Strawberry Milk
My daughters love Strawberry Milk. They still call it “pink milk” like when they were little and it is their favourite drink. As strawberries are in season here in Australia, I thought of making it at home. The result was amazing so, even though this is quite a simple recipe, I thought I should share…

Banana Milk
Today’s post is a special one. The recipe itself is so easy that I am not even sure it could be passed on as a “recipe” per se, but it is my eldest daughter favourite treat and she insisted I “put it on the blog”… so here it is. When I was a child, my…
Sicilian Almond Milk
Cool, creamy, and naturally sweet, Sicilian Almond Milk is a classic worth making at home. It’s summer-ready and especially enjoyable straight from the fridge.
Thandai
Today, Indians celebrate Holi, the festival of spring, also known as the festival of colours.

HOME-MADE RICOTTA
A few months ago, my friend Sawsan from Chef in Disguise challenged the Daring Cooks to make our own cheese. She gave us a few recipes for cheese and at that time I chose to try my hands at making Chèvre. On the side though, I tried to make ricotta as well and I was…

WHEY PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY MAPLE SYRUP
As promised, today I will show you another way to use up all the whey you have sitting in your fridge after making Greek style yogurt. If you have any more after making Ayran that is! I did a bit of research online on how to use whey and I read that it is often…
HOME-MADE YOGURT
A couple of months ago, my friend Sawsan from Chef in Disguise posted a beautiful tutorial on how to make home-made yogurt. Since I saw it, I knew I had to give it a try too! This was my first time at making yogurt, but I remember my mum making it often when I was…

Warm, creamy sauce and tender flakes of fish make Baccalà alla Vicentina a dish that feels slow-cooked and comforting, especially when paired with soft, spoonable polenta.
MAIALE AL LATTE – PURCIT TAL LAT
This week’s Regional Italian recipe takes us to Friuli – Venezia Giulia, Italy’s most North-Eastern region that borders with Austria and Slovenia. This region has been a part of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire for many years and thus has many cultural and culinary similarities with the other regions and Nations of the area. It is a region that…
PANINI AL LATTE – MILK PANINI
I guess we all have memories of our childhood birthdays… I was born in February which is often the month of Carnevale in Italy, so I used to have dress up birthday parties. It was a lot of fun. There would be games, prizes, music and lots of laughter! If I think back about the…
BANANA, PEAR AND GINGER SMOOTHIE – ANOTHER AWARD AND A PIECE OF NEWS
After a delicious but calorie laden sweet, I thought of posting a healthy but just as tasty treat. This simple and sugar free smoothie used to be my afternoon snack when I was child. Well, to be honest my mom would not put ginger in it (this is my own twist to the recipe) as…
