Yes, I love panna cotta and today’s Coffee Panna Cotta is no exception.
Coffee Crema Catalana
Milk puddings and custards are definitely among my favourite desserts and this Coffee Crema Catalana is the perfect way to end your meal!
Sakura Panna Cotta
As you know, my family and I recently travelled to Japan for the second time in less than 3 years. We absolutely adore this country: its culture, its cities, its scenery and… its food. One of the the things we discovered this year was sakura, as a flavour I mean. I had no idea that…
Biancomangiare with Citrus Salad
Today’s recipe is all about Sicily. Last week I shared with you the recipe for Sicilian Almond Milk, a deliciously sweet drink. Besides drinking it plain, it also makes a great base for desserts like Biancomangiare. Biancomangiare (where bianco means “white” and mangiare means “to eat”) is a traditional Italian pudding and in its Sicilian version it…
Lemon Delight in a Jar
A few weeks ago, I have shared the recipe of Delizie al Limone (Lemon Delights), a typical Italian dessert from Naples and the Sorrentine peninsula, in the region of Campania. They are a beautiful and delicious dessert, but they are very time consuming to make. I had some of the Lemon glaze left in my…
Sooji Halwa – Rava Sheera
For the March Daring Cooks’ challenge, Ruth from Makey Cakey invited us to start the day with something filling, warm and nutritious. We got to experiment with different techniques and flavorings to create our own perfect personal porridge. As I said in my previous post about Sooji Kheer (an Indian semolina porridge), I am no porridge expert……
Sticky Date Pudding with Butterscotch Sauce
Sticky Date Pudding is the way Australians refer to he British Sticky Toffee Pudding. Regardless of the name, it is an amazingly delicious dessert. It is served everywhere in Australia, from top restaurants (in more or less revised versions) to the local pubs.
Molten Dulce de Leche Cakes
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Chocolate Budino with Strawberry Hearts #SundaySupper
This week’s Sunday Supper event is all about Valentine’s Recipes For Two! So all the bloggers taking part to this event will post recipes for two. Don’t you just love it? I think it is a very clever idea! Obviously, if you want to make one of the dishes for more people, you can simply multiply…
COUSCOUS PUDDING WITH CANDIED ORANGES
Couscous is a favourite at our home. Also my little ones love it, so I make it often. And I often have leftovers… actually, I confess… I make more on purpose to have leftovers. I love making all kinds of salads with it (see my Couscous and Herb Salad and Couscous, Olive and Orange Salad) and…
MOLTEN WHITE CHOCOLATE PUDDING
My husband doesn’t like chocolate. Or so he claims. No, wait. That’s not correct, he doesn’t like milk and dark chocolate… but he ADORES white chocolate. So, when I saw these little molten puddings, I knew I had found a recipe that would really please him. My kids and I have no problems with any…
CRÈME VIENNOISE CHOCOLAT
Today’s recipe is sinful. It is a chocoholic’s dream. So… my dream! While growing up in Italy, I would sometimes be treated to a “ready made” chocolate cream produced by a well known French company and it used to be my all time favourite snack! Well, this recipe is very close to that cream, only… it is better. …
GELO DI MELONE – WATERMELON JELLO
This is another traditional dessert from Palermo and it was included in the Sicilian Street Food New Year’s Eve Party I organised for this month’s Foodbuzz 24×24 event. I asked my aunts for my grandmother’s recipe and here it is. I still remember her making it during the hot summer months. It doesn’t take long and…
