RE: Boozy Hot Chocolate... Perfect for the cold in SA at the moment - a BraaiBoyTV recipe.
I am more of a beer man myself, and I also love chocolate, I get the feeling one can mess up the chocolate a bit, by adding it to the wine. It looks to me if you used normal baking chocolate, would a more dark chocolate or milk chocolate be the best for it? I notice your bottle of wine has a cork and not a screw cap, thus it should be a bit of a better wine, what type of red wine did you use? How will something like OBS work with dark chocolate?? (Perhaps I should try it)
This is something I could try that my wife would like, I could even impress her with this!!
Nice post!!
Same... I never drink wine... whiskey and beer for me please, but I do use it in potjies and such, and in this recipe it's amazing!
I used baking chocolate because i dont really have too much of a sweet tooth, and I couldn't find plain dark chocolate... orange, mint and every other mix under the sun... but not plain.
Re the wine: I may have mentioned, I dont really do wine, but my girlfriend does, and she bought it... she also drank the rest of the bottle and liked it. There's an old saying when using booze in food: if it's not good enough to drink, then it not good enough to cook ... I'm no expert, but I tend to agree.
It sounds right to me "if it's not good enough to drink, then it not good enough to cook"
