I am back in Sydney, after a few weeks travelling around Japan and Italy! Hopefully you have followed my adventures on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram! I had an amazing time, visiting beautiful places, meeting family and friends and tasting awesome food! I will be sharing some of these adventures and photos in the next few…
Gyoza
I love potstickers and Japanese Gyoza – 餃子(ぎょうざ) are my absolute favourite! I love the crunchy skin and the soft and tasty filling.
Kitty Cat Doughnuts
I saw these on the internet while searching for ideas for my 5 year old’s kitten themed birthday party. Apparently these Kitty Cat Doughnuts are quite popular in Japan. So I set on a mission to replicate them at home. I have a little confession to make. I don’t like doughnuts. Or so I thought. …
Yakitori
Lately I have been on a bit of a Japanese food bender. I am discovering more and more dishes, and the more I discover, the more I love Japanese cuisine! There’s so much more than sushi (which I love too!). I had heard a lot about Yakitori – 焼き鳥, but I had never eaten them…
Green Tea Latte #SundaySupper
This week Sunday Supper is turning “green” in honour of St. Patrick’s Day. We will be sharing recipes for green foods from beverages all the way to desserts (and everything in between), so make sure to check out all the links at the end of this post! So, green it is and what’s greener than…
SALMON NIGIRI
I have discovered sushi only in recent years. Growing up in Italy, it wasn’t something I had great exposure to. Now Japanese food (and sushi above all) has become very popular in Italy, but it is really expensive. Australia instead is full of sushi bars and amazing Japanese joints, so eating sushi has become much…
SPICY TUNA SALAD SUSHI ROLL
So here you have it. My first sushi roll ever. I decided to go the easy way and make a tuna salad roll as a first attempt and boy was it good! It is really easy and fast to make and it tastes delicious. You can make it as spicy (or as mild) as you…
SUSHI RICE
I have been wanting to try and make sushi at home ever since I started blogging, but for one reason or another, I always postponed this project. Since my eldest daughter started school, I have so little time to dedicate to the kitchen and with the days getting shorter, I leave all the “important” cooking…
SWEET SUSHI
I have been wanting to make sweet sushi for a while now! I always thought that it looked great. My daughter’s birthday party was the perfect occasion as it was a “sea themed” party. I have to say that this was probably the most successful dish of the buffet as it did look quite real and impressive,…
BRAISED PORK BELLY WITH CARAMEL MISO SAUCE
The March, 2012 Daring Cooks’ Challenge was hosted by Carol, a/k/a Poisonive – and she challenged us all to learn the art of Braising! Carol focused on Michael Ruhlman’s technique and shared with us some of his expertise from his book “Ruhlman’s Twenty”. Ohhh how I loved this challenge! I must admit I have loved…
GREEN TEA ICE CREAM – MATCHA ICE CREAM
I have always wanted to try a sweet made with matcha. I really like its intense green colour, I think it is so pretty. So when I saw the recipe for matcha ice cream at my friend Nami’s beautiful site Just One Cookbook, I thought that was going to be the perfect way to try…
