I’m a huge fan of clementines. For me they are the perfect introduction to winter fruits. Just as grapes fall out of season, clementines start popping up at my local fruit-shop. I love the smell of peeling them. It reminds me of my mom peeling them for me when I was little Continue reading

Chocolate Chestnut Tart
Want something delicious, simple and foolproof for the festive table? Make a chestnut chocolate tart. In the past, just the word “tart” used to be the reason to avoid a recipe and stick to the good old cheesecake.

Just you and your blender. Continue reading

Pâté is very easy to make and all you need are great quality ingredients and a good food processor. Continue reading

Enjoy them every day and twice on Sunday 😉 Continue reading

Fusilli with roasted cherry tomatoes and marinated feta
I have a “thing” for cherry tomatoes. They are sweet like cherries and juicy like strawberries. Feta and tomatoes scream Greek summer and this recipe is fresh, summery, healthy and delicious. You can marinate the feta up to a week in advance. Continue reading
