Do you prefer a neat chocolate drizzle? Or something a little more natural and organic? Here are two easy tricks to drizzle chocolate over just about anything.
Melt the Chocolate
First, melt the chocolate to drizzle. In a microwave-safe dish, microwave chopped chocolate for 30-second intervals, with occasional stirring, until the chocolate is all melted. Alternatively, use a double boiler to melt the chocolate. Place the chocolate in a bowl set over a pot with a bit of water which is lightly simmering. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is all melted.
Now for the Drizzling – Two Ways
To get very even and precise chocolate, pour the melted chocolate into a Ziploc bag and cut off a bit of the corner, then drizzle with a zig-zag motion.
Enjoy!
Strawberries are for demonstrative purposes. Note that strawberries must be checked; many hold this cannot be done with the stem, if at all. Ask your own Rav or kashrus agency for instructions.
Or skip the bowl and double boiler and just put the chopped chocolate into a good quality ziplock bag. Then put it into another bag. Fill a disposable soup bowl w hot water and let the bag of chocolate sit in there for a few minutes till chocolate melts. Discard the outer bag and snip a corner off the inner bag. Voila!
Thank you Mrs. S. I am going to try your method.
I wondered why I couldn’t just do that! Thanks for the confirmation!
Does the chocolate dry hard?
