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.
