Flan napolitano

Neapolitan flan

The origin of flan goes back to the Romans, who prepared it both in sweet and savory versions. The sweet version was much sweeter than the one we know, as it was sweetened with honey. At first pepper was added—yes, pepper as you hear it—until pepper was replaced by the caramel used today.

Pudin inglés de manzana y vainilla al vapor

steamed apple and vanilla pudding

Despite the poor reputation of British cuisine, it is undeniable that the pastry is incredibly delicious and varied. Years ago, during my time as an English student, I discovered it and fell head over heels for it ipso facto, but it wasn’t until I adopted a British family as a policy that my eyes were opened to homemade sweets. They’re a whole other world.

Mi opinión sobre la picadora de carne manual

My review of the manual meat grinder

Making meatballs and burgers ourselves is an easy task. By preparing them at home we achieve a flavor truly superior to that of those usually available to buy, thanks to the spices and seasonings we add to our taste.
