At our house the strawberry shortcake was actually a super quick seasonal fruit cake. For it you need a special tray, round like for tarts, but deeper in the middle, so that you bake the top, turn it and have room for the cream and fruit. Lots of fruit. 😛 But if you don’t have
Because it is the autumn fruit season, today we have a plum cake, a disaster that is easy to make and super delicious. 😛 Basically, we have a sponge cake that we combine with some plums. If you don’t want plums, you can use pears or other seasonal fruits. For sponge cake we need 4
Well, it should have been a sour cherry strudel. I just didn’t have the time and desire to roll out the dough, so I turned to the puff pastry supply in the freezer. It turned out to be a medium-sized, slightly burnt disaster (because of the oven, not me, lol), with some fruit and the
I admit, I also tried this version of pancakes, but the classic ones still seem better to me (see more ideas here). 🙂 The sauce instead is worth trying with ice cream. 😀 It’s a recipe from Gordon Ramsay, which was the suggestion of the month at #cookingbookclub and sounded great in theory.

Maybe you’re wondering what Chef is up to these days? He’s dealing with cakes. :))))) This recipe came in handy, because otherwise I would have had to stress you with a coffee with amaretto or maybe a fruit tart… But don’t worry, we’ll see in the next episode… 🙂 So today we have a clean
Quince tart, has the smell of autumn and the taste of ginger. :))) It is also a variant with very little sugar, 1-2 tablespoons for 1 kg of fruit. The dough is also half the normal amount: I made two sheets of 125g flour with 63g butter and 3 tablespoons of cold water, a pinch
Well, but what are “căcăuele”? 🙂 They are small cakes with jam, cocoa and nuts, similar to muffins and cut with a glass, in the shape of a crescent. Hence the name in Romanian – the synonym for crescent is “semilună”. The recipe comes from Oana’s mother’s notebook. 🙂 You need 3 eggs, 1 cup
If you arrive in the area this weekend, you can join the famous pancake festival in Prejmer, the reason for the carnival before Mardi Gras. Fashing – how is called locally, which begins on 11:11 at 11:11 a.m., includes all sorts of parties and festivities, including a carnival with a parade of masks and street
Gingerbread, turtă dulce, Lebkuchen. A variety of biscuits sweetened with honey or molasses and seasoned with ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and especially cloves. It is said that in the beginning they were recommended for indigestion, to later be part of the traditional Christmas sweets. It is also true that the spices are perfect for the cold
Assuming you haven’t made all the plums jam or brandy, it’s time to celebrate the end of September with a large pot of plum dumplings (gomboți, Zwetschgenknodel, szilvasgomboc, Knedle ze śliwkami). While you say dumpling using all those versions, remove the kernel from the plums, leaving them, if possible, whole. 🙂 If you don’t succeed,
