Cooking raisins in chocolate glaze
1. Remove the grapes from the vine, place in a sieve and rinse under running water. Place on a paper towel and pat dry. If you come across unripe or damaged berries, then remove them.
2. Break the chocolate into pieces of any size and place in a deep container.
3. In a water bath (place the container with chocolate on a pot of boiling water so that the first one does not touch the boiling water) or in a microwave oven, melt the chocolate. Make sure that it does not boil, otherwise it will acquire a bitter taste. Dip the grapes into a soft chocolate mass and rotate them several times so that they are evenly covered with chocolate glaze on all sides. For this process, it is most convenient to string the raisins on a toothpick or skewer.
4. Put the glazed fruit on baking foil or parchment and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes. If time is short, you can put the dessert in the freezer for 5-7 minutes.
5. Serve the finished sweetness to the table. You can serve raisins in chocolate with a scoop of ice cream, freshly brewed coffee or tea.
