"I prefer to regard a dessert as I would imagine the perfect woman: subtle, a little bittersweet, not blowsy and extrovert. Delicately made up, not highly rouged. Holding back, not exposing everything and, of course, with a flavor that lasts."
Graham Kerr (the Galloping Gourmet)


"The dessert crowns the dinner. To create a fine dessert, one has to combine the skills of a confectioner, a decorator, a painter, an architect, an ice-cream manufacturer, a sculptor, and a florist. The splendour of such creations appeals above all to the eye - the real gourmand admires them without touching them! The magnificence of the dessert should not allow one to forget the cheese. Cheese complements a good dinner and supplements a bad one."
Eugene Briffault

Gourmet Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

 

Ingredients

1 pt large strawberries with stems
8 oz ghirardelli sweet chocolate



 

Preparation

DIRECTIONS: Carefully rinse strawberries. Using paper towels, dry
berries thoroughly. Break chocolate into sections. Finely chop 5 of
the sections and reserve. Break remaining sections into double boiler
over 1" simmering water. Stir constantly until melted and smooth. (Do
not overheat.) Remove pan of chocolate. Add reserved finely chopped
chocolate, stirring until smooth. Melted chocolate should be thick
enough to hold a shape when stirred. Hold each strawberry by stem or
a fork. Tilt the pan and use a spoon to coat each berry with
chocolate. Hold each berry upside down to catch drips. Place in
fluted foil cupcake liners or on pan covered with plastic wrap. Chill
until firm or freeze a few minutes to serve immediately.
