Overview

Known as the "Picasso of chocolatiers," Michael Recchiuti creates confections that are every bit as daring and original as any of his namesake's artworks. But unlike the painter, the chocolate maker has made it possible for even the amateur to achieve his artistry. In Chocolate Obsession Recchiuti, owner of the famed artisanal chocolate company in San Francisco, divulges his professional secrets and techniques, allowing home cooks to reproduce his exquisite confections in their own kitchens.

Opening with a complete discussion of chocolate from bean to bar, the book goes on to offer detailed instructions for dipped chocolates, truffles, and molded chocolates, including Recchiuti's signature ganache flavors: Earl Grey tea, burnt caramel, tarragon with grapefruit. Also featured are recipes for such sinfully delicious treats as Chocolate Shortbread Cookies with Truffle Cream Filling, Double Dark Chocolate Souffles, and Rocky Recchiuti Brownies. With more than 60 recipes in all, this book will satisfy even the most obsessive chocolate lovers among us.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
"And above all: think chocolate!" For millions of Americans, Betty Crocker's words are a clarion call. Chocolate is a harmless, relatively affordable obsession, an experience to be savored. Few have mastered its mysteries better than San Francisco-based confectioner Michael Recchiuti. Dubbed "the Picasso of chocolatiers," he has won legions of loyalists. (Even stern critic Mort Rosenblum's Chocolate singles him out for praise.) Recchiuti's first book, Chocolate Obsession, guides readers through the entire taste-enhancing process, from bean to bar. Its 60-plus recipes invite us into temptations like Chocolate Shortbread Cookies with Truffle Cream Filling, Double Dark Chocolate Soufflés, and Rocky Recchiuti Brownies.
