three apple tart

Leave a comment
Cakes + Cookies

…which does not mean, that only three apples are necessary to make this beautiful tart. On the contrary: apples are its main ingredient. They come in three variations (thus the the name) and three layers. Grated apples mixed with almond butter, a layer of sliced apples and a glaze of apple juice thickened with kuzu. It’s macrobiotic (a Steve Acuff recipe), vegan and free of added sugar. Feel free to use any kind of apple […]

In our internal ranking system the giant bean soup unanimously scored a 10, which translates to 3 Michelin stars, 7 golden ladles or 5 chef’s hats. The combination of veggies and beans results in a humble yet luxurious comfort food. Root vegetables, especially burdock root, are very strengthening and make for a warming winter dish, much needed in the cold month of March. giant bean soup Ingredients: 400g giant beans, canned1 tablespoon olive oil1 onion, […]

gravad lax carrots

dressings / Salads / Snacks

It all began with an intriguing recipe which promised the taste and the feeling of gravad lax by letting soak the carrots in a sophisticated marinade. In my perception the carrot strips developed a multi-aromatic taste with no ingredient overpowering the others. Not even the algae as expected. I should say that this recipe will not replicate the flavour of gravad lax. Rather the carrots no longer taste like carrots and gain a rich aroma […]

Drinks / Guest Post

guest post by Lenka Over the years, I have changed lots of parameters regarding how I drink my coffee. If there’s one constant in my ritual, it’s that I have always enjoyed it most with milk, or any other “vegetable drink” that turns it a smooth, satisfying shade of brown—which, to me, would be the shade of a river after heavy rainfall, or the one of kraft paper. If you’re vegan, or just trying to […]

I just adore pears. Cute butt shapes and so many ways to prepare them. They are delicious with game, paired with elderberries and quinces for jam , poached or simply eaten out of hand. My pear tree had very little water and a lot of sun this summer and proudly presented me with seven (wow!) ripe pears. Here’s the recipe how I poached them with some lovely spices for my birthday lunch. poached pear with vanilla […]
