RECIPES
Valentine's Day Dishes, or a Dinner Menu II, Part 1 – Shirley Temple
Shirley Temple is a sensual aperitif that whets the appetite for the courses to come and loosens up the mood a little.
Churros with Chocolate Sauce
Churros are a traditional Spanish fried dessert, sold at street stalls and served with hot chocolate or sprinkled with cinnamon.
Cheese Pączki
Cheese pączki are incredibly easy to make. And they disappear faster than you can make them.
Square Bite-Size Doughnuts – Schmalzgebäck
If you know German markets, you probably know these doughnuts: small, tasty, fluffy and covered in powdered sugar. Just right for one bite.
Gniazdka, Spanish or Viennese Doughnuts
They're plump, delicate, hollow inside and slightly moist. Simply delicious. Too delicious, because I struggled so hard not to eat them all ;)
Baked Pączki (Polish Doughnuts)
Light, tender, lower-calorie, easy-to-make and simply delicious baked pączki (Polish doughnuts) - no deep frying needed.
Almond Faworki
Almond faworki: flat, tender, cookie-like Polish fried pastry ribbons with a delicate almond flavor, perfect for Fat Thursday.
Oranges in Syrup
Oranges simmered in a coffee syrup and sprinkled with chopped pistachios: an easy dessert that's a great change from fresh oranges.
New Year's Faworki Roses
Faworki roses, just like faworki themselves, are a snack everyone probably knows. At my house we made them for almost every New Year's Eve at home.
