Servings: 1

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (either chocolate chips or a chocolate bar)

6 ounces white chocolate (either chocolate chips or a chocolate bar)

1 tablespoon orange zest, plus a little for sprinkling on top

1/4 cup shelled pistachios in halves or roughly chopped

1/4 cup dried cranberries roughly chopped

Equipment:

frying pan

baking paper

baking sheet

microwave

bowl

skewers

knife

Cooking instruction summary:

In a dry pan, lightly toast the pistachio nuts then set aside to cool. Line a 9 by 10-inch cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Melt the semi-sweet and white chocolate simultaneously in separate double boilers or one at a time in the microwave (in a medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave the chocolate until melted, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating). While the semi-sweet chocolate is melting add a tablespoon of orange zest. Once both chocolates are melted, pour the semi-sweet chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and smooth out into a rectangle then drop spoonfuls of the melted white chocolate on top. Use a wooden skewer or the tip of a knife to swirl the two chocolates together until you are happy with the swirled design. Sprinkle the pistachios and cranberries over the swirled chocolate then sprinkle a little more orange zest on top and allow to cool at room temperature for approximately two hours or until the chocolate is hard and can be broken or cut into pieces to serve. Break or cut the chocolate bark into 1 by 3 inch pieces and serve at room temperature.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
