In the kitchen, I love mixing chocolate with spices to make delicious desserts. Dark chocolate works well with cinnamon. The spicy, sweet flavor of cinnamon makes the chocolate taste even richer. Milk chocolate is great with nutmeg. Nutmeg adds a warm, nutty flavor that many people enjoy. For white chocolate, I like to use cardamom. It has a fresh, citrusy taste that makes white chocolate less sweet. When mixing spices with chocolate, I melt the chocolate first. Then, I stir in a little spice. Be careful not to use too much spice, or it can taste too strong!
I’m at a restaurant, and I want a special dessert. I love chocolate, but I also want something spicy and unique. I’ve had dark chocolate with cinnamon before, and it was amazing. This time, I want to try something new. Maybe milk chocolate with a spice? Something warm and cozy, like nutmeg, would be nice. Or, if the chef has white chocolate, I’d like something fresh with it. Maybe cardamom? I’m not sure what’s best, so I’ll let the chef decide. I just hope the spice makes the chocolate taste even better!
Now, discuss your readings with your partner. Do NOT show your text. Only talk about it. Ask questions to understand their text.
Work together to decide which chocolate and spice combinations the customer should try.
