34. Linsengericht III.: Indian Lentil (Curry) Stew September 30, 2025 at 8:51am
Yes, this dish looks quite plain , but once it shows what it's really made of...! Hm, remember Susan Boyle? When that plain Scot took the stage in front of the "Britain's Got Talent" jury / audience, everyone prepared themselves for a good laugh... until Boyle opened her mouth.
Okay, you probably won't be in tight, teary-eyed embrace with yourself or your table neighbor upon tasting this, but you will be embarrassed that you thought it was the culinary... [Read more] 33. "Never-Ending" Pumpkin Empanadas September 28, 2025 at 7:45am
These came about by pure chance ... but, dang , what a yummy slam-dunk!
As it happens I'm thinning out my cookbook selection right now, and swayed about the two Mexican Cookbooks. Actually, I have no real connection to Cocina Mexicana , but the covers were very... enticing . Hey, you eat with your eyes first!
And then ... I got a memory flash.
It was a real grey sh–day, like that rainy day I remembered when browsing through them. The one in that littl... [Read more] 32. NEW ROOT: Luxembourgish Bretzel September 27, 2025 at 11:00am
Maybe a little Disclaimer for someone who's just stumbled over this collection and already found some ( savory ) things to try out and maybe make her nutrition a bit yummier : . After what I've shared with you, you'll probably think now I'm a Bloody Liar , BUT: I'm also only just a Human Being with a BIIIIG sweet tooth. Peace?
Anyway!
As small as it is – about 3x the size of NYC – Luxembourg has LOTS of reasons and traditions to celebrate.... [Read more] 31. Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal September 25, 2025 at 4:40pm
This was indeed a yummy and nutritious breakfast / snack dish.
It's healthy because of pumpkin, oats and nuts. Spicy because of the various spices. Sweet enough due to a bit of two sugars.
Like , or , it's again out of Tiffany & James Fraioli's Baking for Beginners .
And as the authors promise, it's made in a jiffy: throw the ingredients together, mix, and bake. Fäddisch!
However...
Please don't laugh at me now , but...
WHAT... [Read more] 30. Original Swedish Köttbullar September 19, 2025 at 3:53pm
Recipe definitely NOT from IKEA.
Why I say that?
Well, I dunno about you , but if you're not Swedish and know how to do them, you usually only get to eat them at IKEA – and dude, after running a perceived half-marathon through the store in search of– and finally get through check-out – after another half-marathon – you're usually hangry like sh–, especially when your shoulder's almost dislocating from all the extra sh– you schlepped out with you, t...

Well, when you can make from these, you can also make cake from 'em, eh? And not that bad a cake, if I may say
so. Although...
One downer.
It wasn't as good as it could've been .
For MY taste it was the wrong nuts. Zucchs and hazel didn't go well for ME – but that doesn't mean it has for YOU, when you try this one out. I've made a cake with zucchs before, , and that was just fine – and no , not solely because of the ch... [Read more] |
