Isn’t it funny how eating a dish can make you long to be in another place? Or another season even? Id you have a sunny desire – try this recipe: Pasta salad with tomatoes, watercress and burrata.
Eating yourself into another season
What are we eating tonight?
This illustration of carrots was the first I made, and finally have a recipe to use it with. It’s a lovely Summer-ly Buckwheat salad with peach and roasted carrots.
Glowing with culinary inspiration
The French dish Tian is a kind of a gratin but then upright. And without the potatoes. Oh, and I don’t do eggs in my gratin. Well, thankfully it is as great! Maybe because I put some lavender in it for a real Provençal feel?
My absolutely favorite summer pasta
As much as I love to tweak recipes to make them my own, there are a few that I simply cannot. This recipe Pasta Caprese is a classic and doesn’t need any changes.
A dinner party in the woods
Getting inspired by the recipes of Erin Gleeson from her Forest Feast Cookbook isn’t difficult. She presents her dishes in such a colorful way that you immediately want to run into your kitchen.
These zucchini cups are inspired on her way of cooking.
A zucchini with an identity crisis
Classic dishes are hard to call your own. But I’ve never seen anyone serving the classic Italian Pasta Carbonara in a zucchini like i did, so maybe this time it’s acceptable to do so.
Happiness at the Chinese supermarket
Where I lived before I moved to California, I was devoid from exciting new vegetables. In the big Chinese supermarket on my block I found two and made this Lemongrass flavored rice with edamame and pea shoots & grilled king oyster mushrooms.
A salvation for lacking cooking creativity
As experienced as a cook I am, every now and then I suffer from a lack of cooking creativity. One of my rescues is this Pasta with spinach and any soft cheese.
Starring at the Farmers Market
At the Farmers Market I got seduced! By bright yellow beans. I gave them the starring role in a refreshing Yellow bean salad with feta.
