Pulled Salmon Bagel with Avocado

Pulled Salmon is a term I took over from the Pulled Pork, that incredibly tender and soft pork roast which is drowned in BBQ sauce and can literally be pulled apart without any effort. This pulled meat is a perfect base for burgers, sandwiches and the like. Unfortunately I am one of those impatient brats […]
Mediterranean penne salad with olives and arugula

Sometimes you make a recipe draft and fall in love with it right from the beginning. This just happened to me with this garlic fried penne pasta with olives, dried tomatoes, capers, walnuts and fresh rocket salad. My bf Grimm announced this dish as his new favourite food right away. And I have to admit […]
Creamy, garlicky mashed sweet potatoes

I already promised it at the end of last year. Our stuffed and roasted Christmas pumpkin was served with creamy, garlicky mashed potatoes for which a recipe didn’t exist yet, shame on me! But after being bugged obtrusively by hosts of people (at least 2!) to finally fork out the recipe – it’s here.
Peanut Butter & Jelly Cups (only 5 ingredients)

Just like last year you won’t see any lovely love is everywhere valentines day recipes from me. #sorrynotsorry I’m simply to bitter, cold and happily in love for such consumption oriented holidays. My human of choice is always suffocated with love, affection and food, we’re definitely not in need for a special day on which […]
Cream of Broccoli Soup with Hummus

In Winter I (re)discovered my love for soups. I have to admit that was never the biggest fan of soups. Not as a starter and certainly not as a full-featured main course – for me it was lacking the texture and bite… well, and I was lacking the appreciation for this amazing dish. But during […]
How to steam vegetables without a steamer

You would like to gently steam your vegetables, but are absolutely not up to finding a new spot in your cupboards for yet another bulky kitchen device? Well, then why don’t you try it with your good ol’ pal the kitchen strainer?
Baked apple oatmeal with cinnamon

This winter I developed my all time favourite breakfast of the year. Since November or so we’ve basically had nothing but this warming, cinnamon-y baked apple oatmeal. It’s not only incredibly comforting and delicous but it’ll also keep you full for hours and is done within 10 minutes. Basically the length of making coffee in […]
Sunchoke & mushroom risotto

„Oh dear, we’ve spent our last vacation in topinambour. Beautiful, I can tell ya! The locals there are so rooted to the soil and absolutely grounded.“ This could have been one of the unknowing reactions from my fellow people, when I told them about the awesome risotto with topinambour I made. Well, I guess there […]

Camerons Kick – Whisky Cocktail

Sipping cheap and bright cocktails during my teenage years – oh dear, I can still see it before my inner eye. We headed for the cheapest cocktail bar in town (during happy hour of course) and ordered the sweetest, strongest Jumbo cocktail we could possibly find. Quantity always came before quality, after all we hit […]
Stuffed pumpkin with almond butter sauce

Well, sometimes your private life just kicks in at the busiest time of the year, and just doesn’t give a shit that you planned to publish your Christmas dinner in the beginning of December. Instead I now have a last minute Christmas quickie for you shortly before Christmas Eve.
Hot wild berry punch

It’s that time of the year again – it’s Christmas time. The time of heating your ovens and cutting out cookies. The time of sweating over what presents to give to each and every relative. The time of cramping into the subway and fighting your way through the stuffed city centers and buying overpriced wood […]
