In a unique collaboration, Christian Teubner, the master pastry chef and world-renowned food photographer; Sybil Grafin Schonfeldt, cultural historian of culinary practice; Silvio Rizzi, food writer and critic; Eckart Witzigmann, one of the most imaginative and original gourmet chefs; Karl Schuhmacher, teacher of master confectioners; and Leopold Forsthofer, a master confectioner, have combined their knowledge and skills to produce this definitive sourcebook with over 600 illustrations: The Chocolate Bible. The first chapter presents the general historical background of chocolate from pre-Columbian Mexico to the introduction of chocolate in Europe and America. This is followed by chapters on the production of chocolate and the techniques for working with chocolate. The heart of this beautiful book is devoted to over 150 step-by-step recipes and extraordinary color photographs for Chocolate Patisserie; Chocolate Candies; Chocolate Mousse, Ice Creams, Parfait, Puddings, and Souffles; Hot and Cold Chocolate Drinks; and Using Chocolate to Create Unusual Main-Course Dishes.
