Thanksgiving Apple and Pumpkin Pie

Thanksgiving Apple and Pumpkin Pie

I know that celebrating Thanksgiving is a bit of a controversial topic nowadays.     I understand the underlying causes of the first celebration, but I also believe that giving thanks is a great excuse to celebrate.     So, acknowledging that fact, I decided to incorporate pumpkin as an homage to Native Americans in my apple pie recipe this year.      In Spain, Thanksgiving is something we don’t really celebrate.     It’s become something known because of…

Logro帽o – What I ate – January 2020 (Day 1)

Logro帽o – What I ate – January 2020 (Day 1)

I started the year working, actually the new 20’s decade. Some might contradict me and say it’s not the begining of a decade (hi dad!) but I’ll skip that part. The thing is, work came sooner than expected. On the 4th of January I played the first gig of the year. I didn’t even had the time to write my new years resolutions 馃槄. Just kidding, I love making lists of any kind. One of my strongest desires this year…

Broccoli with tahini and tangerine sauce: VEGAN|PLANT路BASED|GLUTEN路FREE|SOY路FREE|

Broccoli with tahini and tangerine sauce: VEGAN|PLANT路BASED|GLUTEN路FREE|SOY路FREE|

You know, when people eat meat they usually go to meat when they feel lazy to cook. Anything easier than throwing a steak on a pan and cook it for a couple of minutes? When people go vegan, they go for the easiest substitutes like veggie patties or seitan steaks. They are usually highly processed foods, so that’s a no-no for me.   When people go plant-based and want to follow a healthy lifestyle, they go for tofu or tempeh,…

Koh Lanta (Coru帽a) celebrates its first birthday

Koh Lanta (Coru帽a) celebrates its first birthday

Koh Lanta turned one and I was there to see it. They invited everyone to an informal tasting to celebrate it. If you want a bit of background, here’s the first post I wrote about them. I had a lot of fun, tried old dishes that I already loved and some new flavours that didn’t disappoint me at all. The place was crowded in and outside and the staff rose up to the occasion by wearing traditional Vietnamese hats. I…

Artichoke Focaccia

Artichoke Focaccia

Hey! I made this Artichoke Focaccia the other day. I used fresh veggies and homemade dough, but you can easily make it with cupboard ingredients. Ingredients: Pizza dough (approximately 3 cups of flour for 1 cup of water, 1 tsp salt and 1 tbsp olive oil) 3 big artichokes, boiled (or artichoke hearts from a can) 4 roasted piquillo peppers (I used homemade preserved piquillos, but you can use any other red pepper from a can, or even raw) Salted…

Christmas Chicken 脿 l’orange in a tiny oven

Christmas Chicken 脿 l’orange in a tiny oven

I’ve decided there’s no Christmas unless there’s a turkey on the table. I mean, I’ve been doing that for a long time now. The thing is…I don’t have a proper oven (yet). I have a new kitchen and I still have to buy an oven, but meanwhile I’m still using my good old small oven. Why haven’t I bought a bigger oven yet? I haven’t found one that I really liked. If you have any suggestions, please let me know,…

Another Tapas Contest: Tapas Picadillo in Coru帽a I

Another Tapas Contest: Tapas Picadillo in Coru帽a I

I’ve already told you that I get very anxious when something big related to food happens near me. Tapas Picadillo contest is always a good example. I even get to the point where I hate the contest for existing and making me take such hard decissions. And always the same question in my head…which tapas shall I try this year? This time I decided to take it easy and make a “small” selection of the tapas that I needed to…

Tomato Steak

Tomato Steak

I’ve been in Madrid for a week before a gig and I came back to Galicia with a bunch of photos, some ideas, and my belly full. One of those ideas was this Tomato Steak. I’ve visited a nice place with good wine and food called Celso y Manolo in Chueca. Although I couldn’t eat there, I tried some of their wines. I inspected the menu, anyway, and found this interesting concept called “Tomato steak”. The plump, oversized, ripe tomatoes…
