Tips for Covering Strawberries in Chocolate
February 09, 2010 | Permanent Link
Red ripe strawberries are on sale this week at Potash for $2.99 for one pound! Here are some tips for impressing your sweetie or guests with chocolate covered strawberries.
Basic
- Use milk chocolate chips
- Make sure strawberries are thoroughly dry after rinsing
- Use a double boiler, not letting the water touch the bottom of upper pan
- Heat until only 1/2 of chocolate is melted, remove from heat and stir gently until it is all melted
- Insert toothpicks into top of strawberry, then insert toothpick into styrofoam, or use the holes of a colander for chocolate to cool
The Extra Gourmet Touch
- With a syringe, carefully inject strawberries with a little sweet white wine (after dipping in chocolate)
- Drizzle melted white chocolate over dark chocolate for a dazzling effect
- Drizzle leftoever melted chocolate over pretzels for a contrasting taste sensation
