Homemade Nutella

There are a lot of horrific recipes out there with the soul purpose of making it "healthier". I want similar results attempted by the ketchup recipe here https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/homemade-heinz-style-ketchup . It's not 100% Heinz but pretty darn close!

Hoping to get some direction on how to make as-close-to-the-real-thing as possible. I'm looking to get color, texture and taste like the store bought product. I think I've gotten all the ingredients to attempt this. The obvious problem is proportion. Has anybody else dared to try?

You need some real hardcore equipment to powder the hazelnuts as to a fine paste as required.

I Think my PacoJet with the Coupe-set can do this, and will try this recipe with it:http://www.splendidtable.org/recipes/homemade-nutella

I was able to get it fairly smooth with the Vitamix. Something else I may try is to use liquid nitrogen to make it into a finer powder. I'll try the recipe you posted. Already the image looks much better than what's out there. Thanks!

Did you look at the pistachio butter recipe? I would replace pistachio with hazelnuts and veg shortening with palm oil add some cacao. I would start with exact recipe and add the cacao at the and and adjust thickness and sugar and oil.

I was thinking the same thing

Found some palm oil at an asian store. Ideally I'd have a melanger for the hazelnut, but I'm still able to get a fairly smooth texture with the vitatmix. Thanks for the tip!

I have pacojet 2 , melanger and vitamix. Melanger gives the best results in my opinion. Of course if you want ice cream then we know what we need
