I'm going to attempt this Make My Own Chocolate thing!

I bought another cacao pod at Saraga, and with the one from a couple of weeks ago, I managed to get 2/3 of a quart size mason jar filled, keeping some pulp (which reminds me in taste and texture of dehydrated apples) out to freeze for later baked goods.

First up, fermentation.

But here are a couple of beans I kept out, for funzies:


Two cacao beans - oblong with one end slightly narrower than the other. They appear to have many cracks in them. They are the color of, well, chocolate!

Update, I ate one of them - it was softer than I'd expected, but tasted just like unsweetened chocolate. (Who'dve thunkit?)
