Pulpitos

It took a snowy day to make me look into the buffer of unprocessed photos and bring something out. Here are the pulpitos: small roasted squid. Pulpitos There are 3 ingredients to this recipe: 1. The squids. Must be cleaned and dried. Remember that there are only 2 intervals of roasting time in which the squids will be soft: < 5 mins and > 30 mins :) 2. The parsley oil....

Flan patissier

N-am mai pozat/gatit de ceva vreme dar unul din lucrurile care imi lipsesc cel mai tare de fiecare data cand ma intorc din Franta este boulangeria de la fiecare colt de strada, croissantul cu migdale (si ciocolata) si alte minunatii pacatoase. Asa ca din gand in gand combinat cu un weekend ploios am reusit sa duc la implinire o bunatate de flan auriu cu aroma de vanilie. Flan patissier Blatul Desi de cele mai multe ori flanul nu are blat am decis sa fac o varianta care are un pic de blat, cam de 1cm....

Tort

TORT, torturi, s. n. Prăjitură (de obicei de formă cilindrică) făcută din mai multe straturi de aluat, având între ele straturi de cremă, de dulceață etc., acoperită cu o glazură sau cremă ornamentală etc. (sursa: dex). Din pacate nu stiu nici o sursa unde pot sa gasesc o felie de tort care sa respecte definitia de mai sus. Majoritatea “torturilor” din cofetarii consta intr-o matrita de plastic in care s-a turnat o crema groasa si sunt acoperite cu un strat de alta culoare....

Poppy seed biscuits

I ended up with this recipe after searching for a nice holiday gift for my friends and the result was well received ;) Actually I did some tests and I migrated from cinnamon rolls to cinnamon, raisins rolls and finally to poppy seeds rolls cookies. Poppy rolls The dough ingredients 2.5 cups flour 1 egg (there are a lot of recipes which use cream cheese instead of the egg but it seemed better this way) 3/4 cup sugar (I mixed normal and confectioners sugar) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon salt 225g butter....

Fish cravings

Some days I go to the fish market an cannot stop buying around: small fish, calamari, squid, fish fillet, roe. Then all I need is a bit of corn flour, a bit of regular flour, salt, pepper and some spices for a nice crust and some patience to cut the onion for the roe salad. Add a nice tomato salad and some white bread and I’ve made my day. Fish cravings...

Chiffon lemon cake

Sunt un pic pretentios in legatura cu torturile asa ca cea mai eficienta solutie mi s-a parut sa-mi fac unul singur. Rezultatul a fost delicios si racoros, fara a fi atat de strong ca prajitura de lamai. Pentru mine, tortul perfect. Chiffon lemon cake Blatul Operatiunile incep prin a spala bine 5 lamai mari. Cu multa energie ca sa eliminam ceara cu care sunt acoperite. Apoi radem lamaie pentru coaja si le stoarcem pentru zeama....

Jambalaya

And I just said I don’t like fancy titles. Shame on me. This however is a recipe with trekkie inspiration. Do you know what Captain Benjamin Sisko cooked for his friends on DS9? Jambalaya. I was wondering what jambalaya is so I found it. In fact I could be rude and call it a shrimp pilaf in my case since I did not had any raw shrimps to boil and use the stock for the rice....

Beef bourguignon

I try to keep away from pretentious recipes titles but this describes the best this somewhat simple but very lengthy recipe. I did not had much time lately to cook, shoot or write about food but after eating pizza with coke on Saturday I decided to take some measures. So, I remembered a beef bone with meat I had bought a while ago which was perfect for the task. Beef bourguignon...
