Dani's marinated beef

This  recipe came out of the bat just like that! I was thinking about an easy and light, yet tasty way to cook some beef for dinner and while I was in the train heading back home, I thought that lemon and olive oil are always a good match! All you need to do is [...]

Grekasia Lamb

Lamb…do I like it? You guys would expect me to say YES, since I grew up in the so called “Grecia Salentina” (greek salento) just a few hours away from Greece…well, emm… I’m sorry to disappoint you but NO, I don’t like lamb meat. However I still use it for cooking and [...]

The Original Italian Homemade Pasta

After the homemade ravioli here we go with an other kind of homemade pasta. Last Sunday morning to inaugurate my new pasta machine I have decided to make some tagliatelle. This is my grandma’s recipe, so it is the Original One.

The machine I have allows me to prepare lasagna, tagliatelle and spaghetti [...]

Chocolate Cupcakes

And here we go…it’s Monday again, back to waking up at 7 am, back to commuting for one hour in the crowded train of Shanghai, back to work…:( This morning when the alarm rang I felt like someone was waking me up in the middle of the night…I could have kept sleeping forever. Isn’t that [...]

Eggplant Rolls

Eggplant makes me think of the Summer, warm weather, the beach and the sun…don’t ask me why, these are random connections I do in my mind…anyways, the temperature has started getting warmer and it finally feels like we can say goodbye to the Winter, put our coats and sweaters in the closet and finally enjoy [...]

Mushroom cream Tagliatelle

The Mushroom cream tagliatelle is one of my favorite dish. Yesterday night I had a farewell dinner to see off my friend Carl who is moving to Hong Kong for 8 months and I served this plate which everyone seemed to like…hopefully…unless they were all faking of liking it…..no, no…they loved it…yeah, yeah… I think [...]

Dani's Creamberry Crostata

A crostata is an Italian baked dessert tart, and a form of pie. It is traditionally prepared by folding the edges of the dough over the top of the jam/marmalade filling,

There are a hundred different ways to prepare it, generally each family has its own personal recipe with more or less eggs, with [...]

Green Peas Pasta Pie

This recipe came out just like that. Last Sunday night after a weekend spent outdoors with a picnic on Saturday and a delicious brunch at Boxing Cat with lots of beer and tasty food, I found myself in the kitchen with almost nothing left in the fridge. All I had was less than a half [...]

Gelatine free Yogurt Cake

You might wonder why I choosed such I name for this recipe…well, it is simple!  After the success of the Strawberry Cream, where I haven’t use any gelatin and since I still can’t find it anywhere close to where I live, I have decided to try and make this yogurt cake with just using corn [...]

Dani’s secret Strawberry Cream

After the Chocolate Syrup and the Caramel Cream, today I’ll show you how to make an other delicious topping.

This time of the year strawberries are everywhere and are also pretty cheap. To prepare toppings made out of fruits it is generally necessary to use gelatine, unfortunatelly I ran out of it and I couldn‘t find [...]
