Ingredients

• 1 oz Dark chocolate (85%)
• 1/4 cup Walnuts

Steps

1. Break 1 oz of 85% dark chocolate into small squares — smaller pieces melt slower on your tongue, so you taste more.
2. Measure 1/4 cup of walnuts. If they taste a little stale, toast them in a dry skillet for 2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Arrange the chocolate and walnuts on a small plate rather than eating from the bag — it slows you down.
4. Eat one square with a walnut together; the fat in the nuts rounds out the chocolate bitterness.
5. Eat slowly and notice the flavors — this snack is about satisfaction, not volume.
6. Store chocolate in a cool, dark cupboard, not the fridge, where it can pick up moisture and odors.
