I-VALENTINA VITOLS BELLO ingaphezulu komthandi wetshokolethi.Uyisazi - kakhulu ke, uye waba yi taster yetshokholethi eqinisekisiweyo kwiminyaka embalwa eyadlulayo.
Ukusukela ngoko, uye wabamba ukungcamla itshokolethi nabahlobo.Badibana, bangcamle itshokolethi kwaye bathelekise amanqaku njengoko ebaxelela ngemvelaphi yetshokholethi enikiweyo kunye neempawu.
Ukwenza ukunambitha, udinga i-tshokoleta, kwaye ufuna abahlobo abanomdla.Akuyomfuneko ukuba ube kwindawo enye.
Ndaye ndajoyina uValentina, ekudala ndimazi, kunye nabanye abambalwa kwinkomfa yevidiyo yakutshanje.
“Le yenye yezinto endiyonwabela kakhulu: ukwabelana ngetshokholethi nabantu,” utshilo uValentina.Ebengazimiselanga kuvumela i-lockdown imyekise.
Ngaphambi kokuba uValentina asindleke umsitho, wanxibelelana noLauren Adler, umnini kunye “nechocophile eyintloko” yaseChocolopolis, ivenkile yetshokholethi emnandi kwindawo yaseSeattle's Interbay.
Kolu ngcamlo, i-Adler idibanise iibhari ezikhethiweyo ezivela eMzantsi Melika.Umthonyama waseVenezuela, uValentina uyayithanda kakhulu itshokolethi evela kweli lizwekazi, apho iveliswa kwiifama ezincinci, eziphantsi kosapho, nganye ine-terroir yayo, imozulu kunye nencasa ekhethekileyo.
“Ndiyazi kuninzi lwabathengi bam abaqhelekileyo ukuba babamba incasa yetshokholethi njengeeyure zolonwabo kunye neendlela zokuhlangana nabahlobo,” utshilo.
Ubuye wasusa umngeni wakhe wonyaka we "Chocolate Sweet Sweet Sixteen" - abantu bazama imivalo emine ngeveki, kwaye ezimbini zihamba phambili ukuya kwisibiyeli esilandelayo de kube yintshatsheli ethweswe isithsaba-kwifomathi ye-intanethi kulo nyaka.
Inzuzo enye yokungcamla okubonakalayo kukaValentina: Unokubandakanya abahlobo eSan Diego naseAtlanta abaqhele ukungamtheleli kumsitho wobuqu.Into ekwakufuneka ayenze kukucela uAdler ukuba abathumelele iitshokolethi kwangethuba.
U-Adler uphinde wathumela ivili elinemibala echaza iincasa umntu anokuthi adibane nazo kwitshokholethi, kunye nekhadi lokungcamla lokungcamla esiligcwalise njengoko sasinkcunkca kwimivalo yasebusuku.
Siye sancokola ekuqaleni kwencoko - uninzi lwethu bebengekazani ngaphambili - kodwa sakuba siqalile ukungcamla, bekugxilwe kwitshokholethi.
Kwibha nganye, siye saqaphela imvelaphi (iitshokholethi ezininzi zobugcisa zinemvelaphi enye, oku kuthetha ukuba yonke itshokholethi ivela kwindawo enye), ukupakishwa, umbala kunye nokuthungwa kwebar, ivumba layo kunye nesandi esenziwa xa sahlukana. iqhekeza.Oko kwakungaphambi kokuba sithathe ikhefu.
Itshokholethi ayikuphela kobumnandi eyonwabisayo ukuyingcamla nabahlobo.U-Adler uye wadibana no-Alison Leber, aka i-Roving Cheese Monger (alisonleber.com), ukunika i-chocolate kunye ne-cheese tastings.Imimandla yewayini yaseWashington iseke iminyhadala ebonakalayo.Ezinye zazo zifuna ukuba uzifunele iwayini yakho.Abanye banemisitho ecwangcisiweyo.Abanye baya kukuthumelela ukhetho lwewayini kwaye bacwangcise ukungcamla kwabucala (jonga iiwebhusayithi zewinery nganye ngolwazi).
KuValentina, ukungcamla kufezekisa iinjongo ezimbini ngexesha elinye: ukwabelana ngezinto azithandayo, kunye nokungena nabantu abakhathaleleyo.
