You're doing everything you can ATK to make me wanna unsubscribe.. um…seriously.
I don't know what the hell this video is, but if you want to melt chocolate chips, a plastic/glass bowl in the microwave for 1-3 minutes is magic. No better way IMO.
Is in my mouth
Yes, but once it it becomes fluid again it may no longer be suitable for the application it was intended because it won't set properly after adding liquid. It will become more of a ganache.
who doesn't know this?
There was one tip.. and its a shitty one
That didn’t tell me how to melt chocolate
Thank for tip have a bless Sunday and a bless week
Remember when videos had varying degree of topics? Instead of one minute tips?
Butter, water… Melt with it? But isn't that what caused it in the first place?
I have read another possible solution is to add oil. I have added vegetable oil to my chocolate when it stiffens and that has worked. Is water preferable over oil? Or does it depend on the recipe and how the chocolate will be used?
ha
water problem, water solution
