Let’s be honest, celeriac isn’t exactly love at first sight. With its knobbly, uneven skin and wild roots, it looks more like something you’d find buried in the forest than sitting proudly on a dinner table. But beneath that rough exterior lies one of winter’s most rewarding treasures: creamy, aromatic […]

There is something deeply satisfying about preserving the best flavours of each season. This homemade nectarine chutney, with its balance of sweetness, gentle warmth, and subtle acidity, captures late-summer sunshine in a jar. It’s one of those small kitchen projects that rewards you again and again — especially when paired […]
Discover the Bozi Pear — a traditional Swiss variety from Fribourg that shines when cooked. Simple, seasonal, and perfect for cosy autumn and winter moments, this recipe brings out its delicate, aromatic flavour and lets it take its rightful place on the plate. The other day at the market I […]
Is there a better way to celebrate #WorldVegetarianDay than with this dreamy combo: vibrant pumpkin kissed by earthy sage? Pure autumn magic in every bite! What’s your go-to vegetarian combo this season? I’d love to hear it! Connect with me over at Cibo & Vino Cookbook Club and drop me a […]
While the days are gradually growing shorter, there’s a silver lining in Switzerland – mushroom season is currently in full swing, and it’s a delight to behold. Thanks to the perfect blend of sunshine and rain, these diverse fungi are not only abundant but also exceptionally flavorful. For the past […]
What makes a weekend truly perfect, you ask? Well, let me paint you a vibrant picture! On Friday night, we had the absolute pleasure of hosting a dinner for a long-lost family friend. After years of lost contact, our paths crossed again a couple of weeks ago. Picture this: porcini […]
As the days grow colder and autumn’s touch lingers in the air, there’s something special about heading to the local market for a handful of fresh, hearty mushrooms. Start by gently brushing off any lingering earth from the mushrooms, and remember, never soak them in water – that’s the secret […]
The recent weather drop had me yearning for some hearty eats. As a meat lover, I couldn’t wait for game season, which is in full swing right now. I’m lucky to be in a city that serves up local Swiss game with some strict but much-needed rules – especially for […]
Many of you have probably already found and followed online recepies for a pumpkin risotto, so I will spare you the detailed receipe and jump straight into the sensations: With some spare pumpkin (from the amazing pumpkin and chocolate cake I made the other day) and some white wine, I […]
As the days get darker and colder the wish for more warmth rises also in what we eat! This dish is a perfect combination of flavours – each of them well balanced and contributing to a satisfying plate of pasta. I choose to serve this sauce with tagliatelle made with […]
What a fantastic way of celebrating a Sunday brunch: mushrooms on a slice of tasty multi-grain bread served with a fried egg and a tasty green salad with lemon zest, lemon juice and EVO. Incredible to experience the balance between the different textures and flavours … definitely to be repeated […]
With the season of figs in full swing – my endless desire to eat figs and a crave for ricotta I decided to adapt the great receipe of Emiko Davies somewhat to make it a feast.
This lovely autumn cake is great with a nice cup of tea…or a Martini. The cinnamon and nutmeg give it a touch of orient. A tasty autumn cake with a touch of orient
A perfect autumn dinner bringing out the best of mushrooms in a tasty and creamy sauce. The sharpness of the ruccola goes very well with the mascarpone and balances the dish perfectly. A quick vegetarian autumn dinner full of hearty flavours
An autumn version of the highly loved baklava…great way to use up some apples, which are no longer as crunchy as you wish. I was amazed at how much flavour the first walnuts have – welcome to my home, baklava…! As juicy and sweet as baklava can get…with a touch […]
We are in the middle of fig season and maybe you are just like me: you just can’t get enough…! This full-on Mediterranean cake brings out quite some intense flavours – and not only of figs. Inspired by #annajones, I have adapted her receipe somewhat to my likings. The hazelnut […]
A warm welcome to autumn into my kitchen…what a way to start the pumpkin season…hearty pumpkin and lentils with the freshness of burrata – definitely a keeper in my house! Also this receipe is #inspriredbyottolenghi. I like to serve this warm, so that the fresh burrata cuts into the hearty […]
Some people call it an upside down cake…others call it tarte tartin…fact is that this comforting cake is just the right thing when the days are becoming darker and wetter… If you have a very sweet tooth, you might want to serve the first slices (when the cake is still […]
When the plums are as ripe as they are now…this is a receipe sent from heaven…and insipired by the amazing #dianahenry. I have tweaked her receipe a bit in order to make it more rustic and less sweat. An alternative to the hazelnuts are ground almonds – they make the […]
As the first of many apple cakes this fall/winter I chose an easy and tasty one. The quality of your apples will make a huge impact on the taste – firmer and less sugary apples tend to work better in this kind of cake. You can enjoy a slice of […]
