From the archives: Chocolate-hazelnut butter recipe
Sorry for the lack of updates. Life has taken hold, and I’m working on freelance food articles. There’s a lot of posts in development here. When I get a moment, I’ll talk about the famous Chez Panisse gingersnaps, NYC Chocolate Show, French Culinary Institute grapefruit dessert demo and how to get a crispy pizza crust without a stone. Until then, here’s an all-natural chocolate-hazelnut spread recipe (a la Nutella) that I developed a while ago.
Also, I’m getting on my soapbox, but this Rolling Stone article about pork is why I’ve severely limited my consumption of animal products. Smithfield Foods, the nation’s biggest pork producer, generates more poop than all of Manhattan. Not only is it bad for the environment, but people who live nearby have to breathe it in. The poop that is collected is mixed with stillborns and antibiotic syringes. Even if you love bacon, please be aware of where it comes from. Boycott Smithfield! Write a hate letter!
