In this episode, we’re cracking open the fascinating world of cacao and cocoa! While they come from the same tree, their journeys from bean to ingredient are quite different. Join us as we explore the raw beginnings of cacao, its transformation into cocoa, and the rich history behind these magical beans—dating back over 5,300 years to their origins in the Amazon.
Discover how cacao fueled ancient Mesoamerican cultures, became a currency for the Aztecs, and grew into a global industry centered in West Africa. We’ll delve into the health benefits and risks of cacao and cocoa, including their role in reducing inflammation, improving heart health, and even boosting your mood.
Ever wondered about the difference between dark, milk, and white chocolate? Or why some recipes call for cacao powder over cocoa powder? We’ve got the answers, plus tips on how to incorporate these ingredients into your daily diet.
Thank You for listening and Stay curious,
