Minestrone is one of the oldest Italian dishes still made in Italian cuisine today. Normally it’s served as an appetizer before the main course, but this version here is actually THE main course. This Minestrone with Orecchiette Pasta is a flavorful dish that will fill you up and warm you at the same time. Unfortunately, this is something you have to start thinking about again in September. There is no way to sugarcoat it: winter is coming! ;)
This winter is currently more wet than cold – instead of some snow, we have somewhat between snow and rain all the time. The sun is also probably gone until March. Ugh! Tough times! The only thing that can help right now is a big bowl of hot soup or stew to warm you from the inside which hopefully lifts the mood a little. This delicious (Vegan) Stew with White Beans and Tomatoes is the perfect dish to accomplish this mission right now. Trust me ;)
It’s still cold and wet outside. Luckily I’m currently working from home and don’t have to get out into the yucky weather every morning. Even though you need a little extra warmth in form of delicious food sometimes – something to warm you from the inside. It’s called soul food. Delicious food to keep you warm and make you feel comfy. Like this delicious Soup with Potatoes and Kohlrabi. One large pot can feed a crowd or in times of lockdown only a few persons several days in a row ;)
Don’t ask me why exactly you can see soup on this baking blog today… I guess you are used to cakes, cupcakes and such. Today everything is a bit different. Hope you can accept that for once and like what I cooked for you: Lentil soup with some homemade pita bread ;P
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 ;)
