Piadina turnovers with German filling.

Posted on 30 May 2017

I’m back after a long iatus, I had things to do, end of the school parties, work, hot weather struggle…

I don’t know if you remember my project about piadina turnovers filled with fillings inspired to different countries.

I did the Icelandic ones, the French ones, the English ones, I’m working on Dutch ones and today I’m posting here the German turnovers.

I made a big big mistake as you can see in photos: I had to make and shoot four different recipes, I was in a hurry and I took the wrong flags to decorate the photos.

Legumes cream with caprino cheese, salmon and chives.

Posted on 2 April 2017

With this recipe I attend a recipe contest organized by a lovely brand of preserved vegetables, the contest and all the recipes are in Italian but as I did here I want to translate at least the recipe for you.

I wanted to do something easy but tasty, something you can take with you in a jar when you wander around for a spring pic-nic or garden party.

I adore beans, chickpeas and legumes, they often come in wintery foods but I wanted to give this dish a spring flair.

I’m posting quick posts lately but I’m quite busy with work, sponsored posts, Lorenzo’s therapy and more: please forgive my hurry and enjoy the recipe!

Mixed crostini, Italian pub food.

Posted on 19 March 2017

This is the recipe I’m waiting to post since 2006, when I opened my first blog.

Why so long if this is not a difficult dish or with strange or unusual ingredients?

Well, crostini are something we usually eat out, in our osterie or pubs, they are a typical pub food so it’s not something you often make at home.

Savoury pumpkin pie.

After a wonderful but rainy week end in Ljubljana I’m back, not rested but happy! 🙂

Douring the next weeks I’ll have no time to cook and take pictures but I have photos of this and three more recipes so I only have to write.

While I was away I became, for the first time, an aunt: I’m so happy and I want to congratulate Francesca and Pietro and the small and beautiful Samuele.

Omelette rolls with goat’s cheese.

Posted on 11 September 2016

September is in full bloom, this week schools are going to open after the usual long summer break ( about 3 months of holiday, it could sound strange abroad) and my son Lorenzo in three days is going to be a primary school boy.

Even if we cared a lot about introducing this new step with joy, trying to instill in him curiosity, he only got he’s going to hell or somewhere similar, he’s not going to have any friend and he will fail the year for sure.

It’s great having such a bright and positive son.

He’s harassing himself and us, these three days will be very long, I hope he will discover school is not this bad.
