Wenn I saw these beautiful Potatoes at Tastespotting I fell in love on the first sight. She was so beautiful with her slices fanned out. So I checked the recipe and realized that this elegant Potato is easy to prepare, too! I decided to use the recipe on Good Mood Food, which was the simplest recipe. You need only some potatoes, butter, coarse sea salt, a knife and a wooden spoon. Continue reading
Recipes for cooking are rare in this blog. Its not because I do not cook, but while baking means time for relax cooking is an everyday work for me. But this stamppot is one of my favourites and deserves its own post.
I get the recipe with my weekly bag with organic produced vegetable and now I am cooking it when ever I have endives in this bag. Its a perfect recipe for me: mashed potatos with some green vegetable – I love this kind of dishes.
I am back from my holidays and I am back in the chaos. The lab I am working in is moving into a new building and after two years of postponeing the university preponed it now. So instead of having a whole week to pack my stuff in lab only the weekend was left. When we came back I go dirctly to the lab. I was so relived that I sorted everything in advance!
The moving itself was very exhausting and I was to tired to write something in my blog or even to read other blogs. But the main part is now done and today I have a day off because we have a security inspection. We Ph.d. students should stay away because the less persons are around the less mistakes can be done (like entering a lab without labcoat).
So I have time for answering comments, reading other blogs, writing new posts and enjoying Susans weekly Yeastspotting. Of course I bake a little bit, too. A soft whole wheat potato bread! Continue reading
When I see the topic of the 17. Bread Baking Day this recipe came directly to my mind. I was thinking about trying it for a longer time, I just had no opportunity untill now. I knew the methode to form the stars allready from Bertinets “Dough”. Its so stunning, how two simple cuts could have such a nice effect!
For cooking the potatos I used this time the microwave. Its a simple trick, my collogues use for cooking potatos for lunch at work. Just wash the potatos and then pierce them with a fork for four or five times. Then put the wet potatos to a plate, suitable for microwaves, cover them and cook them at 750 Watt for 2 to 5 minutes, depending on their size. Continue reading
