Over 50 Inspiring Recipes for Chocolate Indulgence.
Ever evangelical in her mission to remind the world of the mood-enhancing and health-giving marvel that is "real chocolate", as opposed to the usual additive- and fat-laden confectionery, Chantal Coady's 'Real Chocolate' is now in paperback.
The book begins with a brief history of chocolate, explains the processes involved in turning it from bean to bar, and how the beans can be blended like a fine wine to give subtly complex final flavours. Chantal also explains how to recognise quality in chocolate.
The second section, Real Chocolate Know-How, employs a series of user-friendly masterclasses, clearly illustrated with step-by-step photographs, to demonstrate the making of ganache, and tempering, moulding and sculpting chocolate, giving the reader the necessary skills to get the most out of working with it.
The heart of the book, Real Chocolate Delight, contains 50 delicious recipes arranged in three chapters on Savoury Chocolate, Puddings, Desserts and Drinks, and Biscuits, Cakes and Breads.
After reading 'Real Chocolate', you'll never look at this daily treat in the same way again.
