Melting chocolate.........be in control!


Some folks have asked this question, "Whats the best way to melt chocolate?". Ok, so I thought I would give you a few options. First, chop or grate the chocolate because it will melt much more evenly this way. Below are four options for melting. Here ya go!

1. You can melt it in a heavy saucepan on very, very low heat stirring constantly. However, you must be super vigilant to avoid scorching. Chocolate can be very tricky.

2. You can melt it in the oven at 200 degrees F till its stirrable and soft.

3. You can melt it in the microwave in a glass bowl for a minute or more. You must keep an eye on it here though.

4. This is the best way to melt chocolate. I prefer in the top of a double boiler, over some simmering water and stirring constantly. You have more control here, which is the best way to melt chocolate . Being in control.
