X is for Xpresso
Oh man, what a title. I’m sorry for that. Anyways, Espresso it is! That strong caffeinated drink that Italians just cannot get enough of. Perfectly understandable if you ask me. It’s a quick energy boost, and I mean, Italian espressos are the real deal. My big complaint about the espresso that I get here in The…
O is for Olive Oil
My absolute, number one, favourite ingredient is for the letter O: Olive Oil. I prefer any type of oil over butter, but the Queen of oils is the one for me. With so many different olive variations, producing techniques and regions, there is an endless supply of this golden liquid. It all started an immense…
E is for Even More Crostini
Crostini might just be the best thing to have ever been created. I’m not kidding. A crunchy base of bread, infused with garlic and olive oil, topped off with whatever combination of fresh ingredients you can think of. You might’ve noticed the terms bruschetta and crostini being interchanged, although technically they are different. Crostini are typically round…

A to Z Challenge Theme Reveal!
As you may or may not have read in my previous post, I am participating in quite an exciting blogging challenge in April; the A to Z Challenge! I’ve briefly mentioned what it was about, but seeing that April is drawing closer with each passing minute, it was about time for a more detailed explanation….
Imam Bayildi – Stuffed Eggplant
Imam Bayildi is a Turkish recipe, that reminds me of those perfect days in the Mediterranean with the most beautiful dishes I’ve ever tasted. This stuffed eggplant is literally one of my favourite dishes. The easiness of the cooking process, the intense depth of the flavours, the simplicity of the ingredients; they all add up to…
The Basics of Risotto
I’m going to Rome in April! It will be officially six whole years since my trip to the most beautiful city in the world. Six years, people, I was 16 back then. Do you realize how old I am getting? However, now I’ll definitely fit in between the ancient buildings and rich history. So to prepare…
Top 11 Dream Kitchens
So I’ve got this board on Pinterest, right. It has about 215 pins of kitchens. Just kitchens. There is not a place in the world where I can be happier than in my kitchen. Well, except for maybe my bed. Girls are supposed to have their dreams of the future filled with what their wedding…
Smoked Salmon Quiche
I looooooove quiches. To me, they are the quickest, easiest, dinner to put together. Just toss in any vegetable, meat, fish, you have, and you’ll end up with a delicious hearty pie. Once you’ve mastered the basic recipe, set your mind free and be inspired by whatever ingredient you have in your fridge or cupboard….
Lasagna al Forno
I’ll just straight up say it. I am not a big fan of lasagna. I do not NOT like it, but I don’t particularly love it. To some of you this might seem strange, as I have just confessed my undying love for pasta in the previous hearty post. However, I finally found out why…
