writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>.

But our group is on a different mission: to trace the edible history of chocolate by sampling its local incarnations (sweet, savory and drinkable) with the help of Lisa Rogovin, founder of \u003ca href=\"http://www.edibleexcursions.net\" target=\"_blank\">Edible Excursions\u003c/a>. Her company’s latest tour takes our taste buds on a 3-hour exploration of traditional and innovative chocolate creations that dot San Francisco’s Mission District. Our first stop connects chocolate to its Mexican roots: chicken drenched in an earthy Poblano Chocolate Mole, a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_sauce\" target=\"_blank\">celebratory dish\u003c/a> that dates back to the 1600s and represents Mexico’s mixed indigenous and European heritage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mole’s silken, sienna sauce is the result of a multi-step process of roasting, grinding and simmering more than 20 ingredients, including chili peppers (ancho, pasilla, mulato and chipotle), spices such as cumin, cloves, anise, cinnamon and garlic, plus the Mexican chocolate that gives the spicy heat its tinge of sweetness. The rich warmth of this dish lingers on our throats as we gather outside to continue our journey. Before the next stop on our walking tour, Lisa fills us in on a brief history of chocolate, its place in San Francisco and specifically the Mission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87466\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Lisa-group.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87466\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Lisa-group.jpg\" alt=\"Lisa Rogovin of Edible Excursions relates the history of chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas\" width=\"1000\" height=\"656\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lisa Rogovin of Edible Excursions relates the history of chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The cocoa bean (or cacao) has been traced back to ancient Mesoamerican civilizations. The Mayans and Aztecs used cacao both as a form of currency and a beverage, which was reserved for royalty, nobility and warriors. Once this chocolate drink made its way back to Europe -- first documented in 1544 in Spain -- it was also imbibed there by the ruling classes. The Italians began adding chocolate to food (cakes, meats, pastries, and pasta) and the French exclusively used it with desserts. While the Aztecs only drank their chocolate, more contemporary Mesoamericans were eating chocolate in the savory Mole Poblano sauce from the late 17th century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>History of Chocolate in San Francisco\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the early 18th century, chocolate had made its way to the American colonies. San Francisco is synonymous with chocolate. (Think \u003ca href=\"http://www.ghirardelli.com\" target=\"_blank\">Ghirardelli\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.guittard.com\" target=\"_blank\">Guittard\u003c/a>.) In the mid 1800s, both Domingo Ghirardelli and Etienne Guittard realized that wealthy gold miners were the perfect patrons for their chocolate luxuries. The Ghirardelli Chocolate Company is America’s longest continuously operating chocolate manufacturer, but is no longer family-owned. Guittard, who started in 1868 with a small shop near the Embarcadero, now operates out of a 200-person factory in Burlingame and is the oldest family-owned chocolate company in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Schmidt_Confections\" target=\"_blank\">Joseph Schmidt\u003c/a> – famous for their egg shaped truffles - had a factory on Folsom and 16th and a store on Sanchez. Sadly, Hershey’s bought and then eliminated the brand. The ubiquitous \u003ca href=\"http://www.sees.com/index.cfm/about_us\" target=\"_blank\">See’s Candy\u003c/a>, which began in Los Angeles and then expanded north, once also had factory in the Mission. Happily, two vibrant chocolate factories are still operating in the Mission and await us on our tour today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we round the corner of 20th and Florida, Lisa tells us that \u003ca href=\"http://www.charleschocolates.com\" target=\"_blank\">Charles Chocolates\u003c/a> has been part of the San Francisco chocolate scene since 1987. Today, we are lucky to have the owner, self-taught chocolatier, Charles “Chuck” Siegel, enlighten us about his passionate affair with chocolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87470\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 750px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Chuck-Siegel.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87470\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Chuck-Siegel.jpg\" alt=\"Chuck Siegel of Charles Chocolates. photo: Lila Volkas\" width=\"750\" height=\"883\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chuck Siegel of Charles Chocolates. photo: Lila Volkas\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In his blue jeans, t-shirt and running shoes, Chuck bubbles over with boyish enthusiasm, especially when he rhapsodizes on his favorite subject. Although he grew up in Flint, Michigan, a locale he calls “a culinary wasteland,” his family traveled a lot, and his father would always present his mother a gift of premium chocolates from New York, England or France. Tastes of those gifts inspired Chuck to recreate his favorite childhood candies with a gourmet reinterpretation. “I feel strongly that confections are ‘food’ if you start with good ingredients,” Chuck tells us. “So we use the best cream, butter, fresh herbs, fruit and nuts.” As in its former Emeryville location, the floor to ceiling glass walls of his open kitchens allow patrons to watch the entire process of candy making.

As we examine the football shaped dried cocoa pod, dried cocoa beans are passed around and we’re instructed to rub off the roasted shells to nibble on the nibs. While Becky continues her talk and shows photos of the cacao plant, I hear one of the guests murmur that it’s hard to absorb the geographical details of growing cacao in the equatorial ring, when someone is holding a tray of chocolate right in front of our faces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87476\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 750px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Becky-D.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87476\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Becky-D.jpg\" alt=\"Becky Wurang describes Dandelion's bean to bar chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas.\" width=\"750\" height=\"993\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Becky Wurang describes Dandelion's bean to bar chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Our first sample is a slurp of a cacao fruit smoothie, which is the pureed form of the pulp that surrounds the chocolate seeds, or beans. The pulp is necessary in fermentation and this drink is imbued with a hint of tropical fruit. Finally, Becky hands out samples of three different chocolate bars that came from beans grown in Liberia, Belize and Madagascar. All are 70% chocolate, 30% cane sugar which makes their vastly different flavor personalities stand out. To me, the Liberian is mild and mellow, while the Belize has a citrusy zing and a floral finish, and the Madagascar a deep but not unpleasant smoky-sourness. Tasting three in succession emphasizes their variation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What makes these single origin bars taste so different is the \u003cem>terroir\u003c/em>, or the land on which their beans were grown. It should not be surprising that just as coffee and wines vary depending on their place of origin; the flavor of the cacao bean depends on the type of soil, rainfall, how the farmers handle the beans and how the beans are processed. Speaking of processing, Becky leads us inside Dandelion to show us where the beans become bars through a series of complex and time-intensive steps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We get a brief tour of the living museum of machines inside Dandelion’s onsite chocolate factory, including a roaster, cracking machine, sorter, winnower, melanger, tempering machine and a vintage German wrapper from the 1950s that encases Dandelion bars in their distinctive gold foil. I never realized how each step of the process could be subject to many possible variations of time and temperature that all affect the final product.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87480\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/chocolate-cocktail.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87480\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/chocolate-cocktail.jpg\" alt=\"Mosto's chocolate cocktail. photo: Lila Volkas.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"871\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mosto's chocolate cocktail. photo: Lila Volkas.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After this fascinating backstory of the chocolate-making process, we cross Valenicia and duck into \u003ca href=\"http://mostosf.com\" target=\"_blank\">Mosto\u003c/a>, sister bar to \u003ca href=\"http://tacolicious.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Tacolicious\u003c/a>, which boasts over 300 varieties of tequila, mezcal and \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sotol\" target=\"_blank\">sotol\u003c/a>.

Her company’s latest tour takes our taste buds on a 3-hour exploration of traditional and innovative chocolate creations that dot San Francisco’s Mission District. Our first stop connects chocolate to its Mexican roots: chicken drenched in an earthy Poblano Chocolate Mole, a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_sauce\" target=\"_blank\">celebratory dish\u003c/a> that dates back to the 1600s and represents Mexico’s mixed indigenous and European heritage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mole’s silken, sienna sauce is the result of a multi-step process of roasting, grinding and simmering more than 20 ingredients, including chili peppers (ancho, pasilla, mulato and chipotle), spices such as cumin, cloves, anise, cinnamon and garlic, plus the Mexican chocolate that gives the spicy heat its tinge of sweetness. The rich warmth of this dish lingers on our throats as we gather outside to continue our journey.

The Mayans and Aztecs used cacao both as a form of currency and a beverage, which was reserved for royalty, nobility and warriors. Once this chocolate drink made its way back to Europe -- first documented in 1544 in Spain -- it was also imbibed there by the ruling classes. The Italians began adding chocolate to food (cakes, meats, pastries, and pasta) and the French exclusively used it with desserts. While the Aztecs only drank their chocolate, more contemporary Mesoamericans were eating chocolate in the savory Mole Poblano sauce from the late 17th century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>History of Chocolate in San Francisco\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the early 18th century, chocolate had made its way to the American colonies.

The Ghirardelli Chocolate Company is America’s longest continuously operating chocolate manufacturer, but is no longer family-owned.

As we examine the football shaped dried cocoa pod, dried cocoa beans are passed around and we’re instructed to rub off the roasted shells to nibble on the nibs. While Becky continues her talk and shows photos of the cacao plant, I hear one of the guests murmur that it’s hard to absorb the geographical details of growing cacao in the equatorial ring, when someone is holding a tray of chocolate right in front of our faces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87476\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 750px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Becky-D.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87476\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/Becky-D.jpg\" alt=\"Becky Wurang describes Dandelion's bean to bar chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas.\" width=\"750\" height=\"993\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Becky Wurang describes Dandelion's bean to bar chocolate. photo: Lila Volkas.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Our first sample is a slurp of a cacao fruit smoothie, which is the pureed form of the pulp that surrounds the chocolate seeds, or beans. The pulp is necessary in fermentation and this drink is imbued with a hint of tropical fruit. Finally, Becky hands out samples of three different chocolate bars that came from beans grown in Liberia, Belize and Madagascar. All are 70% chocolate, 30% cane sugar which makes their vastly different flavor personalities stand out. To me, the Liberian is mild and mellow, while the Belize has a citrusy zing and a floral finish, and the Madagascar a deep but not unpleasant smoky-sourness. Tasting three in succession emphasizes their variation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What makes these single origin bars taste so different is the \u003cem>terroir\u003c/em>, or the land on which their beans were grown. It should not be surprising that just as coffee and wines vary depending on their place of origin; the flavor of the cacao bean depends on the type of soil, rainfall, how the farmers handle the beans and how the beans are processed. Speaking of processing, Becky leads us inside Dandelion to show us where the beans become bars through a series of complex and time-intensive steps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We get a brief tour of the living museum of machines inside Dandelion’s onsite chocolate factory, including a roaster, cracking machine, sorter, winnower, melanger, tempering machine and a vintage German wrapper from the 1950s that encases Dandelion bars in their distinctive gold foil. I never realized how each step of the process could be subject to many possible variations of time and temperature that all affect the final product.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_87480\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/chocolate-cocktail.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-87480\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/09/chocolate-cocktail.jpg\" alt=\"Mosto's chocolate cocktail. photo: Lila Volkas.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"871\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mosto's chocolate cocktail. photo: Lila Volkas.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After this fascinating backstory of the chocolate-making process, we cross Valenicia and duck into \u003ca href=\"http://mostosf.com\" target=\"_blank\">Mosto\u003c/a>, sister bar to \u003ca href=\"http://tacolicious.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Tacolicious\u003c/a>, which boasts over 300 varieties of tequila, mezcal and \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sotol\" target=\"_blank\">sotol\u003c/a>.

It is quite strollable, charming, and easy to get around. Next time you're in Seattle, it's time to venture away from downtown into some of the Northern neighborhoods, and this is as good a place to start as any. When traveling, there's such an inclination to start with the main tourist sites (\u003ca href=\"http://spaceneedle.com/\">The Space Needle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/tour/carkeek.htm\">Carkeek Park\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/parks/environment/discovery.htm\">Discovery Park\u003c/a>,\u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/tour/locks.htm\"> The Ballard Locks\u003c/a>) and those things are all wonderful. But much like San Francisco, Seattle is a city built around its neighborhoods. Not many folks live right smack downtown and the neighborhoods offer such rich history, lively cafes, libraries, zoos, and new small businesses. It's time to branch out, and Greenwood/Phinney (or Phinneywood as its often called) is the best place I can think of to start. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Chocolati\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati2.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati2.jpg\" alt=\"chocolati interior\" title=\"chocolati interior\" width=\"560\" height=\"345\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39192\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>European-style Hot chocolate at Chocolati\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This local chain of chocolate shop/coffee bars opened in 2000 and now they have locations in Greenwood, Greenlake, Wallingford, and inside the \u003ca href=\"http://www.spl.org/\">Seattle Public Library\u003c/a>. I've fallen pretty hard for Chocolati, largely because of their cream truffles (made with fresh cream and dark or milk chocolate and very little else) and European-style drinking chocolate. They sell their hot chocolate in bulk to take home, and do traditional espresso drinks and drip coffee as well. The Greenwood location just got their beer and wine license, so it's also a nice mellow spot to come in the evening and wind down with a glass of Cabernet. During the day, Chocolati is, hands down, the best place in Greenwood to get a little reading or studying done: there is ample table space, good light, and a warm wintery ambiance that lends itself well to settling in with a book from the library across the street. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati.jpg\" alt=\"chocolati cocoa and truffles\" title=\"chocolati cocoa and truffles\" width=\"560\" height=\"560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39193\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Hot Chocolate and Truffles at Chocolati \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To visit: \u003ca href=\"http://www.chocolati.com/new/Locations-and-Hours.html\">Chocolati\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n8319 Greenwood Avenue North\u003cbr>\nSeattle, Washington 98103\u003cbr>\n(206) 783-7078\u003cbr>\nHours: Monday - Saturday: 7:30 am - 11:00 pm\u003cbr>\nSunday: 9:00 am-11:00 pm\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phinney Market\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/phinney-market.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/phinney-market.jpg\" alt=\"phinney market\" title=\"phinney market\" width=\"560\" height=\"430\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39224\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPhinney Market is the kind of place you wish would open in your neighborhood.

It is quite strollable, charming, and easy to get around. Next time you're in Seattle, it's time to venture away from downtown into some of the Northern neighborhoods, and this is as good a place to start as any. When traveling, there's such an inclination to start with the main tourist sites (\u003ca href=\"http://spaceneedle.com/\">The Space Needle\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/tour/carkeek.htm\">Carkeek Park\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/parks/environment/discovery.htm\">Discovery Park\u003c/a>,\u003ca href=\"http://www.seattle.gov/tour/locks.htm\"> The Ballard Locks\u003c/a>) and those things are all wonderful. But much like San Francisco, Seattle is a city built around its neighborhoods. Not many folks live right smack downtown and the neighborhoods offer such rich history, lively cafes, libraries, zoos, and new small businesses. It's time to branch out, and Greenwood/Phinney (or Phinneywood as its often called) is the best place I can think of to start. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Chocolati\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati2.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati2.jpg\" alt=\"chocolati interior\" title=\"chocolati interior\" width=\"560\" height=\"345\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39192\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>European-style Hot chocolate at Chocolati\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This local chain of chocolate shop/coffee bars opened in 2000 and now they have locations in Greenwood, Greenlake, Wallingford, and inside the \u003ca href=\"http://www.spl.org/\">Seattle Public Library\u003c/a>. I've fallen pretty hard for Chocolati, largely because of their cream truffles (made with fresh cream and dark or milk chocolate and very little else) and European-style drinking chocolate. They sell their hot chocolate in bulk to take home, and do traditional espresso drinks and drip coffee as well. The Greenwood location just got their beer and wine license, so it's also a nice mellow spot to come in the evening and wind down with a glass of Cabernet. During the day, Chocolati is, hands down, the best place in Greenwood to get a little reading or studying done: there is ample table space, good light, and a warm wintery ambiance that lends itself well to settling in with a book from the library across the street. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/chocolati.jpg\" alt=\"chocolati cocoa and truffles\" title=\"chocolati cocoa and truffles\" width=\"560\" height=\"560\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39193\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Hot Chocolate and Truffles at Chocolati \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To visit: \u003ca href=\"http://www.chocolati.com/new/Locations-and-Hours.html\">Chocolati\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n8319 Greenwood Avenue North\u003cbr>\nSeattle, Washington 98103\u003cbr>\n(206) 783-7078\u003cbr>\nHours: Monday - Saturday: 7:30 am - 11:00 pm\u003cbr>\nSunday: 9:00 am-11:00 pm\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phinney Market\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/phinney-market.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/02/phinney-market.jpg\" alt=\"phinney market\" title=\"phinney market\" width=\"560\" height=\"430\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-39224\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nPhinney Market is the kind of place you wish would open in your neighborhood.

More often than not, people get their hot chocolate fix from Starbucks or another coffee shop, spending about $3.00 a cup. For a family of four, this can add up -- especially if your kids are prone to dropping their to-go cups inches from the front door of the cafe, as mine are. The other problem with buying cups of hot chocolate is that the paper cups and plastic lids sabotage any attempt to really enjoy the full flavor and aroma of the drink. Worst of all, you either need to drink your tasty beverage on the go, or get it back home in the cold, only to find it’s lukewarm when you finally sit down to drink it. No. I have a primal need to warm up on a cold day with a steaming cup of hot chocolate -- in a real cup, in my favorite chair -- and so I need to make it at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I was in college, I was misinformed and poor, so we used Swiss Miss packets of cocoa. After dumping each pack in a cup of microwave warmed water, we would all settle down for what we hoped would be a delicious treat (which often included Peppermint Schnapps). I didn’t realize at the time that I was a foodie, but I did know one thing: those cups of cocoa were awful. If it weren’t for the Schnapps, I would have passed on the whole affair. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was only when I was an adult that I started to make real hot chocolate. I learned that there is a difference between hot cocoa and hot chocolate, and experimented with different cocoa powders and bittersweet bars, enjoying the results from both, but preferring hot chocolate. In case you’re curious, hot cocoa is made using cocoa powder, sugar, and milk, while hot chocolate is made with melted chocolate, sugar, and milk. For me, there’s just something about drizzling hot bittersweet chocolate into warmed milk that really satisfies both my hot beverage and chocolate cravings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years I topped my hot chocolate with either warm milk foam or whipped cream, which at the time seemed perfect.
