Blogging is an international thing I understand, but I still want to extend a happy thanksgiving day to everyone that’s reading this and celebrated turkey day. And yes, I did 🙂 I cooked something on this wonderful holiday, and I will be posting in the upcoming days. I really want to post about the zebra […]
Pearl onions are more of a summer treat, but I love them and I thought they’d go well with this dish. Brussels sprouts are beautiful and iconic around this time of the year and so are golden beets, they are simply delicious and beautiful, they are a little more delicate in flavor than their red […]
Nothing more soothing and relaxing than roasting a chicken, right? throw the thing in the oven, when house smells of goodness, 45 minutes later, remove and a marvelous deep golden browned chicken graces the dinner table with its presence. But it isn’t that simple, is it? Chickens and ovens are in my opinion a terrible […]
Yet Another pumpkin soup recipe. I know. The least original thing I could have come up with but it’s fitting right around this time of the year and I like it, so I made it and wanted to share it with you as well, in case you haven’t tried making it. It is really easy […]
This classic upside-down apple french tart, although a bit challenging to make, it is extremely rewarding and perfect dessert for the upcoming holidays. Or if you’re like me, a perfect dessert period. Hope you won’t need the usual holiday-only-too-time-comsuming-I-need-motivation excuse to make it because it is really fun. It does take time, but you can […]
It might seem as if meat is the only thing featured on this blog. What’s wrong with that? 🙂 no, seriously, I will make an effort to bring more vegetable centric dishes to this site. I want to write about the beautiful produce available in the region and I also want explore seafood more extensively, […]
I get the feeling tripe isn’t everyone’s favorite, right? We’re talking about the honeycomb membrane that covers the interior of the second stomach of a cow, the reticulum to be more precise (I just googled all of that ok). After that… most readers have probably already left. If you’re still there, well great! It means […]
For the trained eye, those adept at baking and pastry making (hopefully not, because I need some encouragement here but I’m ready and could use some constructive criticism), this tart will show some basic execution flaws, like the walls aren’t thin enough or tall enough, and the filling doesn’t reach the edge of the crust […]
This simple soup for me was about minimizing waste and trying to make something tasty out of ingredients I can’t seem to find a use for sometimes. I’ve been staring at these 2 artichokes sit at the bottom of my refrigerator for almost a week, pathetic, but can’t get myself motivated enough to cook them […]
Full on autumn weather. I don’t have much to say today as an intro for this post (must be this weather…) but I want to share this recipe because it is so wonderful and comforting. It’s a classic combination of ingredients you’ll find in many cookbooks and recipes online. That won’t stop me from uploading […]
