When I think of Summer meals I think about vibrant colours, healthy greens & a sense of ease & lightness. And while a soup on first glance might not sound like the obvious choice in summer, this light & fresh curry noodle soup is a perfect dish for this time of year. When the temperatures rise outside we want to make things easy for our bodies. Having to bring food up to body temperature is actually something that has our body & ...
Curry Noodle Soup with Green Veggies
Strawberry White Chocolate Swiss Roll
There's something about strawberries and white chocolate that makes anything with those two ingredients irresistible to me. Maybe it's a childhood memory. Maybe it's because the lightness of the strawberries just perfectly counteracts to the heavy sweetness of white chocolate. Whatever it is, it just has me wrapped around its finger. A swiss roll, or "Biskuitroulade" we Austrians call it, is usually not the cake I make on the regular. But this ...

Strawberry Mascarpone Coconut Cake & Spring Vibes
Wow! 2020 has been moving fast! It's already spring here and temperatures are starting to rise into the 20°C. But, while we would much rather spend our days at the beach, we're confined to our homes due to the Covid-19 outbreaks around the world.

A chance to really connect with each other, even though we cannot ...
Süß-sauer eingelegte Kirschtomaten
Tomaten, Tomaten, Tomaten! Es geht doch einfach nichts über knackige, sonnengereifte Tomaten direkt vom Strauch, oder!? Weil ich die kleinen, roten Dinger einfach soooo liebe, pflanze ich anfangs der Saison auch einfach immer zu viele der Nachtschattengewächse in mein kleines Beet. Aber wer kann sich bei der Auswahl der Sorten mit klingenden Namen wie Black Zebra Cherry, Primavera oder Lady Birdy auch zurück halten. Ich mich auf jeden Fall ...
