Preparing Chocolate Curls



1) Melt the chocolate and beat with a spoon until smooth and shiny.

2) Pour the melted chocolate onto a flat surface.

3) Using a palette knife, spread out the chocolate until about 3 mm (1/8 inch) thick. Leave to cool until firm but not brittle.



4) Holding the blade of a knife at an angle, scrape up curls of chocolate.
