                                                            If a double boiler is not available, here’s
                                                            a fix. Half-fill a saucepan with water.
                                                            Heat over medium heat until water
                                                            begins to steam. Place a metal or
                                                            glass bowl over the simmering water.
                                                            Remember to use an oven mitt to

                                                            in the bowl. The melting begins.
