Walnut tarts
Now, doesn’t this look crispy? And indeed it was. I stumbled upon this recipe when browsing through the wonderful cookbook Vefa’s kitchen. As soon as I read it, I could feel the crunch of the filo pastry in my mouth.
Basler Läckerli ice cream
I enjoy making ice cream at home because I can make various flavours that the great gods of Nestle did not yet remember to put on offer. One of the flavours that has become a firm favourite Basler Läckerli ice cream.
Lamb shoulder in the oven
Another recipe without a photo, but just as well. This dish is not for the faint of heart–or those in a hurry. It is spring, lamb season, so we are indulging a bit in Swiss lamb. Bone-in lamb shoulder is an amazingly good value here, and costs less than bio chicken per kg. This is a recipe inspired by my Dad’s preparation and some stricter guidelines from Jamie Oliver.
Steak dinner
This is a dinner for special occasions. It is deceptively simple, and uses the most cutting edge cooking technology we have at home: a precision cooker.
