Plum cake with bananas and buckwheat macaroons
The banana is not really one of my favorite fruit, usually only eat it in its original form, before it reaches full maturity, the rest is a fruit that does not exist, that I like it very nearly even. Last week I bought three, pretty big for my mom, a couple of days ago I called and told me: "when you come, even those taken 3 bananas because I do not eat, for me I am too great "! Obviously the fact that I do not like it at all, even the past is the prelude to the brain.
few days ago I saw a lot of posts featuring the banana, of course, but nothing that could help in breaking down barriers that my brain has constructed. I decided therefore to do completely on my own, making me inspire ongoing.
I wanted something rustic, in fact, to mitigate the strong and distinctive taste of bananas, I am left inspired by this
and I decided then that would be with buckwheat and then I added that I happened to hand, ending up some things now that I had some time in the pantry. Ingredients for a cake mold:
150 g Buckwheat flour
70 g of sugar
50 g amaretti
50 ml of milk
50 ml peanut oil
2 eggs
2 bananas
1 packet of yeast
Whisk the macaroons, to obtain a meal, add it to the buckwheat flour, sugar and the yeast, mix well.
Beat the egg yolks with milk and add them to the mixture, add oil and mix well.
steadfast Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt and add to the rest of the dough, stirring slowly from bottom to top, so it will not unmount.
Finally, add the sliced \u200b\u200bbananas.
Put the mixture in a cake tin, lined with wax paper and decorate the surface with slices of banana and amaretti whole, then sprinkle with sugar.
Bake at 180 degrees for 50 minutes.
beautiful cake, as long as he's been beautiful in the warm oven, then just pulled out of the amaretti are on the surface were sucked into the abyss. I wonder why they are formed by sti craters, some tells me so?
To my great surprise, however, the cake is delicious, but the first taste, freshly baked
not convinced me, but then, just gone cold, I really appreciated.
I do not think I'll just make it, you always see the story of my aversion to bananas, but if someone did and did not deflate, it's not that I can come to say as he did? Thanks. :-)

Mariage Half Moon Cay
plaice rolls, spinach and tomatoes
Eating alone I do not like, often end up eating a sandwich full of crap sitting in front television, with the PC in the hands and feet on the table. No, not you, is not a healthy thing, digestion is affected, but who wants to set the table??
Sometimes, however, have treated me good things and get ready and force me to put the tablecloth, complete with a pot (yes, I also happen to eat directly from the pot) and eat a quiet, ideally suited. Eating alone I do not like, often end up eating a sandwich full of crap sitting in front television, with the PC in the hands and feet on the table. No, not you, is not a healthy thing, digestion is affected, but who wants to set the table??
Yesterday I wanted to fish, I eat it often, I like it a lot, but I avoid like the plague frying or cooking does not really fit my cholesterol level. How to make tasty fillets of plaice? They, poor things, you do not have that much taste, and then it occurred to me that beautiful jar of sun-dried tomatoes (fresh ones to wait a little), does not cover the delicate flavor (non-existent) fish? No no no, I guarantee.
4 fillets of plaice
250 g fresh spinach
5 sun-dried tomatoes
breadcrumbs
grated Parmesan whatever they think the Northern League, and all those who come to their thought,
Italy is one and united and that this fact can not be questioned by a group of crazies who would like the situation was different. So I celebrate the March 17, celebrating the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy and I have no intention of negotiating with the party this Labour Day on 1 May. Calderoli understood??

Love Letters to Pinu Masterchef
I said yes. For the samples prepared by us had to get something. As available, it only takes a microwave to heat up and they asked us to do something non-perishable, I chose to make these cakes.
The idea was born last week, Pinu (my beloved elementary school teacher) was to drink tea, I asked what I could to prepare and she told me to do something without sugar, is diabetic, so I look at a moment in the pantry and I find the cherry syrup, dark chocolate, coconut, then I open the fridge and watch ricotta and then I think the phyllo dough in the freezer ... The cake was ready! Besides cherries, very few, I did not think there was anything dangerous to your health, I had added sugar and I had not even put the eggs. He has eaten well 2 and advanced them to him I put in a bag, to take home.
500 g ricotta 2 egg yolks 2 tablespoons sugar 3 tablespoons of coconut powder 20 Fabbri cherries in syrup 100 g of dark chocolate coconut powder sour
month I came last, to my great surprise, an email from Magnolia TV, told me they had seen my blog and I looked very good and original, and I wondered if I was interested to participate in the casting of a new talent for aspiring chefs.
At that time I chose these treats as a dish to bring to the casting, with some minor modification, for non-diabetics.
remember the fights, the fight, the slap (at the time the teachers did not go to jail if they gave you a slap richly deserved), but despite all this, now that we're both female, I was left with the affection and the feeling that he understood how I did it "with all my fears and my contradictions.
You made me excited about reading, with Jasmine in the country of liars, I did you thrill to the grammar, with those little cards to fill out, you made me just passion for life.
As were your teaching me to become part of who I am, I wanted to dedicate, with great affection, these love letters, I have written and maintained during the 20 years where we have not seen in response to what I've written you and that still guard jealously.
Thanks Pinu.
Serves 20 bundles:
40 sheets of phyllo dough 10x10
To decorate:
egg white for brushing
Mix ricotta cheese with 2 egg yolks, sugar and coconut. Drain the cherry juice from them and cut them into pieces big enough and incorporate the ricotta.
Fill with a teaspoon of mixture of half sheets of phyllo dough, forming a triangle joining the ends, fold the tips of the three sides inwards to form a sachet. Brush with egg white. Cover with another sheet of each packet phyllo dough, following the same procedure. brush with egg white and bake at 180 degrees until golden brown. Melt the chocolate in a bain marie, cover bundle half, sprinkle the surface of coconut powder and put half a cherry in the center, like the wax that closes the bag. Cool on a grill. And eat at will.

, we did some brainstorming about to prepare some "special", and using the bacon slowly in my mind is set up this dish. If the mussels are great with the beans, because do not put them in combination with beans? And if the beans are great with the bacon, why not use lard?
a couple of months maybe I will have occasion to do it again with fresh fava beans and tell you if I change the recipe, in the meantime ...
Ingredients for 4:
600 g floury potatoes to pasta
150 grams of flour
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan
salt
For the sauce:
200 g of mussels already cleaned 200 g of beans
30 g fat Arnad
salt, pepper
Wash the potatoes and boil in their skins in salted water until they are soft. Peel while still hot, mash with potato masher. Add the flour and cheese and mix until the dough is homogeneous. Form of snakes than 1 cm in diameter with a knife and cut small squares. Sprinkle with flour so they do not stick and leave on a pastry board.
Meanwhile cut the bacon into strips and cook them in a pan. Add the fava beans and a pinch of salt, cover and cook for about twenty minutes on low heat.
Blend to puree half the sauce and set aside.
goodies Cook potatoes in boiling salted water, when they came to the surface, drain and place in pan with beans, to which you add the mussels, previously cleaned and cooked over high heat in a large saucepan, without condiments, and puree.
Making mix with 3 tablespoons of cooking water and serve with a sprinkling of fresh pepper, garnish with a couple of mussels still in their shells.
thank Gaia and Tiziana, officers dispensers and dishes for my photos, for making guinea pigs for this experiment cooking and for making photographic assistants in the stage. On the next time will go away smoother. :-P

Hotel Corona, Bagni di Lucca, during our short tour to search time of booking: "If you like, with only 10 € plus we give you a room with a river view" - "no thanks, is fine with me any room, but as it will be my birthday, if he wants to reward myself and comfortable in our room overlooking the river, at the same price ...". Do not believe it, but we were satisfied!
If last year I had followed almost faithfully, always use a little sugar, this time I have limited sugar dramatically, resulting in a bitter orange marmalade, plus I added a pinch of ginger that evil never does.
Ingredients:
Score the peel of oranges with a fork in several places and soak in water for 24 hours, changing water 3 or 4 times.
Slice the oranges very thinly and cook them in a nonstick saucepan over low heat for 20 minutes, then add sugar and ginger and cook over low heat for a ' Oretta or until it reaches the consistency you want. Meanwhile,
sterilize the jars, so , pour the hot jam, seal tightly and let them cool upside down.
not tell you to use organic oranges, because I personally have used the ones I had at home, so I hope it is good the same and if you have the bio, well, so much the better!
that beautiful orange tulip in the photo is part of a wonderful deck that Phil gave me yesterday, I do not like Valentine's Day and I am sure that for him it means nothing, then I think a mere coincidence, but that bunch of flowers, the first that gives me, I just filled my heart with joy.
With this recipe I participate in the contest
