When the cream has come to a boil, pour over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth. Stir in the rum if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will greatly impact the flavor of your ganache. Look for a white chocolate that is at least 30% cocoa butter.
  • Chop your chocolate finely: This will help it melt more evenly and smoothly.
  • Bring your cream to a simmer, not a boil: Boiling the cream will cause it to curdle.
  • Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate in three additions: This will help prevent the chocolate from seizing.
  • Stir the ganache constantly until it is smooth and glossy: This will take about 2 minutes.
  • Let the ganache cool slightly before using: This will help it to thicken and set.
  • If the ganache is too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of milk or cream.
  • If the ganache is too thin, you can thicken it up by adding a little bit of melted chocolate.

Conclusion:

White chocolate ganache is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you can make perfect white chocolate ganache every time.
