An excellent guide from VideoJug that sorted out a lot of the problems I had with making Falafel. Using this recipe you will get a proper dry mixture that wont fall apart or turn into a puddle.
Now obviously, you can just as well fry them in a pan, or bake them in the oven.
I’ve become a pragmatic semi-vegetarian over the last six months. That is, not because of ethics but purely on a health basis and when it is practical. It took some time to build an entirely new set of recipes and procedures, and I could still use a few more for meal rotation, but overall [...]
Seeing as it was summer and all, I wanted to try some grilling. It’s been years since I last grilled anything. Mostly because I don’t own a grill (any longer) and partly because of the inconvenience, alleged carcinogenic properties of the cooking process.
Nevertheless, the idea of grilling does entice me somewhat. So I started looking [...]
Two hours in the woods, and in transit, for four litres of blueberries. Plus another hour maybe cleaning up and packaging them for freezing. Probably makes for some fairly expensive blueberries. Then again, there is nothing like being in the woods in the summer. Flies crawling, wasps buzzing and the crisp underbrush crackling under your [...]
Rice Krispies meringue with Mascarpone and chocolate cream, strawberries.
Random observation: Still the best lozenge on the market. What I find a bit sad though is the way they’ve jumped on the artificial sweetener bandwagon with some of the newer flavours.
Something new for the kitchen. Just to make a note of it. I managed to find the Exido sandwich maker on sale at a bargain price. 135 SEK. I’ve been looking for a good sandwich maker for some time so considering the price and Exido’s stunning test results in a recent test for Swedish interior [...]
It is often with an uneasy ambivalence that I approach new foods and food culture. But when you have a few days off, like around Easter, and get into the spirit of things, I at least try to broaden my horizons and indulge myself a little. Even if it is uphill all the way to [...]
A leap of faith for sure. I have a real aversion towards beans and peas and such. But served with a homemade Mexican seasoning mix, I suppose one can make an exception. Also, this means no more buying of seasoning mixes. What a fraud.
I don’t know about the safety of Sucralose, which was only approved in the European Union as late as 2004, but from a taste bud perspective it sure is quite awful. Normally I would be all for low-carb food, chlorocarbon or not, but this really fails to impress. Especially since manufacturers go overboard and add [...]
