DAY ONE

Hydrate the gelatin in water #2 and set aside.

Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place into a small bowl. Add the condensed milk and bloomed gelatin.

Place the sugar, water #1 and glucose in a small pot and heat to 217F (103C). Pour the hot mixture over the chocolate and process with a hand blender until smooth. Keep the hand blender submerged in the liquid to avoid creating air bubbles.

Strain the mixture through a fine sieve and pour into a container. Cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin forming and place in the fridge for use the next day.

** Mirror glaze is best used the day after making.

DAY TWO

Remove the mirror glaze from the fridge. Heat to 104F (40C) and use.
