Did you know it’s “International Picnic Day”?! Oh yes – that’s a thing ;) So let’s grab some food and find a nice place outside to enjoy the sun and fresh air, shall we?! I made some delicious Empanadas with Chimichurri Sauce – enough to feed a football team! That should be a nice snack for our picnic…
Once again… it’s “Bake Together” time! Every last Sunday of the month Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte and I are doing our little baking event called “Bake Together – The Baking Surprise” and this months topic can be described as “let’s do something with strawberries and maybe pudding?!” – yeah! ;) Well… good choice! So today I got a new recipe for you with strawberries and pudding aka. Danish with Vanilla Custard and Strawberries. So good!
It is “Bake Together” time again! Yaaay! It’s been quite a while since Andrea and I have been baking together. We did not do anything in December because of the holidays so it’s two months already… Let’s get the new season started with something nice. Andrea and I both love yeast bakes so we decided to dedicate this month to yeast! Ok, that might be a topic which is too broad. Let’s say little pastries with a yeast dough ;) Well, these Poppy Seed Rolls aka. Mohnschnecken definitely fit in that category…
Maybe you know these kinds of situations too… when you listen to a certain song or you smell a certain food or perfume you get instantly transported in your mind to a memory where this song or smell played an important role or is somehow connected with a (more or less) important memory. I have for example a compilation of songs I call “Pet Sematary Songs”. When I was a child I was reading Steven King books like crazy and one of them was “Pet Sematary” – back then I listened to only a few CDs with the same songs over and over. Nowadays when I hear these songs I am immediately back in my old bedroom, lying on the bed and reading this book. Every single time I listen to one of those songs ;) It’s quite a strong connection. How are these Churros with Chocolate Sauce connected to that you may ask? Well…. ;)
There is so much you can do with granola. There is no need to soak it in milk. There are so many ways you can use it in bakes and sweets like these Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola Bars. All you need is some additional ingredients like peanut butter and chocolate and you will get a snack you can eat at any time of the day – not only in the morning. Much better than that porridge mess you get, if you let the granola soak too long :P
I got something really delicious for you today. Sweet, fatty and damn delicious! I brought these little fellas back home from my last trip to Asia… well I did not actually bring them, but the idea to make them for you ;) Top seller on many street food markets: Hotteoks – Korean style donuts/pancakes served with chocolate sauce and chocolate ice cream. So good!
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
