I love today’s recipe. These Sourdough Crêpes are very versatile and they taste so good!
Coca de Espinacas a la Catalana #TourDeManger
Today marks the start of a classic European bicycle race: The Tour De France. To celebrate this, Sarah and Tim from Curious Cuisiniere are hosting a fantastic event: Eating The Tour De France! The idea is to share a dish from one of the regions of the Tour de France race route and to post it…
Bosnian Burek
I grew up in Europe during the 90’s and the war in the former Yugoslavia was very close for us living in Italy. I had visited Croatia as a child, and looking at the terrible images coming from across the border would make me shiver. A few months ago, a friend of mine visited Bosnia…
Panettone Gastronomico
If you are one of MsM’s Newsletter subscribers, you may have noticed that today I was supposed to share a different recipe. The truth is I was not sure I would make it in time to work on this Panettone post as I made it for Christmas, but as it is something that Italians do…
Elsa’s Plait
I love savoury dishes much more than sweets, so I always make sure to have a few savoury options at parties as I know kids will need something more than sugary treats. I made this bread plait for Victoria’s Frozen party, to simulate Elsa’s long plait. It’s a soft bread filled with ham and mozzarella. …
Ficelle Picarde
Today I want to take you to France with a traditional dish: Ficelle Picarde. It is a dish from Picardy in northern France, consisting of a savoury crêpe filled with mushrooms and ham, covered with either cream or béchamel sauce and cheese and then broiled. It is pure comfort food, something I really need during…
PROSCIUTTO AND PARMIGIANO REGGIANO GOUGÈRES
I made these Gougères for my daughter’s birthday party and my husband said they were amazing. I really liked them too and I also liked the fact that they can be made in advance and frozen… I am always on the lookout for these kind of recipes when planning parties and get-togethers. I am not very…
CIAMBELLA RUSTICA – SALAMI AND SMOKED SCAMORZA BUNDT CAKE
The weather is getting warmer around here… this is the time of the year when I prefer to eat out. In a few weeks it will be too hot for my liking. So I try to enjoy this weather as much as I can! Today I am going to share with you the recipe for…
PORCINI, SPECK AND POTATO SAVOURY PIE
Today’s recipe is great in every season. The ingredients are perfect for the cooler months, but the fact that you can eat it cold (or at room temperature), makes it perfect for the warmer months too. I actually love to take this to picnics and barbecues when the season is right, but it is also…
AYRAN
After making home-made yogurt, I was left with quite a bit of whey and no ideas on what to do with it! Luckily, I asked my friend Sawsan from Chef in Disguise and she gave me the perfect recipe: Ayran. Ayran is a savoury yogurt and whey drink commonly found in the Middle East. I…
SOFT PRETZEL BITES
And 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. Each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a recipe from and in…
MUSHROOM AND ASIAGO CALZONI
The other day I had some Asiago cheese left in the fridge and while trying to figure out what to do with it, I stumbled upon this recipe. I also happened to have all the other ingredients, so I thought of trying it out for dinner. It was really tasty! I loved the contrasting flavours…
SOPAIPILLAS CON PEBRE Y PASADAS
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…
SAVOURY ZUCCHINI MUFFINS
I must confess that while I am (still) pretty successful feeding vegetables to my 2 year old, I more often fail with my almost 5 year old. She is such a fussy eater, so when I saw this recipe I could not resist it and made it immediately: it was a success! I LOVE savoury…
CASATIELLO
Today I want to share with you the recipe of what we ate yesterday. In Italy, the day after Easter is called “Pasquetta” and it is usually spent in the open air with family and friends. People have picnics in the city parks or go to the seaside or mountains for a day of fun…
