How to combine chocolate and garlic in the same dish? - Chocolate Crepes with Fruit in Pan

I hosted a potluck dinner some years ago, and I set the theme as "chocolate or garlic" -- guests were to bring one or the other. One person was a wiseacre and bought chocolate covered garlic. (It was hideously unpalatable.)

I've since wondered if there's any way to combine chocolate and garlic in the same dish where you taste both, or if the two flavors are simply incompatible.



Best Answer

Sure! Most recipes for the darker Oaxacan moles will include both cocoa powder and garlic.
