Jó reggelt kívánok or morning! From today until Christmas, you can try the best Transylvanian cake every day, Zserbó – Jerbo, Gerbeaud, Greta Garbo or a five-sheet walnut cake, as my grandmother wrote in her recipe book. The cake is named after Emil Gerbeaud, a Swiss confectioner, chocolate maker and entrepreneur of Hungarian descent, who
Real Tiramisu, made by Chef, the classic recipe. With biscuits, coffee with Amaretto or Marsala and egg cream with mascarpone and sugar, covered with a generous layer of cocoa. First mentioned in a cookbook in the Venetian region, in 1983 and invented somewhere in the 60’s and 70’s, tiramisu in Italian means “take me/ get
This month we have a series of disastrously simple but super fancy recipes to impress your friends. 🙂 Bruschetta is an Italian appetizer with different toppings, from tomatoes with basil to vegetables, sausages or cheese. Today we have the classic version, with four ingredients and 15 minutes of preparation. 🙂 But the end result, maaamaaaamiiiiiiaaaa,
It is said that the egg salad was eaten at the English tables in the 17th-18th centuries, after which mayonnaise was invented, after which egg salad sandwiches appeared. In our country, almost everyone has eaten something like this at least once in their life, only it must have potatoes. And olives. And sour cucumbers. LOL.
Ingredients: boiled egg, tuna, boiled potatoes, olives, red onion, tomatoes, lettuce, boiled green beans. Basically, a kind of potato salad learned in high school, with tuna, lettuce and green beans, plus a super fancy name and hard to pronounce. :)) French-inspired, it is a filling salad that looks good and eats even better. 🙂 The
Well, today I thought we’d celebrate with chicken brine. 🙂 I don’t know about you, but I drool when I hear the word brine. 😛 There are different recipes on the internet, but this one is extremely simple, with 4 ingredients, chicken (boneless thighs), bell peppers (red and green), hot peppers and tomatoes. And a
Well, this competitive break is good for something. 😀 For example, I found out that the bread in the egg, which you know as ‘frigănele’, is actually French toast. If I stretch the egg with water, others use milk; plus the topping can be honey, or sugar, or sweet and spicy syrups. Like some kind
If I hadn’t been hit in the head by spring asthenia, I would have given you the recipe for Cosmopolitan. 🙂 That’s how you’ll have to settle for a high-calorie recipe that contains carbs, protein and fat, plus gluten and sugar. Yes, mother of all disasters in the kitchen, the American version of the classic
After exactly 10 years since I got the recipe and 99 episodes of #disasterinthekitchen, I set out to make the only cake that, for unexplained reasons, is called Claudia. 🙂 Although, originally, it is also known as Albina or Albinița cake, more than likely due to the bee honey sheets. 🙂 Hungarians have their own
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
Manakish, manaeesh, man’ousheh comes from the Middle East (originally from Lebanon) and is a flat bread similar to pizza. The dough can be covered with thyme, cheese or minced meat. Thyme topping and other spices are called Za’atar. I used Paul Hollywood’s recipe, which says that for one serving (3 large pieces) you need 500g
Well, this recipe, which sounds awful, is in free translation a homemade pan of pasta with bacon and greens and German sour cabbage (from the pickled one with vinegar). In practice, it is done quite quickly, if you are smart and buy the ingredients from a Lidl or Kaufland, respectively spaetzle noodles (egg pasta), which
I was visiting friends and I left, like the Romanian from Transylvania, with about three recipes for Hungarian soups. 😛 Today we have karalábéleves kohlrabi soup, extremely vegan, because the base was vegetable soup. :)) For my kohlrabi soup I chopped some red onions and grated a cleaned kohlrabi (you can also chop the leaves
In honor of a new day off, today we have a traditional recipe, which comes from the Thracians who traveled to the new world and returned with the corn cobs back. 😛 To get it out, you need quality bellows cheese (brânză de burduf, in Romanian). At least that’s what my mother says, who is
Well, if we all ended up healthy in the new year twenty-twenty, I stole a recipe from my friends with Hungarian grandparents. 😛 Pulyka nyuvaszto or turkey drowning soup translated takes you out of the drunkenness of the holidays with the speed of Transylvanian light. 🙂 How do you make a turkey drowning soup? In
Well, you will see the best pictures today, the ones for guests, but to get to this level I can tell you that I burned a few trays of cookies in the last two or three Christmases. 🙂 Dough 321 as I name it, to make it easier to remember, is a very fine dough
When you don’t know how to make brioche, what do you do? You make panettone. 🙂 On one of the few times I tried to make a brioche, it grew, looked impeccable, but had no taste. Because I forgot to put salt in it. :))) It’s just that this year I discovered some candied fruits
A pink disaster and a sausage maker met into a car. That’s why they became friends, posed for a picture and the story below resulted. ❤ 😀 The miracle ingredient is not pork, as you might be tempted to believe, but the holy clove of garlic. 🙂 Cleaned, ground, rubbed with salt until all the
I wanted to brag with the food that I made with these two little hands…. only that my father was not impressed at all and he is the only one who appreciates the classic quince food in our family. 😀 So today we have a classic recipe, in a slightly disastrous version. 😛 The recipe
I don’t know about others, but when I think of pickles, I salivate instantly! :)) It is true that due to global warming we no longer consume so many pickles (or because we no longer drink alcohol ?? 😀), but Xmas cannot come if we have not made at least one pickled salad. 🙂 Well,
As the guys say, Ich wart’ seit WochenAuf diesen TagUnd tanz’ vor Freude, über den Asphalt Die Toten Hosen, Tage wie diese Well dear cats, you didn’t think you’d escape without a special Oktoberfest episode with something sweet and sour, did you? 😉 Marillenknödel or apricot dumplings come from the Austro-Czech area, but are also
Grüß Gott, meine lieben Katzen, because since yesterday we are officially in Oktoberfest, today we have Bavarian food, directly from Kronstadt. 😀 Well, what to do, globalization. :)) I searched for a day through recipes to see what to choose for today and I must admit that it was extremely difficult. In the end I
Well, first of all, in order to implement this super delicious recipe – and slightly bitter :)) – you need organic blackberries, picked with your little hand from your friends’ garden. You have no friends with the garden, you have no recipe. 😀 Secondly, you need gelling sugar – because we only like disastrously fast
The last book was The Big Book of Backyard Cooking 250 Favorite Recipes for Enjoying the Great Outdoors. Lots of meat, salads, fruit tarts, yada-yada, read or do research on the internet for American recipes, because they are all about the same. 🙂 I decided to show you today some unhealthy, grilled, delicious ideas. 🙂
Well and what do we have here? Biscuit salami. ❤ Childhood dessert, comfort food, de-li-ci-ous, are all synonymous for the same thing, an easy dessert to make, whose recipe I learned in secondary school. Yes, I had some kind of cooking/ housekeeping classes from which I didn’t learn much, except the recipes for biscuit salami,
In the local culture, the classic meatball soup (or cousins, as we call it – is a Romanian language joke) is a test for the informal citizenship exam. If you destroy the aforementioned soup, you will have ninety years of bad luck, you will reincarnate as prime minister and you will never get married again.
