team red meets yogurt

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising. I admit: I’m in the middle of the characteristic spring tsunami cheered for by any food blogs at their pulse of life – it’s all about rhubarb, strawberries, asparagus, wild garlic … These are the main ingredients for any food – if cooked, if baked, if unprocessed – filling the recipes of food blogs at the moment. Ok – most of the bunch are seasonal. (I don’t buy any…

pumpkin #2: bread

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising.   You remember? I started w/ a big Hokkaido pumpkin which I baked in the oven – just adding some olive oil & salt & pepper. Afterwards I had a bowl filled w/ smooth pumpkin bits which could be mashed easily by help of a fork. My plan was … creating a sweet yeast braid w/ pumpkin mash mixed into the dough. Of course it didn’t work out as…

my 1st galette (w/ rhubarb)!

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising.   I’m always looking for easy & fast dishes … also dishes which can be prepared w/o using too many pots & pans & other kitchen equipment which need to be cleaned excessively later. So I admired the easy way of galettes for rather a long time – & now I decided to give it a try. For my 1st approach I chose a very simple galette w/ few…

Full stop.   When roaming food blogs last week – which are full of Xmas baking ideas at the moment (it’s like an avalanche overwhelming you) – I suddenly stumbled over a recipe for straightforward Spritzgebäck ……

bananas, bananas…

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising.   To begin with: a banana bread isn’t bread, it’s cake. At the end you get a juicy, soft cake w/ chocolate flavor & a hint of vanilla. (Ok – this time I didn’t add any more spices like cinnamon or so, nor did I shatter any nuts, nor did I think of any additional fruit or vegetables… to make all just a bit more fancy!)   For the…

winter cakes

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising.   Xmas is gone – all people think about how to lose weight & how to detox & how to… whatever. Before Xmas there were loads of recipes for cakes & cookies & all types of sweet stuff all over the food blog universe – although I didn’t post such a lot in the pre-Xmas Time. Now I think it’s time to look outside, take note of winter season,…

makeshift wannabe tiramisu

  We are on the Italian road again… you know: Omnes viae Romam ducunt! (So now you know that I learnt some Latin at school… in the spirit of my food blog it’s simply: go to Rome resp. Italy & you’ll learn about the best desserts ever!) Tiramisu: Imagine a (big!) rectangular casserole filled w/ ladyfingers soaked w/ espresso & fine liquor, covered w/ mascarpone cream finished by a thick layer of cocoa. You may indulge…
