I’ve made this jam while thinking about cold autumn and winter days. Nothing is better for me then a cup of a hot tea or coffee with a flavorous jam when I feel sick. A raspberry jam reminds me about my childhood. My mum used to make a classic jam, she boiled it for many hours until jam became […]

My favourite season has started and it means that I will have a lot of time for new seasonal experiments. How I love the start of new season! I also will be glad to hear about your favourite food ideas! The fall season also means plenty of vegetables. Very rich, deep tastes of butternut squash, […]
Summer is for simple and quick to prepare treats because you have so many things to do while the sun is shining and the days are so long. Last weekend was very hot in London and I didn’t want to bake anything, but I had beautiful berries from a farm market and decided to make simple […]
Nowadays we can buy any jam we want in the supermarket. There are plenty of flavours: classic sweet and savoury, herbed jams, vegetable jams, etc… I can’t call myself a person who make a huge amount of jam every season, but there is always something magical in “jam-making” process.

This is one of my mum’s recipes. I like making recipes which my mum used to make many years ago for my own family. Isn’t it magical? I’ve changed my mum’s recipe a little which I so loved in my childhood and now. Hand pies with the eggs+onions+dill filling. Actually I’ve changed the only dough: my mum used an […]

Because it seemed to be a very summer, easy, light cake but the main reason was that I adore thin crêpes. I love […]
While talking about eggs for breakfast my two favourite ways to cook them are poached and scrambled. But I love to make every breakfast special. I never make two same breakfast in a row. That’s why I need a huge number of breakfast ideas. Frittata is not one of the boring options. I have some ingredients that […]
Summer is perfect for one-day trips, picnics and just for enjoying a lunch sitting on the grass in the park. London parks are so overcrowded in this period. And it’s amazing! Me, Nick and our beagle Chantal adore to go to the parks on weekends. I like to make lunch, pack it and eat it outdoors. […]
I don’t want to write a lot about scones. You know how much I like this kind of pastry because of their simplicity as well as their taste. Even if you are afraid to make pastry you might make good scones! Few days ago while deciding which recipe to share I thought that I have a […]
I honestly think that one of the best way to utilise summer berries are crumbles and cobblers. Because it is quick, it’s as much healthy as it could be besides raw berries and it doesn’t need your cooking skills. It’s a perfect way to make delicious dessert when your friends or parents call and tell that […]
