Nutella cookies

No comments
If you passed the period in your life of eating Nutella by the spoon, this cookie is a sweet little option to enjoy just a delicate taste of the fabulous chocolate spread. A cup of coffee, a couple of cookies and you are in Nutella dreamland again...

Potato gnocchi

I like making gnocchi. Is it really relaxing? I think it is. You can't rush anything, you stand in your kitchen for about an hour...making...gnocchio after gnocchio.

Amaretti torta

I was rearranging contents of my drawers in the kitchen, when I stumbled again upon the bag of amaretti cookies I got last year in Italy. These cookies have been here too long taking too much space.

Kitchari with vegetables

No comments
When I don't know what to make, don't have time, had enough chocolate, tomato sauces, pizza and pasta...I go back to this recipe. And I don't feel bad making, eating and serving the same thing several times in a row (freshly made for lunch, reheated for dinner) to me or anybody around. Especially when it seems everybody else is getting sick...and we are not (knock knock knock). This is a great between-seasons dish. Without getting to deep into the benefits of Kitchari, this meal is just delicious and easy to make. And it tastes like nothing else I ever make.

Capri cake I

No comments
Beautiful recipe. No flour, no powder. Just almonds, butter, sugar, eggs and chocolate. Cake from Capri, where it's beautiful and sunny and no one wants to spend hours in the kitchen working on elaborated dishes.
