   Chocolate Noodles:

4. 4

   Combine dry ingredients and mix together well. Shear into the water and chocolate water on the vita prep and blend on medium speed for 1 minute. Transfer to a pot and heat to a simmer, stirring constantly. (Make sure you have the peristaltic pump and ice bath set up before you start.) Heat to 190u00b0F or above. Transfer to a plastic quart container and process through the pump.

   Neutral Fluid Gel Base:

   Shear the Agar Agar and sugar into the water and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour out into a container. Chill. Once set, shear again until fluid and pass through a chinois. Remove air in the cryovac machine.

   Peppermint Broth:

   Blanch and shock the GREEN ONLY leaves. Squeeze out and place in the vita prep. Add a small amount of water and simple syrup and blend until super fine. Chill on an ice bath. Pass through a chinois, then pass through a cheese cloth-lined chinois. Mix 4:1 peppermint to neural fluid gel. Just before serving, add a touch of peppermint oil to taste-use peppermint oil sparingly as it is very strong.

    Combine the first five ingredients and bring to a simmer. Combine the sugar and Sorbet Stabilizer and whisk in. Bring to a boil. Add chopped chocolate and emulsify with burr mixer.
