“Gingery” Peanut Butter Melt in your Mouth Cookies

January 25, 2016 by Ariel 2 Comments

One of my most perfect cookie…

Hard and crunchy at first but them it starts melting in your mouth revealing delicate peanuts, ginger & cardamom flavours. A nice foolproof, easy recipe for when you don’t want to break your head and have a store bought quality cookie.

How long can you last before you eat them all? They lasted 3 days in my house and I had to fight for it because they would have been gone the first night. Oh and did I mentioned they absorb milk PERFECTLY? …so please, dunk them!

Good luck!

Spinach & Tomato Galette with Hard Boiled Eggs

January 18, 2016 by Ariel 1 Comment

It was my first time making a galette of any kinds and like the girls from Food52 said in their video for the NY Times, making a galette is super easy and it’s one of those meal where you don’t really need a recipe and, once you understand the principles, and/or you already have your dough recipe ready, it’s only a question of filling.

A few days ago, without any recipe but with a head full of ideas, I gave it a shot. The dough came out hard and cracky like I wanted and although it was a “win”, I promised myself to make a different crust for each future galettes because… well… they are worth it!

I sincerely hope you get around to try this one. We ate it as a breakfast with a hard boiled egg but by all mean be creative and eat it for lunch and dinner as well.

June 6, 2015 by Ariel 6 Comments

After living in the Portuguese area of Montreal for many years, I became a little addicted with Chorizo. As I traveled around, I noticed that every Chorizo is made a little differently and I’m starting to miss the soft and spicy version I was able to find at my beloved Portuguese grocery.

Here’s a simple recipe that brings me back to my time eating my favourite type of Chorizo.. Hope you like it!
