Pesto rosso

Pesto rosso

Actually, I was planed to post another recipe today. But there have been several requests for the vegan tomato pesto, so I've decided to publish the recipe today. As I said, the recipe is vegan, it does not contain cheese or vegan cheese. But take a look at the recipe.

Tarte flambée with bacon, blue cheese and onion

Tarte flambée with bacon, blue cheese and onion

Whenever movie night is on my program there must be something to nibble/ eat. We talk here about snacks, popcorn, pizza or tarte flambée. That was the case a few weeks ago. I organized a cozy movie night and for this I baked a delicious tarte flambée with bacon, blue cheese and onion. The pictures were taken quickly (therefore, they are not so special) and after that I enjoyed the evening.

Basic recipe: tarte flambée dough

As I intend to share with you further tarte flambée recipes and I don’t want to write everytime the dough recipe, I thought I do a separate blog post just for it. That is all I have to say about this blog post :)

Zoodles

Zoodles


For the Tchibo blog event I wanted first to prepare zoodles. But my first attempt with the vegetable-spiral slicer did not work. I then asked if there is a trick for getting endless pasta and I got the answer. You have to place the zucchini in the middle...something that I have not done. But I have also learned that another blogger prepared a zoodle recipe, so I made the smoothie bowl for the blog parade. But zoodles I wanted to do anyway. So today I present to you my recipe. With pesto rosso. A dream. I will make zoodles more often from now on.

Green walnut jam

In the previous post I showed you how to make walnut liqueur. Today I have another recipe with green walnuts. The last year I have not only made the liqueur, but also a jam. I'm not 100% sure but I think that is a typical Romanian recipe. I have seen this jam only in Romania and when I asked friends from other countries, if they know the jam, they said no.

Guys, I just had a big shock! I just wanted to write the next blog post – I decided that it was time to post the recipe for walnut liqueur I made last year. But than I could not find the recipe. Actually I always write the recipes down. But I did not find anything. No mail with the text, not a link in the favorites, no text. Nothing. And then I panicked. How should I share the recipe of this delicious walnut liqueur with you, if I do not have the recipe? And then it occurred to me that I still have a recipe book where I write recipes. So I hoped to find the recipe there. And since you are reading this now, it means that I have found the recipe. That was close.

Fruit cake

Fruit cake

2 or 3 weeks ago, I saw in the supermarket nectarines. Although I knew I should not buy them because they will not taste, I still bought a 1 kilo. I arrived home and have enjoyable bitten in the first nectarine. How did it taste? It did not taste. The disappointment was huge and so I asked myself what I should do now with the nectarines. I then remembered the fruit cake recipe that I wanted to try for a long time. And so a couple of nectarines and a few other fruits that I had at home were used for this cake. The cake tasted so good and was so juicy. The fruits were very tasty…also the nectarines. The other half kilo was processed into jam (recipe will follow).
