After showing you how to make your own puff pastry, today I will show you one of the hundreds of recipes that you can make with it: Mille-feuille, also known as Vanilla slice or Napoleon.  This is a classic French recipe, that is known all over the world and has been adapted many times over. …

Bomboloni alla Crema

Bomboloni alla Crema

Happy Mardi Gras everyone!  As promised in my last post about Ravioli di Carnevale, I am back with yet another delicious treat that is perfect to make and eat this time of the year: Bomboloni alla Crema – aka Italian doughnuts filled with pastry cream.  To be truthful, Italians eat Bomboloni all year round, but…

Pineapple Tarts

Tomorrow we celebrate the Chinese New Year: 新年快乐!  This is going to be the Year of the Horse… I have read that people born in the Year of the Horse are clever, kind and energetic… they sometimes talk too much, but are cheerful, talented and love to be in the centre of a crowd.  2014…

PAIN AUX RAISINS

Remember that a few months ago I shared with you the recipe of how to make the perfect French Croissants?  Well, today I am back with another French breakfast classic: Pain aux Raisins.  During my frequent Parisian visits as a child, I would always have pain au chocolat for my breakfast, while my parents would…

CARAMELISED RED ONION AND TALEGGIO PASTRIES

As you know, cheese is probably my favourite food.  I like all kinds of cheeses and I often eat them plain, with bread or crackers for lunch… but I also love to cook with them and make all sorts of savoury and sweet dishes.  Today’s recipe is utterly delicious: I find it simply irresistible!  I…

Ricotta filled Graffe

RICOTTA FILLED GRAFFE

Today’s recipe comes from the Sicilian town of Trapani, where my mother was born.  These are similar, but not the same as the more famous Neapolitan graffe, the dough of which includes potatoes.  Graffe in Trapani are like doughnuts, fried and then filled with the same sweet ricotta filling used for Cannoli, Sfinciuni di San…

Croissants

CROISSANTS

In a “celebration” of past Daring Cooks and Daring Bakers challenges, Lisa challenged all of us to search through the Daring Kitchen archives and pick any one we’d like! The REAL challenge was picking which delicious recipe(s) to try! I must confess I was out-of-this-world-happy with this month’s challenge.  And so much so as it…

Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies

CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE BROWNIES

Chocolate. Cheesecake. Brownies.  Yes, you read that right.  They are 3 treats that I love on their own, so when I saw this recipe over at my friend Lizzy’s That Skinny Chick Can Bake! I knew these brownies would taste amazing.  How awesome is it to combine three scrumptious desserts into one??  What you get…

Pesche Dolci alla Siciliana

PESCHE DOLCI ALLA SICILIANA

I am very excited about today’s recipe.  I am taking you all back to Sicily for this Regional Italian dish… a very special one.  These are among my favourite Sicilian pastries.  They are not as famous as cannoli, but they are just as delicious.  The filling is in fact the same sweet ricotta filling of…

Sicilian Cannoli

SICILIAN CANNOLI – CANNOLI SICILIANI

This is the recipe of cannoli (well, my family’s recipe!). It’s a traditional dish from Sicily and it requires very specific ingredients that are sometimes hard to find abroad… there are many Sicilian migrants here, so l am lucky enough to find almost anything. If you can’t find ricotta cheese, you can try and substitute…
