PLANT BASED FOOD AND STORIES
I’ve heard about Soparnik many times but didn’t make it till few months ago. And I can only blame myself for that, because it was eaten by the speed of the space rocket. But first things first. Soparnik is traditional Dalmatian dish, hundreds of years old. Or even older? The most famous and praised is […]
It was a quiet day. As quiet as cabbage can be. And fennel too. I wasn’t always on familiar terms with fennel, must admit. My Grandma didn’t have it in her garden and when it was brought my attention to it some decade ago, I turned away my nose in a frown. Don’t you like […]
I was affraid of cantaloupes as a child. Not because someone hit me in the head with it but in the nose. Not in the way you might think, but the scent would hit me hard everytime my Grandma cracked this yellow baseball open. So I ran. And my Grandma really loved cantaloupes and I […]
Oh, baking. Do you love baking? The scent of freshly baked bread coming softly and filling every corner of your home? I do. And if you are anything like me, then you’re gonna love this garlic bread. If you love bread, you’re gonna love it. We sometimes avoid garlic for obvious reason: you cannot just […]
Well now. I don’t like when food is wasted. Especially when I’m in control. How ever the table setting may be pretty and platters and bowls filled with delicious food, if I see or feel that that’s too much for the people in the room, I feel bad. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not counting […]
Chickpea, we love you, chickpea! In any assembly, and in Vegan Chickpea Shakshuka, we love you even more! I found this great recipe at my friend Nico’s beautiful blog Yumsome in February and made it many times ever since! Such a simple dish to make but so rich with great ingredients, spices, textures and tastes, I […]
I made this Simple Vegan Polenta Zucchini many times and in many ways. Rather say, I made simple polenta many times with many additions, after I saw Nagi’s recipe for roasted mushrooms on polenta, on her blog Recipe Tin Eats. So I thought, why didn’t I think of that?! So simple, so simple and easy […]
Not much of a story here. I mean, not much to write. But story is much and I assure you, it’s a story about love. So my husband was away at the sea side for a weekend and brought me a little bunch of these. Wild asparagus, to be honest, is not something I […]
You know about Kimchi, right? If not, like not so long ago me, do find out! Because Kimchi not only has a great taste and so many health benefits for you, but also gives endless opportunities for you to play with: have it all ready in your fridge when you don’t know what to […]
Vegan green peas and carrot stew on rice? My Grandma certanly wouldn’t call it that way but she would still make it. And she did, and we ate it often, especially in spring when her garden was bursting with fresh and thin spring onions and first little red raddish marbles rolling from the plate. […]
