nutella spread

It tastes bloomin' fantastic.

But why o why is it so tough? Good luck trying to spread it on non-toasted bread without ripping it to bits

Keep it by the radiator

Stick it down your pants for half hour.

Ermm...

think i'll go down the radiator route if anything

Maybe before going to bed at night i'll do this ready for central heating to come on at 6AM - nice and soft for making sandwiches before work

I saw a recipe the other day, you make little rolls of filo pastry filled with nutella, I bet they're good.

if you use a knife warmed in hot water it spreads much easier

just don't keep it in the fridge!

15 second blast in microwave, just make sure all the foil bit is off first

If you're using it to dip pretzels into it doesn't matter that it's a bit more solid, so I suggest using it for that instead

Keep the foil on for entertainment :rotfl:

To answer the question, it's because it contains a lot of oil and the consistency of oil various from that of water at high temperatures to that of solid wax a low. Different oils exhibit different properties at different temperatures, of course.
