HOMEMADE NUTELLA® (CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT SPREAD)
We were able to purchase fresh hazelnuts while in Portland last fall. This is one of the many ways to enjoy them. Hoping for a 'healthier' version of the store-bought variety, dark chocolate is used here with great results (for dark chocolate lovers) or it may be made with milk chocolate for the more traditional flavor.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Spread hazelnuts onto a baking sheet and roast in preheated oven until slightly browned and the skins are slightly blistered, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Spread a kitchen towel onto a flat work surface. Put the hazelnuts in the middle of the towel and wrap the towel around the nuts. Roll towel vigorously to strip the nuts from as much of the skins as you can remove. Discard skins and set nuts aside to cool completely.
- Put hazelnuts in a food processor and grind into a paste; add sugar, canola oil, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Continue to process the mixture until it is as smooth as you can get it.
- Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Pour chocolate into the food processor and blend into the hazelnut mixture. Use a spatula to transfer into a container with a tight-fitting lid, but cool completely at room temperature before sealing tightly.

CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT SPREAD (MOCK NUTELLA FROM GALE GAND)
Recipe courtesy Gale Gand. Keeps 1 month, covered, at room temperature. Try it on Recipe #328906. Some Nutella history: Chocolate and hazelnut is a classic taste combination in northern Italy, where it goes by the name of 'gianduia' (pronounced jon doo ya). Pietro Ferrero, a candy maker in Italy, blended the two into a spread in 1946, and the company that carries on its production says that Nutella has grown to become the best-selling sweet spread in the world.

Tips:
1. Select High-Quality Hazelnuts: The quality of your hazelnuts plays a crucial role in determining the taste of your hazelnut spread. Choose hazelnuts that are plump, smooth, and free of blemishes. Freshly roasted hazelnuts yield the best flavor. 2. Roast Hazelnuts Properly: Proper roasting enhances the flavor and aroma of hazelnuts. Roast them in a preheated oven for 10-15 minutes at 350°F (175°C) until they are golden brown and fragrant. Stir the hazelnuts occasionally during roasting to ensure even browning. 3. Remove Hazelnut Skins: After roasting, the skins of the hazelnuts can be easily removed by rubbing them with a clean kitchen towel. This step is optional, but removing the skins results in a smoother and creamier spread. 4. Use a Powerful Processor: A high-powered food processor or blender is essential for creating a smooth and creamy hazelnut spread. Regular blenders may not be powerful enough to grind the hazelnuts finely. 5. Add Sweetener Gradually: If you prefer a sweeter spread, add powdered sugar or honey gradually while processing the hazelnuts. Start with a small amount and adjust according to your taste preferences. 6. Store Properly: Once prepared, store the hazelnut spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze the spread for longer storage. Thaw it in the refrigerator before use.Conclusion:
Homemade hazelnut spread is a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed in various ways. Whether you spread it on toast, use it as a dip for fruits and crackers, or incorporate it into your baking recipes, the rich and nutty flavor of this spread will surely tantalize your taste buds. With just a few simple ingredients and a bit of patience, you can create a healthier and tastier alternative to store-bought hazelnut spreads. So, gather your ingredients, follow the step-by-step instructions, and indulge in the delightful experience of homemade hazelnut spread.
