Because the best storage temperature of chocolate is about 15 degrees to 18 degrees, and the temperature of refrigerator is between 2 degrees and 4 degrees. If you put chocolate directly into the refrigerator, because of the sugar and cocoa butter contained in chocolate, frost will appear on the surface of chocolate after a long time or it is caused by oil.
Not only does it lose its original mellow taste, but it is also beneficial to the reproduction of bacteria. Therefore, if you want to put chocolate in the refrigerator, you can keep it in a sealed and dry jar, or you can put it in the refrigerator after sealing it with plastic bags. When you take out the chocolate, don't open it immediately, let it slowly return to room temperature before eating.
Detailed introduction:
Chocolate originated from cocoa beans, which are the fruits of wild cocoa trees in the tropical rain forest of Central America. /kloc-More than 0/300 years ago, Maya Indians in Yoktan made a drink called chocolate from roasted cocoa beans.
Early chocolate was a greasy drink. Because the fried cocoa beans contained more than 50% oil, people began to add flour and other starch substances to the drink to reduce its greasy degree.
/kloc-Hernando Cortes, a Spanish explorer at the beginning of the 6th century, discovered in Mexico that the local Aztec king drank a drink made of cocoa beans with water and spices. Cortes brought it back to Spain on 1528 and planted cocoa trees on an island in West Africa.
The Spanish ground cocoa beans into powder and added water and sugar. After heating, this drink is called "chocolate" and is deeply loved by the public. Soon its production method was learned by Italians and soon spread all over Europe.
