Looking into a map with collected recipes (you probably recognize the habit to read a recipe, tear it out the magazine or write it on a piece of paper, put it in a box or a map, without even preparing it once) I found a recipe of my grandparents apple pie which I never made … More Sweet rituals
I love a buffet ‘Ottolenghi style’ : large plates with different colors and flavors spread on a long table. The number of guests is not so important. I enjoy cooking lots of different recipes. After cleaning up the kitchen and myself, I can enjoy every single moment with the guests. But, not yet😏. This dish … More A perfect dish for a buffet
A bunch of artichokes seems a large portion for 2p, but there is a lot of waste. I love the super fresh baby artichokes in every way: raw, cooked, fried or grilled. Eat them as fresh as possible. Today I have 5 babies. Remove the harder outer leaves, the sharp ends. If they are fresh, … More An elegant quiche with artichokes
Our friend Diane has moved to our village. She has to wait for a kitchen until the end of this month. So, now and again I cook for 3p. She doesn’t like fish, and I try to cook vegetarian recipes. All in one dishes which can also be eaten at room temperature seem to me … More An occasional home delivery

Mix the meat with 1 teaspoon of dried lemon grass (fresh lemongrass will obviously be much better), 1 teaspoon of grated fresh ginger and 1 teaspoon of sambal. Mix. Oil your hands. Create meatballs of approximately 3 cm. … More Green curry with meatballs
‘Savour’or ‘Sensational salads’ of Peter Gordon is one of my favorite cookbooks. The combination is quite unusual but flavor and color are guaranteed. Today’s dinner is an original brunch recipe, crispy baked wasabi mushrooms with spinach, tomatoes and oranges. Start with the mushrooms. Portobellos are ideal. Remove the little stem. Chop. Chop 4 garlic cloves … More Sensational salad

Bake in the oven at 200° for 1h, or until tender. In the meantime you will have to think about an idea for a … More Another pumpkin lasagna tonight
White chocolate is sweet by itself. When I saw this recipe in the magazine of the supermarket Coop, I knew already that the indicated amount of sugar would be exaggerated ( especially because italian desserts are often super sweet, dolcissimo).Seeve 150 grams of flour 00. Add 6 grams of vanillated baking powder and a pinch … More Brownies with white chocolate 💕
Diane, one of my dear friends has moved to our village. Finally I could help her a bit in reorganizing her new place while our dogs are having a great time together. This lunch seems perfect, heatable in the microwave and creating, especially to Diane, a little break on one of her lovely terraces. Chop … More Vegetarian balls in a green soup
I love the real polpo, but often they are far too big for 2p although they shrink incredibly. Ask to cut the big ones ( approximately 2 kilo) in 2 equal pieces and store them in the freezer. It’s really important to boil the octopus long enough ( the process of freezing will help to … More Fabulous salad
