Savory chocolate

---

---

Candy,cake,brownies,ice cream are some common uses for chocolate. Chocolate was first enjoyed by the mayans and aztecs of central America, and then by the europeans, particularly in countries like spain, portugal, and italy. It makes sense, then, that many savory chocolate dishes can be found in these cuisines, most commonly in their sauces.

Mexican moles are a good example of sauces that heavily feature chocolate.

Over in europe, an italian vinegar sauce callded agrodolce also uses chocolate, and is most often served with lamb and pasta.

Chocolate is being used in less traditional dishes. Many recipes follow the mexican idea of adding cocoa, which has a bitter flavor, to spicy dishse, but it has recently become very popular in america to cover salty bacon or potato chips in chocolate.

But it's also good news for chocolate lovers-as laiskonis says,"No matter what your mother may have told you, it's perfectly acceptable to eat chocolate for dier!"
