Today I propose an authentic recipe for spaghetti carbonara. Spaghetti or tagliatelle carbonara we’re used to eat consist of lots of bacon, cream and grated cheese… it is very far away of the original spaghetti Carbonara recipe which consists only of crispy pancetta, whipped eggs and pecorino romano (sheep cheese). You can make the recipe either with spaghetti or tagliatelle. Attention: you must serve it very quickly because of the presence of egg yolks. So don’t try to

A recipe for apple pie to end up this week in a pretty way: a thin apple tart flavored with quince jelly. These lovely apple pies are made in a jiffy.

This duck parmentier recipe could be great on a sunday, when you don’t want to spend too much time in your kitchen and miss conversation with your friends. The parmentier of duck confit is certainly not from the ”sophisticated recipes family”.

This soup was a great surprise for me. Keep the idea because it can have its place on the menu for your next holiday meals… You can choose to offer it as a “true” entry or served warm in small glasses for a dinner aperitif, just like a hot salmon verrine. And that’s a smart way to make you guests eat an “improved” vegetable soup” as an aperitif! Ingredients you will need for the salmon velvet soup 1 lb

Here is an original and pretty cool hors d’oeuvre idea… amazingly good… and amazingly simple! This entry can be served as a “traditional” dish but for my taste it is more designed to enhance an evening buffet dinner for 6 / 8 individual portions depending on the size of the breast… Removing the fat makes it healthier. I bet you’ll love the marriage of duck breast and fruit. Ingredients: diced duck breast with raspberry sauce Specific ingredients: You

That’s it, the countdown has begun! The little ones will begin to dream of Santa Claus (why only children should believe in Santa Claus? I’m believing in again too!). It’s almost the start of advent calendars: each year I buy one for my daughters. This is funny and give them a sense of time passing and days remaining before Christmas! The consumer frenzy has also begun. I start watching Christmas decoration and rummage through my boxes to see what I have from past years. I change the color theme each year, and renew a part

Ingredients you will need for the Potato Salad With Pancetta Specific ingredients: You can order the specific ingredients of

Tartlets with Walnuts and Honey : With the arrival of autumn, nut and almond trees offer their delicious fruits. I appreciate snacking these dry fruit but I prefer them cooked in pastry where they develop more flavor. Did you know that the mere fact of roasting nuts in a pan without fat accentuates their flavors? For this pie, I chose pecan nuts, macadamia nuts and almonds. Finding that the dough and cream-and egg custard burden the dessert, the traditional recipe has been modified.
