Black Damask Cardstock

of Lords tea cakes, chocolate and citron steamed


If there was a tea that still retains a bit of mystery to me is the rooibos. Red Tea, naturally caffeine free, I find it moderately palatable natural. However, flavored, it becomes a very pleasant companion for the palate and for those who like to drink tea in the evening instead of tea. Magnet particularly bergamot, tea of Lords "Rooibos" Palace of teas he got it. This is an Earl Grey with the powerful scent of bergamot.

To give him the reply, I made cupcakes with chocolate steamed from a recipe I swiped at Julie Andrieu (I'll tell you soon) and revisited in my way adding candied citron. The steaming gives a soft texture but not crispy on top and may confuse some people when it comes to cake. The taste of tea blends with the aromas of chocolate and candied citron with happiness. Without sugar or butter, knows that sweetness longer be any light ...

Exchanging Of Rings Wording 3

few ideas around with Parmesan Alba Pezon


Saturday morning I spent two hours in the kitchen of Alba Pezon where I discovered four ideas - 2 courses, 2 desserts - to use the Parmesan.

Recognizable by its marking Parmigiano Reggiano "printed directly on the birth of the wheel, plus the month and year of production of casein and a plate on which there is a unique identification code . This makes it possible to identify and draw the wheel.

When you buy, be sure that the wheel is not open for too long, the cheese would be harder. If you obtain the vacuum, remember that once opened, you have 3 weeks to enjoy it. Afterwards, the flavors are less dense and cheese will also be cured.


In flat.
For fans of sweet and sour dish, the lasagna Pears and Parmesan 24 months refining will seduce them. Provide very thin sheets of lasagne, pears (like conferences) that take place for cooking. Place in oven at 150 ° C for 30 minutes. It's ready!

You amaze your friends by making a risotto with red wine from Burgundy (replacing the stock). Freshly grated Parmesan cheese - 30 months refining - are sprinkled at the end of cooking.


for dessert.
If I had not known I have not found that pannacotta contained Parmesan 18 months refining . Freshly grated, it is integrated with the cream and bring to a simmer with a touch of sugar. Basically glass jars, Alba had filed a spoonful of jelly and berries before serving, a few drops of good balsamic vinegar. An amazing mix!


With these grissinis trimmed orange marmalade and a little Parmesan 18 months refining freshly grated, you amaze many. Just make a bread dough (for extra crunch, use semolina flour), spread the dough and sprinkle with half of marmalade and cheese. Fold in half, cutting sticks and roll them to stretch. Bake 15 minutes in a mad preheated to 230 ° C and then decreased to 200 ° C. Tasted once it has warmed, they are soft. Two hours later they will be drier. See for yourself as you prefer.

surprises winter pears and chestnuts


The period before Christmas is often already a sweet moment of celebration between making small Christmas cakes , slices of stollen eaten as a snack or even chocolates that make me Eye in the office or at home. What I like in these times, it is these surprises that are prepared, the idea to a different menu, to wrap presents an original or shifted. Christmas is the imagination to please (and have fun, do not hide things). These tarts

surprises probably contain a duo that I love: the nuts and pears. The chestnut cream form, it's winter, when the climate is harsh and to do full of energy and appetite. Pear with the clementine is a fruit choice at this time, so different depending on the variety.


And the whipped cream on top, is it really useful? Not necessarily, but these tarts are much less demanding without. For lazy, you can even opt for the whipped cream into a bomb. Must be large domes (it's much better!) And serve immediately, otherwise they tend to sag.
