Well coming back to the swap. I swaped with Amy from Cavemom Lifestile and I sent her
Sea Buckthorn mustard. It is nice and really
strong mustard what is made by local little farm. I love it and I hope that Amy
can figure out what to do with it.
I got from her nice little parcel today 31st of
October... I have no idea why it took so long and I still wait one parcel from
US what was posted in 4th of October with DHL. I pray that I will receive it
and that it is not lost.
So as my little parcel came too late I am a bit
late with this post as well. I got nice coffee chocolate and nice bear bottle
honey. First I did not know what to do with it so quick. Normally I have few
days to think of it. But now I needed to act fast. So I decided to make
"Å¡okokaadi kisselli" well I try to translate it into English as well
Chocolate kissel.
When I was young it was our schooldays sweets.
Actually I did not take measurements how much of what I put in as it is just by
feeling and taste...
I took photos as well, but now my camera do not
communicate with PC, so I have no idea what is wrong as it did few days ago and
after that it just stopped communication. So as soon as I will get them
contacted again I will add photos as well. But meantime:
Chocolate kissel
I got PC and camera to talk again so here it is my result.
- almond or coconut milk
- coffee chocolate
- cocoa powder
(unsweetened)
- arrowroot starch
- honey
Pour milk into pot, add chocolate in and stir in
honey and let the milk to boiling point. If you will reach the sweetness stop
adding honey. Melt the chocolate in milk, if you reach darkness you like do not
add any cocoa powder, I like it more dark and bitter so I added 2 TS cocoa
powder into cup and added few tablespoons of hot milk to dissolve it and then
pored it into pot. Then dissolved the arrowroot starch in cold milk and added
it into mixture. Put it as much you like, if you like it thinner then less, if
thicker then more. I like it quite thick and I run out arrowroot starch (3 TS)
I had to add 2 TS potato starch as well. Heat it up to the thickness you like
and set aside. Serve it with sour jam - I used cowberry jam - just love it.
I love the result and so do kids. Hope that I will get the photos up as soon.
