Hedy Goldsmith's Popcorn + Peanut Bark
A little earlier this afternoon we shared the details on the collaborative cookbook dinner that chefs Jeff Michaud and Hedy Goldsmith are hosting at Osteria on October 16th.
If you were on the fence about attending the dinner this recipe for Popcorn + Peanut Bark from Goldsmith's new cookbook Baking Out Loud is more than enough to push you over the edge. Plus she'll be serving it as part of her cookie plate next Tuesday.
Here's what Goldsmith has to say about this sweet and salty confection:
Bark, noun: Tough protective covering of the woody stems of trees.
Popcorn + Peanut Bark, noun: Delicious dark chocolate covering protecting buttery, salty, freshly popped popcorn and peanuts.
Bark, verb: Speak in an unfriendly tone when it's all gone.
POPCORN + PEANUT BARK
Makes 1 pound
12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, (preferably Valrhona Caraibe 66%), chopped
3 cups freshly popped popcorn
½ cup salted peanuts (preferably Virginia)
Pinch of kosher salt
1. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick liner.
2. Melt the chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over simmering water, stirring until the chocolate is melted and smooth, about 4 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and add the popcorn, peanuts, and salt. Fold the mixture until the popcorn and peanuts are evenly coated with the chocolate.
3. Scrape the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into a thin layer.
4. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until cold and firm. Break into small clusters and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
