Pita

We are enjoying our Artisan Bread book so much that we couldn't wait to try
this recipe for Pita.

Mother's Day Breakfast

Mother's Day was the perfect occasion to try a new recipe for French
brioche. The result was amazing when combined with Nutella and fresh
raspberries.

Bibingka

This cake is cooked in banana leaf, another classic from the Philippines.

Puto

Puto is a steamed cake, a classic from the Philippines.

Pizza time!

We were both inspired by the arrival of new vegetable at the farmers market
and we thought they would go great in a homemade pizza. The first pizza had
roasted vegetables and Spanish anchovies. The second one is a combination of
tomatoes and rocket (arugula).

Artisan Bread

This is the main recipe of our book "Artisan Bread in five minutes a day."
This is a simple but delicious and versatile while artisan bread recipe.
From a simple base for garlic bread to the morning toast with Nutella.

First pasta with seasonal ingredients

The first produce we got this year from a farmers market is field spinach.
This simple and vitamine-rich vegetable inspired us to try this pasta with
shrimp.

Homemade sushi

We made sushi at home this winter. We still need to work on it but we think
we got the basic principle: make the rice right and the rest will follow!

Roasting our own coffee

We roasted our own coffee not too long ago. The results were amazing. Even
though we prefer darker roasts, with this air popcorn machine method we were
only able to obtain a more subtle flavour. The fresh aroma of these roasted
beans were amazing.

Breakfast in Argentina

This mocha coffee and freshly baked croissants complement each other at
Susana Marzola's Café in Villa María, Argentina.
