If you are cookbook maniac just as I am, you probably have heard about the book Persiana from the author Sabrina Ghayour? This is her second book that recently was published in Dutch. From the book I have chosen a Persian stew with quince and saffron. In the book its made with lamb but I decided to make it with celeriac instead.
Condiments: make your own vinegar, harissa and hot sauce was released in Sweden in 2015, but just recently it appeared here in Holland translated and today I have the pleasure to review the book. I also have chosen a super recipe. So simple yet so incredibly useful; your own homemade dehydrated veggie bouillon!
Finally time for a new book review! The lovely Swedish Mandelmanns köksbok and two recipes from the book. Today I make garlic in mint oil and a fabulous garlic cream!
Sometimes you get a book in your hand that you wish you had written yourself. This book is one just like that. The first time I flipped through it, I didn’t know where I should look or how fast I could read everything. Everything looks so terrible good in this book! Just like the Viennese nougat that I’m making from the book…
After a long vacation finally the book reviews are back on the blog. And oh, theres so many fun, good and inspiring cookbooks released since the summer! Today I have a review of a Swedish book called Baka vego and recipes for apple syrup and lemon curd.
My love for the arabic kitchen is growing every day since a number of years. So diverse and such an exciting kitchen! I was therefore thrilled to go to the book presentation for this Dutch book, My arabic kitchen by Mounir Toub. Original titel of the book Mijn arabische keuken.
The summer is the prime time for BBQ! Julius Jaspers, a well-known chef in the Netherlands knows that. He, a big enthusiast for barbecuing, have in the book BBQ bijbel collected al his knowledge about the subject. And I must say, it really covers everything!
Preservation techniques, isn’t that something our grandma’s did? Absolutely, but you can’t deny that it’s all coming back! The cookbooks in both Netherlands and Sweden are filled with it meaning so much fun to dig into! Today a book review of the Dutch book Jam and zuur by Philippine Van der Goes and an absolutely wonderful recipe on a spicy peach chutney.
I really like beans and lentils! And so does the Dutch author Joke Boon. She even wrote a complete book about al different kinds of beans and lentils, Bonen! (in english Beans!). She also thought of the magnificent chickpea cake that you get as a recipe of in this post. Oh do try it!
It’s time for another Swedish cooking book! This time I have chosen a book written by a Swedish famous chef Tareq Taylor; Mat som gör gott (in translation Food that do good). its al about food that makes you feel good, strong, vibrant and healthy. It was of course a must for me to read this one!
