This rub adds an unexpected, sophisticated flavor to your favorite grilled items the nibs offer a slightly nutty, earthy flavor with slight chocolate overtones. We call for a tri tip roast here, but skirt steak and flank steak work just as well.
This cocoa spice rub works especially well with lamb. Although the smell of this rub is quite chocolaty, the flavor on the grilled meat is very subtle.
Arnon Oren, our first executive chef, created this fresh, memorable dish.
For an intriguing appetizer, crush SCHARFFEN BERGER Roasted Cacao Nibs with a rolling pin and mix them into goat cheese. Use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of nibs for every ounce of goat cheese.
The flavors of olive oil and olives blend seamlessly with the flavor of roasted cacao nibs and each brings out the nutty savory qualities of the others.
Serve these beans as informal finger food or a plated first course. The prosciutto provides enough salt for the dish and the whole thing is most aromatic and delicious while still hot or warm.
These crostini are too simple for words! They make an irresistible appetizer, or snack and they're not bad for breakfast either.
