I make ‘1-Hour Focaccia’ when I am in hurry. Using the recipe, you really can make yummy thin bread in 1 hour from scratch. However, when I have a little more time, this ‘Easy Focaccia’ tastes nicer and has a better texture. If you want to impress your guests tonight, it’s not too late to …
I found some leftover Silken Tofu in the fridge. I decided to make Tofu Doughnuts. You need No Egg and No Dairy products to make these doughnuts. Silken Tofu is basically thickened Soy Milk. It can be used for baking a variety of things. Today I coated them with ‘Kinako’ Sugar. ‘Kinako’ is finely ground …
Apple Cake, Apple Pie, Apple Clafoutis, Apple Pancakes, Apple Crumble, … I have made so many Apple desserts and snacks, but I have never tried to add Apple to Doughnuts. So, I tried. First I grated Apple and ended up adding a lot more Flour than I wished to add because of the juice from …
My ‘Panettone Style Sweet Bread’ is easy to make, but it takes time and folding the Mixed Fruit into the dough is not super easy, I admit. Today I tried to make the same Sweet Bread in a different way. I didn’t knead the dough. I just mixed everything together with extra Milk and made …
At Christmas time every year, I wanted to make Panettone, but I have never tried it. Because I didn’t have a suitable cake tin and didn’t want to buy rather expensive Panettone paper cases. The other day, when I was making a soup, I looked at the saucepan and thought it was a good size …
I have been loving ‘Pampushky’, Ukrainian Bread Rolls, since I discovered them. ‘Pampushky’ dough is made with Eggs and they have similar texture to Doughnuts. They can be savoury OR sweet. My ‘Easter Pampushky’ are absolutely delicious. Today I made savoury ones and topped with Cheese and Bacon. I knew they would taste great and …
I wanted to make 100% Oats Bread and I looked for recipes. There are not many recipes for Oats Bread that can be made without Wheat Flour. I tried a recipe but it was a very dodgy one and the dough turned like clay. That failure inspired me to make my own recipe for 100% …
I rarely make Pizza at home, but I make Flammkuchen very often. Flammkuchen is not well known in Melbourne where I live. It’s a pity people don’t know about it. Flammkuchen is sometimes called ‘German Pizza’ and it is quite easy to make at home. Toppings can be anything. Today I made slightly sweet one …
I must credit my friend Shelley for this recipe. The other day, she cooked 4 different Pizzas for my husband and me, and one of them was Mushroom and Black Olive Pizza, that inspired me to make this Flammkuchen. ‘Do not spread fresh Mushrooms over the Pizza base as a fair bit of water comes …
I have made all sorts of Scones in my life. I often add Fruit, Chocolate, Nuts and Seeds, Pumpkin, Banana, Coffee, Earl Grey Tea, Matcha, etc. Why have I never ever thought of adding ‘Tsubu-an’ (Sweet Azuki Paste)? Today I had some leftover ‘Tsubu-an’. I was planning to use it for a cake, then I …
I used to make these doughnuts with finely grated Carrot only. One day I added some leftover canned crushed Pineapple, which I always add to ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’, the flavour was improved and I liked it very much. Then I started adding Pineapple. Carrot only version is also very nice. If you use just …
Flammkuchen (OR Flammekueche) is not well-known in Australia. Do you know it? I am a big fan of Flammkuchen. Probably I like it more than Italian Pizza and I make it often. I heard that there are some regional variations, but most commonly Sour Cream is used. It’s surprisingly easy to make and it is …
