Black Forest Entremet (vegan)

Psychedelic Halloween Project 🙂 I love Halloween and I love entremets, so I wanted to make something special to have fun at home, since we really do not have a choice about where the entertainment should take place at the moment.  I do not usually use food colouring and if I do I use beetroot […]

Pomegranate, kiwi and pistachio tartlets (vegan)

I love pomegranate. It’s sweet and juicy and looks like a chest full of sparkly rubies. However, maybe because it’s difficult to eat when you are not at home, or because it takes quite a bit to clean it or for other mysterious forms of laziness, I just rarely buy it. Even though when I […]

Caramelised red onion and butternut squash quiche (vegan, gf)

As an Oddbox subscriber, I get to experience the “morning of Christmas” feeling every week – even though I always check first what’s going to be in the box, party for curiosity and partly for meal planning during the week, which, I know, sounds super boring but also having both time and mind consuming jobs, my […]

Juniper Onion Tarte Tatin (vegan)

This is a very simple recipe, puff pastry excluded. When I learnt how to make my own vegan puff pastry I was overjoyed – the store bought one, even the allergen free one, sometimes I found it difficult to digest. In addition, I have to say that the home made version tastes better than the […]

TiramisĂą Mousse Cake (vegan)

I prepared this recipe for my husband’s birthday, as he is one of the greatest (the greatest, perhaps) fans of tiramisu. Tiramisu is a pretty classic and famous Italian dessert, which in its original version consists of coffee soaked savoiardi (super soft biscuits made with egg whites), mascarpone cream and cocoa powder. Tiramisu is usually […]

Vegan “curry pan”

Okay, these are not proper curry pans – this recipe is my version of the amazing Tim Anderson’s version from Tokyo Stories – I just veganised it, and air fried it and added some lighter options and some different possible fillings, because I made this quite often and it rarely happened that I had the […]

Trou Normand Entremet (vegan)

I love autumn. I just love it: the colours of the leaves matches my hair, it’s plaid everywhere, there is Halloween and pre-Christmas and it’s apple season. People feel like drinking liqueur – well, I do – and you get to wear cute jackets without actually freezing.  Over one year ago, the last holiday we […]

Currant and cranberry cake (vegan)

When I want to bake something new and come up with ideas, it’s easier if I get my husband to assign me a specific task. Fruit tart. Something with chocolate. Something soft. These indications will do. When my husband uttered the sentence “fruit cake, or like a cake with sultanas or other dried fruit, but […]

Hello!

My name is Miriam, I am a research scientist but almost every evening I trade my lab gown for an apron (no, I really don’t, I actually don’t wear aprons, the thrill of vegan cream stains on my pullovers is something I wouldn’t give up) and bake. Either because of ethical or health reasons, some […]
