47. Yes to salty chocolate!

Fri May 17, 2013, 12:56 AM

May 2013

I made the most delicious English toffee from a New York Times cookbook recipe. It was covered in chocolate, with chopped almonds on one side and flaked sea salt sprinkled on the other side, and in biting into it you met with very little resistance, it just fell apart into a wonderful salty, sweet mouthful. I can't be trusted around that kind of complete bliss ever again, and must be monitored by someone with a large stick.

So glad you wrote a song about salty chocolate... it was so deserving of one.
