It is quick and simple to do. If you have a thermometer you can use it but if you do not have one you can still temper chocolate. Tempering chocolate makes it smooth and glossy and it is different from just melting chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>In this recipe I use dark chocolate but you can use milk and white chocolate too but they melt at different temperatures, watch out for that, if you are using a thermometer. Here is a rough guide of the ideal meting temperatures for the different types of chocolate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tempering chocolate temperatures chart (rough guide)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dark Chocolate: 48 Celcius \u2013 51\u00b0 Celcius<br \/>\nMilk Chocolate: 40 Celcius \u2013 45\u00b0Celcius<br \/>\nWhite Chocolate:39 Celcius \u2013 43\u00b0Celcius<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>300g dark chocolate, minimum 70% cocoa solids<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Method<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Put three quarters of your (225g) of the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and put some water in a pot and bring it to a gentle simmer.<\/li>\n<li>Put the bowl over the pot of simmering water, the bowl must not touch the water, until it reaches (if using a thermometer about 51 celsius).
