Sabrina: Are we making the chocolate cake?
Mrs. Monet: Yes.
Sabrina: What shall we do first?
Mrs. Monet: Well, I'm going to separate the whites from the yolks. I need a napkin.
Sabrina: We need four eggs?
Mrs. Monet: Yes, four eggs. I need a little salt.
Sabrina: A little salt?
Mrs. Monet: Please…Thanks. A little salt in the whites. Now I'm going to mix some sugar with the yolks.
Sabrina: How much sugar?
Mrs. Monet: I think it's a hundred and seventy grams. I've put it together, it. It's well mixed.
Sabrina: Shall I trash the shells?
Mrs. Monet: Yes. Okay, until it gets white. I'm going to put the oven on to preheat it.
Sabrina: What temperature?
Mrs. Monet: Between two hundred and two hundred and fifty. It depends on the oven.
Sabrina: Degrees?
Mrs. Monet: Yes degrees. I mix well. Then, I'm going to break the chocolate to melt it in the bain-marie.
Then, I add the flour.
Sabrina: You add the flour?
Mrs. Monet: I do. I think it's a hundred and seventy grams of flour. Here you go, slowly, always with the whisk, it's convenient. Then we add the melted butter.
Sabrina: Okay.
Mrs. Monet: It's a hundred and seventy grams. This cake is…
Sabrina: High-fat.
Mrs. Monet: Calorific. But you don't have to eat it all.
