All Passions Start in the Kitchen
Even if it’s already Spring, in the last few days the evenings in London have been really cold and I have been coming home at night with a desire for something hot and comforting to be prepared quickly. This hearty soup has been my solution to lots of mid-week dinners […]
It took me a while to end up with what I consider the perfect banana muffin recipe, but, in the end, I think I managed to make them very similar to the Starbucks ones… But with much less butter! These muffins are perfect for breakfast or for a snack and […]
I came out with this recipe on a day when I was feeling like having a good portion of Italian home made ravioli but it was too late to prepare them, even if I had all the ingredients. The texture and taste of these spaghetti are absolutely incredible so I […]
After sharing with you some of my weekend’s early morning treats, I feel it’s time to tell you how I start all my weekdays (rose apart)! After our last holidays in the Maldives where I had the most delicious bircher muesli I’ve ever tried, I was inspired to create something […]
