Rotini con zucchine et pesto di spinaci
This will be my last post before I fly to France, for my bi-yearly trip to visit the family.
I discovered this pasta while looking for an alternative for a gluten-free client. It’s basically pasta made with quinoa, amaranth and brown rice flour. At first I [...]

Encore du quinoa! – Quinoa au saffran comme un risotto avec courges grillées
For those like me these days who want more quinoa, here is a nice little recipe. I love to cook grains like a risotto by liquid absorption, this way, the grain gets infused with the flavor of the broth and becomes a [...]

Soupe de pois frais et épinards à la menthe et oeuf poché
Yesterday the lunch was light since we had been invited by our neighbor’s for the Chinese new year to a restaurant. Usually, if I know my dinner will be more substantial than usual, I balance it out with a light lunch. After all, it’s all [...]

Bricks de légumes au curry, sauce yaourt aux herbes
I got inspired by Indian samosas when I made those. I felt like eating something spicy, salty, but not greasy and since I bought a few brick packs when I was in France, with an expiration date coming close, I figured let’s make something that [...]

Un genre de fast food – Salade de pois chiches et poivrons aux herbes et haloumi
When I go to the store, I buy everything I get attracted to, so when I go to the store hungry, I get attracted to everything in the store. That’s what they say don’t go shopping when you’re hungry, which is [...]

Brick à braque – Feuilles de brick aux carottes, cumin et munster
I would say that this recipe has a French flair to it, especially with munster cheese in it. Munster is a a very old cheese from Alsace made with caw milk, but other regions like the one I grew up in also produce munster. It tends to [...]

Pasta rustica – Pici Toscani all’aglione e carciofini
Going back to what I like best…making homemade pasta. I made these to my parents when I went visit and they loved it. Marche (where my family is from) and Tuscany are close by regions and have similar cuisines (of course with some variations), [...]

Festeggiamo la primavera – Linguine con pesto di piselli, menta e pecorino
When you look at the ingredients of this pesto, you might think, it will be too strong especially with the mint and pecorino. When you taste it, you realize that it is indeed fragrant but delicate. I used some whole grain [...]

Qui l’eût cru? Pot-au-feu végétarien du Sud
I remember reading about this recipe in a French magazine such as Femme Actuelle or Elle à Table, but it’s been a while ago and I don’t remember so I have been making it from memory, which is certainly not exactly the same as the original. It’s [...]
