Title: Gogol-Mogol - chocolate style!
Post by: yuli on September 22, 2010, 07:53:58 am
So when I am on the rag I like to pamper myself with things that are sweet and chocolaty! This is a great desert-dish if you love egg yolks, custard-type stuff and chocolate...it is also extremely popular with children. In Russia these types of things are called Gogol-Mogol (lol, the name makes no sense)
Put the following in a bowl - the amounts of each item can be adjusted to your specific taste preferences: - RAW EGG YOLKS - ORGANIC RAW COCO POWDER - RAW HONEY - (optional) pinch of ground cinnamon
Mix these all with a fork until smooth and creamy...enjoy!!! Eating this thing makes me really hyper something about the egg yolks, chocolate and sweet honey -d

I bet it's great, Yuli. Thanks for sharing. It's not usually made with chocolate, right? I think gogol mogol means something like, "mixed up". I consider aajonus' moisturizing formula to be a gogol mogol. It's raw cream, raw egg, unheated honey and a little bit of lemon. Are gogol mogols used in all or many illnesses? I heard they were used for colds.

nope its usually made with eggs, honey or sugar, cognac, vanilla and lemon juice (or something like that) and it was a remedy for sore throat for those that have a cold or for singers...but as a kid I always had the chocolate version so it kinda stuck with me :P

The one I had today was: 4 egg yolks 2 teaspoons cocoa and just almost a full teaspoon honey 3 pinches cinnamon ...the color was black-brown, with a golden hue (it depends on the size of the eggs too of course)

I heard from people who used it a hundred years ago and more. I'm thinking this is why cream may have been used. Back then, you'd have a 99.999% chance it wasn't pasteurized, and wasn't fed factory waste.
What form would the vanilla be in? I've made vanilla sugar, letting a vanilla pods sit in turbinado sugar.
My father gave me lemon, cognac and honey mixed when I was a kid for a cold. It kind of helped. I'm glad I had it. It didn't taste as bad as US drugstore cold medicine either. Do you think it could be considered a gogol mogol even without the egg yolk? He didn't call it anything, just said it would help, which it did.
I first heard the word gogol mogol cause I made moisturizing formula wherever I went. Some old people told me about the words gogol mogol and how their parents made it.
Do you have a picture of it?

Great pic Yuli, t/y. I'm going to try it sometime. I have organic ground cocoa beans in my fridge. Next time dh eats vegan chocolate cake, I'll try making chocolate mogol. I wonder if there's anything that would combine well to dip into it. Maybe pieces of a bland unsalted cow cheese might work.
