Light and delicate, these salmon & cream cheese crêpes are perfect for any time of the day, as well as a great savoury addition to Pancake Day.

Food for thought
in Food for thought, Inspiration -Today’s food for thought is all about pretty eggs, floral ice cubes, the future of Hollywood and the charm of college radio. I’ve been at home for the last few days and I could not be happier; things are both relaxed and very stressed, loving and intense, and all around overwhelming. I’ve been spending my time […]
How to read a recipe
in Inspiration -Does this sound a little patronising? It’s really not. I promise. I don’t have all the answers, I’m no authority, but I really really love a good story. And a good treasure hunt. And a good old list. Reading a recipe is not just about reading the damn thing. It’s pretty much a map of a […]
Caramel & cinnamon dark chocolate brownies
in Desserts, Taste -HAPPY NEW YEAR! The first recipe for 2017 has to be a special one, am I right?* We need something exciting and easy on the eyes, but also kinda easy in general too, as it is only the beginning of the year and we need to pace ourselves and get back in the game gently, yet […]
Happy Holidays!
in Inspiration -Christmas is just one short breath away! I literally cannot wait for the 25th and the week until the new year.

in Savoury, Taste -I know it’s almost Christmas (wait, what???) and all I should be thinking of is presents (edible or otherwise) and delicious seasonal desserts. I know.

Persimmon & apple french toast
in Breakfast, Taste -My love for breakfast has been well documented here. I’m down for almost anything, almost every morning. Οn week days, I like to keep things simple with quick smoothies, full of goodness and flavour, or crunchy and perfectly sweet homemade granola, a nutty bar or hot and creamy quinoa. Some days though call for eggs […]
Cranberry, dark chocolate & pistachio pavlovas
in Desserts, Taste -I’ve been doing a lot of baking the last couple of weeks. Maybe it’s because of the cold and gloomy weather, which increases my longing for nesting and quiet nights in. So I bake. I measure, stir and fold; I go back to familiar recipes and test out new ones. I gather ingredients– sometimes carefully, […]
Chocolate & coconut spider cakes
in Desserts, Taste -Less than a week. That’s how long there’s left before Halloween- not that I’m counting. For the past few years, this time in October I get all excited and giddy and spend a ridiculous amount of time decorating the house, testing recipes (this candied salty cashew popcorn and these fruity and spicy cookies are among my […]
Pesto, bacon & fried egg sandwich
in Breakfast, Savoury, Small bites, Taste -Well, would you look at this post title? Some of my favourite words ever, all together: pesto, bacon & fried egg sandwich. I could really write (and eat) this all day. And actually, I did, I spent a whole day this summer having this for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s that good (and that easy).
