			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Commercial establishments selling chocolate confections have found an ally in chocolate tempering machines. One, these countertop gadgets have microchips that direct the tempering cycle and keep temperatures within correct ranges automatically. Two, these appliances make holding chocolate tempered all night for next day use possible. </p>
<p>The fact is, however, chocolate craftsmen still choose to <a href="http://www.chocolatetempering.org/">temper chocolates through tabliering</a> as these handmade confectioneries secure a comfortable niche for them in an industry that&#8217;s worth several billions of dollars. </p>
<p>Originally from France, tabliering necessitates cooling chocolate mushthe melted chocolateon an endothermic top, typically a marble slab. </p>
<p>Keeping the chocolate free from water should be foremost in your mind when you commence tabliering. Water in your chocolate will cause it to seize, a condition wherein chocolate congeals into a useless lump, making shaping it impossible. Seizing also occurs when chocolate is burnt while melting or is exposed to rapid temperature changes. </p>
<p>To begin, cut one pound of chocolate with a serrated knife into small pieces. Put the strips onto the upper pan of a double boiler and place on medium heat. To prevent scorching, gently blend the chocolate with a spatula until it has completely melted. With a reliable thermometer, make sure that the chocolate mush is within the 108-115F melting range. Pour the chocolate mush onto a mixing bowl, being careful to keep the bottom of the heating pan free of moisture. At this stage, the chocolate mush should be runny and free of clumps. </p>
<p>Work with 2/3 of the mush first with a dry spatula, spreading it across the marble slab and folding it until it reaches a cooled down temperature of 80-82F. But don&#8217;t get distracted while doing this and make sure the other 1/3 of the chocolate stays warm at a temperature of 100F or it&#8217;ll quickly congeal if it loses heat rapidly. </p>
<p>After 10 minutes or so, gradually mix in the other third of the chocolate mush. Reheat the chocolate to appropriate temperatures: white at 82-84 F, semi-sweet at 86-88 F, and dark chocolates at 88-90 F. You&#8217;ll know you&#8217;ve been successful tempering when you coat the knife end in the mush and it becomes a hard, glossy shell around it. The chocolate is then ready for dipping or molding. </p>
<p>Every now and again, pause from dipping and molding and check if the thermometer still reflects proper tempers; otherwise, you&#8217;ll need to re-temper the chocolate. You can keep the tempered mush sitting over a heat pad covered with a towel or a covered bain-marie so that the chocolate temper can keep longer. </p>
