The Perfect Sushi Chocolate? Who Knew?!

Posted by fabricpile Sun, 04 Nov 2007 03:23:00 GMT

Another Saturday night, another bottle of wine, another round of Hei Sei Alaska Rolls, and another wonderful chocolate selection to round out the evening.

Vosges makes some pretty interesting exotic bars. I have a number of them tucked away for evenings just like tonight. The Black Pearl Bar has wasabi, ginger and black sesame seeds. I was skeptical, but other than the chocolate being a bit on the waxy side (especially for the price), it was really good.

The sesame seeds add a very subtle, crunchy texture, and the ginger gives the chocolate an interesting flowery flavor, but none of us could really detect the wasabi. We thought about smearing on some of our own, but that might have just been the wine talking.

This one is waiting on the chocolate shelf for its moment of glory. I just can’t decide what to pair it with. Any suggestions (besides fried eggs and hash browns)?
