Sweets: Thomas Keller Dark Citrus Chocolate

Dark chocolate from the kitchen of a chef whose name appears on more starred menus than is strictly reasonable. Single-origin cacao threaded with citrus, made in small batches with the kind of restraint that earned the dining rooms their reputation. The bar is dense and dark and not in a hurry. Ways to enjoy Broken into a small dish with a single espresso, after dinner. One square with an aged tawny port, or a glass of bourbon, late. Shaved over olive oil cake and finished with a pinch of flaked salt. Belongs with sweets and oils & vinegars, on the table that takes its dessert at the same pace as its first course. Single-origin dark chocolate with citrus. By Thomas Keller.
