy texture. Advocaat can also be used in cocktails or desserts such as trifle or custard.

Conclusion

Making advocaat can be a rewarding and delicious experience, but it requires attention to detail, quality ingredients, and proper technique. By following these valuable tips, you can create a rich and smooth advocaat that will impress your guests and become a holiday tradition in your family. Remember to experiment with flavors and spices, adapt the recipe to your preferences, and most importantly, have fun!
