As an Italian, I am a rather conservative cook when it comes to our jewels…and risotto is certainly one of them. But what do they say: special times ask for special actions… 🤔 I was a happy host last night, when this super tasty and surprisingly fresh citrus risotto accompanied […]

This citrusy cake tastes as vibrant as it looks. Letitia Clark’s receipe is a perfect way out of a winter depression … the Southern sun literally shines in your kitchen. The cake needs to be completely cooled before it is served and will keep well for 3-4 days. A very […]
I guess you can’t go more Mediterranean than with this beautiful clementine and almond cake. It is my first experience with muscovado sugar and I like the way the smoky taste is an amazing contrast to the slightly bitter clementine and lemon pulp. The crunchy topping is the perfect contrast […]
A few days ago I saw a post from @emikodavies which inspired me to try out this unusual combination of a bitter salad in a sweet cake … a beautiful cake … ready to sweeten my Monday morning

When life sends you #artichokes … you make #artichokefrittata Thank you @crowdcontainer for having organised these tasty and tender artichokes. I woke up with the desire to fully use these beauties (actually wanted to make pancakes) and just followed my instinct … and here you go … a very tasty […]
For those of you, who are “cacio e pepe lovers” like me, this is a welcome and wintery variation – especially in the peak of the orange season. I was a bit sceptical to change this “sacro santo” from Rome, but my brave move was rewarded with this super tasty […]
I am not quite sure whether I should be more happy about the result of this amazing tiramisu or more ashamed that I have had the courage to change the basics of a tiramisu, which you just don’t do as an Italian… anyway, believe me, this version with both mascarpone […]
Earlier this week I had the urge to treat myself with a lamb tagine – the cold outside made me crave for some Moroccan warmth… An easy to make tagine, which brings you to Morocco…
Not sure what the weather is like where you currently are…here it is grey, white and wet…a perfect morning to light a candle and enjoy the morning coffee in style and warmth before the day’s challenges start to drop in… Make the most of your day – even in these […]
Inspired by the creative Anna Jones, I have decided to treat myself to this colourful wintery curd making the most out of the fantastic clementines I recently received. As the days are still quite dark and not always as bright as I would like them to be, this extra boost […]
My first receipe of the new year: an Ottolenghi inspired wintery one pot chicken receipe, which satisfies both the sweet and the savory tooth. I decided to serve this dish with Jerusalem artichoke, which nicely soaked up the fruity juices. A wintery sweet and savory chicken one pot receipe
Hello winter…hello clementines! The freshness of the fruit and the heartiness of the nuts are equally balanced in these amazingly tasty muffins.

And here is to a first again this season: cime di rapa. I just love this slightly bitter and very tasty vegetable sauted in olive oil with some garlic 🧄

This is so totally me…how come I only get to see them now…pink as a style… I am very much looking forward to preparing it with some other winter goodies…
Whoever believes that winter is less attractive than other seasons in terms of local food products (I am referring to Central Europe) does not spend enough time on the markets. For me a first this season…but a very welcome returning guest to my kitchen is catalogna. This slightly bitter green […]
If you followed my in the last few weeks, you might have noticed that I have started to preserve lemons. Not as easy as I thought, but I think I am getting the hang of it 🍋 So last night was my first attempt to actually use a first lemon…for […]
Peace and renewal…life is what comes to my mind when I see the colours of white and green. Two things our world desparately needs…!
There is no better way to start a cold and sunny day in the best city: Bürkliplatz market. Mother nature is producing less and less with the frosty nights…but just have a look at these beauties…
