  • Episode of the Madeleine

    My list of draft posts is pretty big. So time to recollect those recipes from my memory and write them down. First one is about Madeleines inspired by Dagelijkse Kost.

  • The world upside down

    Sometimes the simplest ideas are often best. Of course the Tarte Tatin is a great example of that, turning your apple tart upside down. I took a spin on that and made some upside down apple cakes, inspired by Wikipedia.

  • Does appearance really matter?

    Food is all about senses. Taste and smell are pretty important senses for me. But sometimes I wonder if sight is also important when it comes to food? Sight was also the main reason why I made Chinese tea eggs last week, inspired by Wikipedia

  • Sharing sweets

    It’s always great to share food with people you like, especially sweets. This weekend I had a good reason to share some sweets, a really nice sunny day at the park. I made some muffins with red currant for this occasion, inspired by Noms I Must

  • Still twenty something

    A couple of months ago I celebrated my birthday. Not a big party but I had another thing to do. The last few years it was a habit to bring along home made birthday cakes to work. This year wasn’t an exception. I made a Spanish almond cake, inspired by Koken & Genieten

  • Have a break

    Working outside the office has been really busy lately. But it also has it pros. You meet new people, see new places and of course I come across different food. For instance, fresh cherries. I used them for cakes inspired by Muffin tin mania.

  • For the win! 2010

    I must admit, I’m not the biggest football fan as I used to be in my childhood. But the World cup is special event. So in honor of our Dutch national football team I created an orange nectarine-carrot gelato, inspired by Robert Gelato, Amy Johnson & David Lebovitz.

  • Hyperactive presentation

    In the beginning of the year I borrowed a cookbook from a friend. It is a cookbook from a famous dutch chef named Pierre Wind. In honor of his work I created a salmon salad. The salad was inspired by recipes from Sprouted Kitchen & De wondere wereld van de Keukenkoning.

  • I loaf Christmas

    Just like making Snert, I have another tradition at the end of every year. I tend to make a bread loaf with fruit, it’s called a Kerststol. Recipe was inspired by Het Nieuwe Kookboek.

  • Blue inspiration

    Lately I’ve been getting some inspiration from my colleagues at work. Discussing food and sharing thoughts. One of them gave me copy of a menu from a famous Dutch restaurant Ron Blaauw. It inspired me to make a baba au whiskey.
