There was a chill in the air, a little snow on the ground and plenty of hot chocolate. About 43,000 pounds of the sweet, powdery treat. It was a disaster for emergency crews who worked Monday trying to clean up the odd spill on Interstate 79 near Elkview: piles and piles of smoldering powdered cocoa. The cocoa caught fire after the tractor-trailer hauling it flipped, spilling its load all over the interstate. The powder smoldered for hours as fire crews blasted it with water and foam, turning some of the cocoa into sludge and sending some more up into a reddish-brown cloud. A foam- dispensing fire truck from the 130th Airlift Wing at Yeager Airport was called in to help put out the hot spots in the cocoa. The entire wreck scene and most of the emergency workers there were coated in the ...
In a medium saucepan, bring evaporated skim milk to a boil, stirring occasionally. Stir in sifted cocoa powder, sugar, and chocolate. Using a whisk, mix until smooth. Gently stir in vanilla and gelatin mixture. Pour into a large bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
An early morning tractor-trailer wreck closed Interstate 79 southbound near Elkview for several hours on Monday. The 2000 Volvo tractor was hauling a load of cocoa powder south about 4:20 a.m. when the driver apparently lost control around near the Elkview exit, said Sgt. R.B. Lilly of the Kanawha County Sheriff's Department.
Is it OK to get your daily chocolate fix from cocoa powder instead of part of a candy bar? Like maybe mix it with a little stevia and some hot water and drink it? You have hit on a great idea. In fact, it comes far closer to the original way that ancient cultures used chocolate. They drank cocoa without sugar. The stevia you will be using to sweeten your drink doesn't have calories so it won't contribute to weight gain. Cocoa powder, unlike a chocolate bar, has very little fat, but it has the same antioxidant compounds.
Up your flavor game Coffee lovers and hazelnut fans will enjoy stirring these flavors into frosting, cakes and cookies, thanks to McCormick, which has added pure coffee and imitation hazelnut to its line of extracts. We liked how they added subtle accents to a white cake mix and basic buttercream frosting. With a bit of unsweetened cocoa powder added to the frosting, it became guilty pleasure. Suggested retail price for a 1-ounce bottle is $4.69. At supermarkets nationwide and shop.mccormick.com.
Nothing says Happy Valentine's Day like chocolate. This is evident in the ads for chocolates of every description this week. If you have been shopping in the past two weeks, you have seen displays of chocolates in heart-shaped boxes. Heart cookies and cakes abound. And ice cream cakes are suddenly shaped like hearts. Anything edible seems to suddenly be sweet and in a heart shape, and much of it is chocolate. For many years, I have used a mold to form a chocolate greeting card. I learned many years ago to add some crushed cereal so the greeting card did not weigh so much. I felt I also was reducing the calories. This week, I searched for recipes for some good brownies to share with you for this special occasion. I have hundreds of brownie recipes, as there are two or more variations in ...
Springboarding from last week's Road to Fitness column, on how lifestyle choices can affect memory and brain function, today I'll look at how what we eat and drink can help to boost memory. The Alzheimer's Diet," written by Harvard-trained neurologist Richard S Isaacson, M.D. and Dr Christopher Ochner, reveals their list of top 10 great memory foods: fish, berries, seeds/nuts, green leafy vegetables, cocoa powder, legumes, grape juice (no sugar added), curry, black or green tea, and dark skinned fruits.
Panna cotta is one of those great desserts that you can make ahead of time. It's quick and easy and can be served in any pretty glass. When I make this recipe, I always have mixture left over, and I pour the extra into small ramekins. You can pour this into coffee cups or espresso cups for a really fun presentation. Panna cotta means "cooked cream" in Italian and is an adaptable recipe; it can be flavored with just about anything. If you want to leave out the cocoa powder from this recipe, you can add vanilla bean and have vanilla panna cotta. Or, add a touch of honey or a little pureed blueberries. You really can flavor it any way you like.
On a recent trip to Cincinnati, I tasted for the first time Skyline Chili, that aromatic, dark brown bastion of Cincinnati cuisine ladled with abandon over spaghetti or hot dogs or simply into bowls, then heaped or not heaped with beans, shredded cheese, diced onion, oyster crackers and hot sauce. Skyline was founded in 1949 by Nicholas Lambrinides, a Greek man who had immigrated in 1992 to America from Kastoria, Greece. His secret meat sauce recipe, now known as Skyline Chili, is a blend of traditional Greek flavors: beef, tomatoes, cinnamon, cloves, onion, garlic and other spices. One exotic touch we are sure of is a dab of chocolate or cocoa powder, but the exact recipe remains unknown.
The name says it all. This "Died and Went to Heaven" Chocolate Cake is one of my favorite cake recipes to whip up for guests. Why? This easy-to-make chocolate cake is dark, moist, rich -- and dirties only one bowl. It's not quite as easy as box-cake mixes, but those often contain trans fats. People always are pleasantly surprised when they sink their teeth into this rich and moist chocolate dessert that contains a mere 139 calories per serving. The secret lies in the ingredients: the simple "from-scratch" recipe gives you a home-baked cake with healthful canola oil and whole-wheat flour. Cocoa powder delivers rich chocolate flavor without adding too many calories, and nonfat buttermilk keeps it moist without adding tons of fat.
