Vegan Callos: The same flavour, no cows involved.

Vegan Callos: The same flavour, no cows involved.

Hey there! I really was waiting until February to start writing agoin in the blog because I’ve been trying new ways of eating and I wanted to be sure how I felt about it before writing about it. Well, this post isn’t about that, so don’t worry. I’m here because you asked for this recipe, and I am proud you want it because it means a lot that you are willing to try new vegan and plant-based versions of traditional…

Tapas Picadillo: 2018 Edition.

Tapas Picadillo: 2018 Edition.

I’ve told you about this contest last year, and I kep talking about it and I will probably talk about it next year. I used to have a hundred options and got really anxious about it.       The good thing about being gluten-free and dairy-free (among other ingredient-free things) is that it narrows your choices. I’ve always thought that would be an inconvenient, but on the contrary, it makes it easier when I have to order in a…

Forum Gastronòmic 2017

Forum Gastronòmic 2017

Two years ago, I saw some adverts announcing Forum Gastronòmic in Coruña. I had’t been there the previous month because I had to work, so when I saw the dates, my heart broke. I couldn’t go. So I waited for two long years hoping they bring it back to my city (with some thoughts of going to Girona or Barcelona where it is celebrated as well, but always work got in the middle). Finally it was February 2017 and I…

Pancake day: Filloas

Pancake day: Filloas

It’s pancake day, and how am I celebraring it? Yes, you guessed! By cooking and eating pancakes! This recipe is the Galician version of crêpes. They are called differently depending on the region, but in my family (and in most places) they are called filloas. It’s tradition to make them on Shrove Tuesday with the leftover broth from making Galician Stew. They can be done with broth, milk or half broth and half milk. In my family when we were…
