Walnut buns

The last post was about the basic recipe for kanellbullar dough - the dough I use whenever I bake kanellbullars. Now it is time for a recipe for walnut bun.

Basic recipe: Kanelbullar dough

Kanelbullar is one of the most famous and popular Swedish pastries and was introduced in the 1920s. 1 year ago I baked pumpkin rolls and was so delighted with the dough that I'm used it every time I made cinnamon, nuts or poppy rolls. So today I publish in a separate article the basic recipe for the dough. More Kanellbullar recipes will then follow and they will always have this recipe as a base.

Sweet potato fries

I love sweet potatoes - as gratin, as chips or as French fries. They are a much healthier and tastier alternative to normal potatoes. At least this is my opinion, you don’t have to agree with me :). I didn’t bake until now with sweet potatoes but that is something I want to do in the future. But back to fries ... that's what I have for you today. I tried different recipes, but I was not very happy with the result. The sweet potato fries have always tasted good but they were not crispy. Rather muddy. Then I read on an American blog, that you cover the French fries with stiff egg white, then they remain crispy. I have tried this and the sweet potato fries were crispy. If you want to bake crispy sweet potato fries, here is the recipe.

Duck breast with potato gratin

As you know, I eat meat rather rarely. I usually do not cook with meat. Because now we have duck season and because my hemoglobin values are still low some days ago I cooked duck breast. As a side dish I prepared potato gratin. Very delicious, I can only recommend this recipe. If you want to try it, here is the recipe.

Spaghetti cacio e pepe

As you surely know, I was on holiday in September. The one who follow me on Instagram know that I was in Italy for 10 days. This time we went to Nervi and Tuscany. I have visited many nice places but also tried many delicious dishes. One of them was spaghetti cacio e pepe. A meal I did not know. My friend ordered it and I tried it also. And I fell in love...I think it was one of the best foods I have eaten during my holiday. Can you belive that you create something so delicious with so few ingredients? I then looked for the recipe and found it on my favorite Italian blog.
