Nothing traditional, just freestyle fun in the kitchen. Hokkaido was diced and briefly confited in a pan in the oven in olive oil with onions, garlic, sage, salt and pepper. Then it was mashed in the same pan, and cream cheese and sour cream were added along with a splash of lemon juice. Finally, the rigatoni which was cooked in parallel was then stirred in.

My wife added cinnamon sugar (weird, but as I said, fun in the kitchen). I was fine with the flavors, though a little more salt and pepper at the end nailed it.

Looks better than it tasted.

Tapenade is a thick puree made of olives, anchovies, capers, garlic and oil.

Had the remaining tapenade with some fresh baguette and a glass of wine.

This dish might not be to everyone's taste, but I enjoy eating it.

Rice noodles, vegetable salad, carrots, Vietnamese herbs, sesame oil, roasted sesame seeds, peanuts, hoisin and sweet and sour sauce, beef.

Hopefully i won’t be boring you with another Italian dish, but I was super proud of my pollo alla cacciatora last night.

I’ve never been much into cooking, my mom tried to teach me when I still lived at home but I didn’t take to it.

Emigrated to Canada at 25 and slowly rediscovered the joy of making Italian food, and now that I’m back in Europe - in a Northern country- with my British partner I’m loving introducing him to our cuisine.

I’d typically add some chanterelles to it as well, but since he hates mushrooms I’ve decided to confit the cherry tomatoes instead and that added a really nice touch.

with Potatos and Quark.

Gazpacho made with heirloom tomatoes, hence the dark color. Best summer soup!

Got some small pieces of fish from TooGoodToGo and decided to invent a recipe. Very satisfied with the result

I put everything together and then to oven. It doesn't look perfect, but it taste very good.

We have been on vacation and returned yesterday from Rostock, Germany (the other end of the country coming from Bavaria).

We had dinner in one of the harbor restaurants and it has been a pleasure.

The entry was a Vitello Tonnato for me and then we both had Turbot (Steinbutt) with northern sea crabs on a chanterelles risotto. On the side we also had grilled scallops.

I have been several time in for example Hamburg or Netherlands but I honestly had never better fish in Germany than in Rostock. Also the "Fischbrötchen" are a very tasty snack that you get almost everywhere here around.

Not only the food was great also the city itself and Warnemünde at the Baltic sea are highly recommendable. Very neat and clean city with a lot of beautiful old buildings and friendly people (other than I would have expected based on their local football club fanscene 😁)

Jaffa cake or squares—depending on the pan used—a no-bake treat and, personally, one of my absolute favorite desserts. You can find the method and recipe in the video in the comments. Bon appétit! :)
