Alright everyone, today I’m going to share my recipe for this Raspberry Sponge Cake, which is one of those not-too-sweet, totally fresh and delightful, reminds-you-of spring kinds of cakes. Pretty much, I say it’s a Raspberry Shortcake with a twist of lemon. And yes, I promise you: This cake is every bit as good […]
Hey everybody, welcome back to the blog! This week I want to share with you yet another sweet treat in honour of the fast-approaching Valentine’s Day: Milk Chocolate Truffles. Some of you know that growing up, my family made their living making chocolate, and truffles were among the favourite items we used to sell. We […]
Hey guys, today is the day for my easy white chocolate truffle recipe – Which I think is perfect for just about any day, but Valentines Day being a couple of weeks away is the perfect inspiration to make it happen in my kitchen now. White chocolate is one of those things that you probably […]
Chile is a side/topping for just about anything. It’s a lot like a fine fresh salsa or hot sauce – and IT IS VERY HOT. You can make it with any kind of hot pepper, but since jalapeños are probably the most accessible in North America, we decided to make it with those. We have also made this with Scotch Bonnet peppers before, and let me tell you, those are also delicious – but definitely more spicy! So, if you want to go for a milder version of this sauce, go for a milder pepper.
Ok my friends, today is the day you learn how to dry oranges in the oven. Orange slices, that is, for decoration, potpourri, or you name it. The world is your oyster! This is something I’ve wanted to learn how to do for a lot of years for the purpose of decorating with them. Also, […]
I love peach iced tea. Actually, I love iced tea in general, but I have to say I’m an especially huge fan of iced tea with the light, fresh flavour of peaches hidden in the background. I created this recipe after making a batch of Peach Raspberry Jam because I had a ton of peach […]
I love homemade jam. I remember visiting my Oma (my mom’s mom) when I was a kid, and she always seemed to have lots of it on hand. She also always made her own homemade bread or rolls, and encouraged us to eat lots of it, which made the experience of visiting her that much […]
Here’s a staple favourite recipe that I’ve made countless times, and I hope you will enjoy it as well! I love all things taco, so I figured it was about time to share this recipe. It’s been the backbone of every great taco that has come out of my kitchen, and it’s so much cheaper […]
Here’s a recipe that’s all about nostalgia for me. My Oma used to make this, and one day, while I was pregnant, I got it into my mind that I really wanted to have it again… So I set to work trying to re-create her recipe (I wasn’t sure how she made it, or if […]
Rice cooked with milk is something I grew up on and have come to love more in my adult years than I ever did as a kid. You can eat it as a breakfast food, or as a dessert, topped with sugar or a fruit sauce. This recipe is a little thinner than I remember […]
