Chocolate Fudge and my Childhood

By Julianne Newbold

Chocolate fudge tastes best when you enjoy it with your family. It gives an excuse for the family to spend time together and enjoy our addiction to chocolate.

Eating chocolate fudge this way reminds me of my childhood.

Every person has memories of growing up. Some of the memories are good, some are bad, still others may be sad.

The lucky person is able to hang onto the happy ones, forgive the bad ones and learn from the sad ones and move forward.

My family memories include trips we took as a family, holiday celebrations, and day to day events that I tend to repeat with my children. I realized recently that many of my memories are connected to food.

My mother was a good cook

I think the main reason for this is that my mother loved to cook. This is a passion that she passed on to me and that I have passed on to one of my son’s.

My mother prepared mainly comfort foods. These were the foods that my father preferred. Her specialties were pot roast, baked chicken, wonderful gravy and chocolate fudge.

After many years of trying I have finally mastered making gravy that is as smooth and rich as my mother’s. I have not been able to duplicate the chocolate fudge.

No matter how many times I try her recipe it seems that the texture is never right. Her chocolate fudge recipe includes boiling the ingredients and then beating the fudge by hand until it thickens.

Timing is essential for a good chocolate fudge

I have watched her do this hundreds of times, yet I cannot master the timing. If you cook the chocolate fudge too long it gets dry and hard. If you do not beat it long enough it is too soft to cut.

I have tried beating the fudge with a metal spoon, like my mother always did. I have tried wooden spoons, as well as electric mixers, and still most of the time the chocolate fudge has a grainy texture.

Chocolate fudge with marshmallow

When my son was learning about cooking he suggested we try a different fudge recipe. He found one that had marshmallow cream as an ingredient.

He followed all the instructions on the recipe and produced a creamy good tasting fudge that had a perfect consistency.

The chocolate fudge with marshmallow my son created was perfectly delicious. I didn’t realise he had such talent until I got to eat his chocolate fudge.

I enjoyed it so much that I did something that I haven’t done since my childhood. I licked my fingers.

Just buy the fudge from a shop

My son and my mother have pointed out to me that there are so many good fudge shops that I should just buy the fudge.

A couple of weeks later, I went to the shop and bought some chocolate fudge and shared it with my family. We had it as dessert after our main meal. It was wonderful and almost as good as my mothers’ chocolate fudge.

It is the time the family can spend together and enjoy chocolate fudge, is the times I treasure most.

Did You Know?

What are the kitchen basics I need?
Kitchen basics that every kitchen should have are pots and pans (in a variety of sizes), measuring cups, measuring spoons, mixing bowls and an assortment of kitchen gadgets that make life easier.

One of these gadgets is a can opener. Being forced to saw off the bottom of a can could take a little of the fervor away from cooking. Also consider keeping whisks, spatulas and tongs as part of your cooking basics.

Another item basic that is used often is a drainer/strainer. These can come in the form of bowls or be part of a boiling pan set. It is used to drain spaghetti water from the pasta or can be used for anything similar.
