Home-made Ketchup

Home-made Ketchup

And here I am with another one of my DIY projects. Only, this one is really easy. Did you know that making ketchup at home only took 20 minutes? And it is as easy as stirring all the ingredients together and put the pot on the stove. That’s it. It probably takes longer for it…

Home-made Crema di Limoncello

Home-made Crema di Limoncello

Today I am back with another one of my favourite home-made liqueur recipes: Crema di Limoncello. We could call it Limoncello’s little brother as this is basically the creamy version of Limoncello, made with cream and milk.  It is smooth, sweet, lemony and simply irresistible!

Home-made Limoncello

Home-made Limoncello #SundaySupper

So, the #SundaySupper is celebrating the arrival of spring.  Obviously, as we are in the Southern hemisphere, this sounds a bit weird… as for us autumn has just begun, but I do love spring… and I also happen to have the perfect recipe for the event!

Hot Tea Smoked Salmon

Hot Tea Smoked Salmon

I must confess that I do not watch much TV.  I used to watch many cooking shows before having kids, but nowadays… they “own” the remote.  If the TV is on and the girls are home, they will chose what to watch.  The weird thing is, I do not mind too much.  There’s only one…

Home-made White Chocolate Liqueur

Home-made White Chocolate Liqueur

Italians like to make things at home.  This includes tomato sauces and preserves, pasta, sausages and smallgoods and, of course, liqueurs.  Home-made things are better on so many levels.  For one thing, you know exactly what went into your food and then everyone knows that food prepared with love always tastes better.  I have always…

Home-made Mascarpone

HOME-MADE MASCARPONE

Today I want to share a little secret with you: mascarpone is probably the easiest cheese to make at home.  Really.  Anyone can make it and it only requires 2 ingredients: cream and lemon juice.  I usually buy mine at the grocery store, but I must confess I am not totally happy with the mascarpone…
