Pink Peppercorn Hot Chocolate
Hot chocolate and pink peppercorns. Now there’s a combination Willy Wonka didn’t think of. His loss: its liquid perfection. Found a variation to this recipe in a Dutch magazine (probably Libelle or Margriet), tried it and have been hooked ever since. There’s no cream in this so it’s a bit easier on the thighs and arteries. You can always top it with a swirl of whipped cream, though. The chocolate…
Frozen Berries With Hot Chocolate
I couldn’t suppress a smile when a friend of mine raved about this ‘special’ dessert she had eaten during one of her recent trips to London. “Frozen fruit with warmed up cream?“, I smirked. “You’re kidding, right? Oh, but that’s bound to be a real culinary triumph“, I said, trying my best not to sound too sarcastic but failing miserably. She shrugged her shoulders, waved her hand and said that…
Apple Crunch. The American Way.
I think I’ve Americanized over the years. I know I must have. So has my son. We both take to American food. One of those typical American recipes that made it into our home a few years ago is the Apple crunch. It’s a very undutch thing to make, and my guess is a lot of Dutchies were like me and never even thought of making this either. We have…
Sassy Pineapple
Just a quick recipe to show you how we like to eat our pineapple here for dessert. Well, recipe is a big word. Most of my recipes have a common denominator: savoriness. With one exception, and that is fruit. Huge chunks of fresh and sweet fruit that have a cheerful explode-in-your-mouth juiciness to them make me really happy. Pineapple -or ananas as we call it- is one of those fruits….
Strawberry Crunch
And one more old guestpost revived on Kayotic Kitchen. Not just because my kiddo came down with H1N1 flu and is very sick, but also because it would be close to a venial sin to let this recipe go to waste. Old and bad photography, but a wonderfully simple and tasty recipe. This dessert hits all the right spots and—when strawberries are in season—won’t break the bank. Must say that…
Bowl of Happiness
Now here’s an opening line for you: this was the best darn fruit salad I’ve ever had. And I mean every single word. It was utter perfection. Saintly, even. It combined fresh, sweet and light fruits such as papaya and mango with a more dense flavor like banana and the creamy avocado took it to such high levels one could not ever imagine a fruit salad to reach. Then it…
