Grater for chocolate chips - application

Choose a couverture or even your favorite chocolate and melt it over a water bath or in a tempering device. It would be best if the couverture is tempered, but this is not mandatory for chocolate chips. Neither the untempered couverture nor melted chocolate bars should be heated above 40 °C for this application. Once all the chips have dissolved, pour the chocolate into the plastic mold. Fill each well completely, you can also use four different chocolates or couvertures at once. For example, pour dark colored white and milk couverture and use your favorite chocolate for the last well. Freshly filled, the plastic mold is placed in the refrigerator.

After 45 minutes to an hour, the bars should be well cooled. Turn the mold over and move it slightly until the chocolate releases. Especially with untempered couverture and regular chocolate bars, the bars may stick a bit in the mold. If they do not loosen even after long cooling and moving, you can slightly warm the plastic with a hair dryer or a little warm water. The so slightly melted bars loosen and can be put again briefly in the refrigerator.

Detach the transparent container from the green part of the grater, to do this, simply pull gently on all sides until it comes off completely. Then turn the green square all the way up and assemble two chocolate bars underneath. Pinch them in place with the green square and put the container back on top. Now the lid can be removed and the shirring can begin. Hold the shirr over your cake, a dessert or a bowl and turn the clear container. This way, the chocolate bars are pressed down and shirred, and homemade chocolate chips adorn your creation.
