I melt the chocolate with a method that we called “ bagno maria” In this method, the chocolate is either broken, grated, or cut in pieces, melted over hot, simmering water, in a double boiler. A double boiler is a specialized set of pans consisting of a saucepan that holds hot water, and a bowl that fits securely over the saucepan. Chocolate is placed in the top bowl and allowed to melt over gentle, indirect heat. If you don’t own a double boiler, any metal or glass bowl that fits snugly over the top of a saucepan can be used.
