Earl Grey Bar

The Earl Grey Bar. A classic layered situation. Preserved orange caramel made with California organic blood oranges we saturate with sea salt and let preserve for months & months, then a layer of earl grey tea-infused ganache—a little tart, mega fragrant with black tea and vibrant bergamot—slathered over the caramel. Slab it, slice it, enrobe it in 65% dark chocolate, garnish with a good smattering of (usually homegrown, unless it's been a bum year) edible flower petals. OK. A gem!!

IF you make this recipe from our cookbook IT'S A LIL SCREWY. My shame is endless. The chocolate that says "for dipping" is the chocolate you stir into the recipe at the end, ignore "for dipping." The last line in the ingredients should be "tempered chocolate, see page 17." In step 6, change "temper the chocolate" to "temper chocolate" (small but vital).
