Melting chocolate seems simple, but it can easily seize or burn. Master these techniques:

**Double-Boiler Method**:

1. Fill a saucepan with 1 inch of water and bring to a simmer.

2. Place chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl over the pot (ensure the bowl doesn’t touch the water).

3. Stir constantly until melted (65–70% cocoa chocolate melts at 115°F/46°C).

**Microwave Hack**:

1. Chop chocolate into even pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl.

2. Microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.

**Rescue Seized Chocolate**:

- Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or hot cream and stir gently to emulsify.

**Pro Tips**:

- **Tempering**: For glossy, snap-able chocolate, temper by cooling melted chocolate to 82°F (28°C), then reheat to 88°F (31°C).

- **Flavor Boost**: Stir in espresso powder, orange zest, or sea salt.

- **Storage**: Keep melted chocolate in a warm water bath (under 90°F/32°C) to maintain fluidity.
