One of the most delicious and versatile ingredients the power of chocolate lies in its ability to change form. From creamy bars of chocolate to meltingly luxurious pistoles, and rich cocoa powders, chocolate can be used in almost any way.
When buying chocolate, you’ll always see a numbered percentage on the packaging, this indicates the amount of cocoa solids used in the production of the chocolate bar. Naturally, the higher that number, the more intensely flavored and bitter the chocolate will be. Its texture is affected too. High percentage chocolates are quite brittle, while those with more cocoa butter and/or more dairy products are creamier and have that melt-in-the-mouth quality. All of Valrhona’s chocolate is single-origin, meaning the cacao is all sourced from one place, this helps develop distinctive aromas and a certain terroir just like wine or coffee. The country of origin is also marked on their products, an easy way to determine your source.
