Harissa Bean Dip
A simple white bean dip gets kicked up a notch with a few tablespoons of spiced red pepper paste - harissa! I've been throwing it in everything, but this dip has got to be one of my favorites. I serve it here with homemade flax crackers, but any of your favorite crackers, toasted bread, or sliced veggies would pair great with this saucy dip!

Crispy chicken legs with a mustard crust
Well I suppose I am gone for a month now and the truth is I missed you guys. However this getaway was such a must if I wanted to concentrate in the one and unique event of my graduation. So now I'm a biologist with a degree and I'm bananas about this, plus I have some brilliant plans for the near future. But, first I will share with you the most simple recipe (like all delicious recipes of this world) for crispy chicken legs.

Wilted Arugula with Anchovies and Fried Bread Crumbs

Yogurt with marzipan, poppy seeds & walnuts
I have news for you, brilliant news! I may disappeared for a while from the face of the internet, but I returned with (delicious) discoveries. Take, therefore, a chair, sit down and listen to me very very carefully. I have for you a perfect-to-the-moon-and-back recipe. Well, it's not exactly a recipe, but a more how-to mix-3-ingredients kind of fancy description. When you purchase the ingredients and you try it, come back to discuss your experience. [...] Isn't the whole world's love in a bowl? Christmas in edible form? It is, right? I know I know, with what do you think that I survive the past weeks?

Spanish Yaki Onigiri
When I was a small child living in Nakamichi, Japan my favorite thing to eat was yaki onigiri. (which translates to grilled triangular shaped rice) However as much as I love all Japanese food, there are exceptions which include Umeboshi (pickled plums), which resulted in my (spanish) mother replacing the filling of my yaki onigiris with olives. This only resulted in it becoming more delicious, which proves that growing up ethnically confused results in some delicious cross cultural food combinations. Sadly because I no longer live in Japan, I do not have a very tiny but powerful broiler right underneath the stove, although I didn't have an oven back then making cake baking pretty impossible.

Danish Cucumbers
These crisp cucumbers were a favorite during hot summers on my grandparents' farm in New Hampshire. Cucumbers are thinly sliced, salted and pressed with a weight in the fridge, drawing out much of the excess moisture. They’re then drained, tossed with apple cider vinegar and dipped in sour cream or crème fraîche if you're feeling fancy. Refreshing, extremely simple and a great alternative to a bowl of chips.
Celery and apple slaw
This is one of my favourite coleslaw recipe, a refreshing as a side dish or topping for a burger or any other sandwich.
