We like it raw, in tablets or melted in desserts, but it also lends itself to savory dishes and cocktails. And why not a completely cocoa Easter lunch?
Whether you choose to use the bean, intense cocoa powder, grating or melting chocolate, cocoa dishes are essential during the Easter meal.
Cocoa slipped into a crust to surround a leg of lamb; white chocolate to accompany roasted asparagus, melted chocolate in cocktails, or even flavored powder to rub meats, “chocolate” in the broad sense of the term adapts to many recipes, from the most gourmet to the most surprising.
The proof with these 22 proposals that will be a hit this Easter!
