Creamy Tarako Pasta (Cod Roe Pasta)
Posted in: Japanese - Friday, May 17 2013
It’s only natural that a month after returning from my Tokyo holiday, I have a distinct hankering for Japanese food.

There are of course still many Japanese foods that are hard [...]

Chowder (With Clams)
Posted in: Thermomix - Tuesday, April 09 2013

Gluten Free Graham Crackers
Posted in: Thermomix - Monday, March 11 2013
While I was on the raw food diet earlier this year I dabbled with making flourless, dehydrated crackers using everything from buckwheat, almond meal and linseed. Some crackers came out quite nicely whereas others were interesting to put it mildly. They were still cracker-like though and very much appreciated during a time when all I [...]
