Do you like Nutella? And the oatmeal cookies? Both things excite me and if we put them together I get the perfect dessert. Also now that we are in summer, the best dessert is in the form of ice cream. Do you not agree with me?

So today I propose a good homemade Nutella ice cream served on a glass of homemade oatmeal and coconut cookies. How have you been?

Few things are more refreshing when the heat is on than a granita, and if it's homemade and lemon, I won't even tell you. To start and not stop!
Sorbets and granitas differ from ice creams, in general, in that they do not contain dairy (or eggs in the case of cream ice creams), so they are much less greasy and tend to produce a more icy sensation. But for that very reason they are perfect for the heat.

I love aromatics; I use them for almost everything in the kitchen. Some, like basil, I don't get all year round, others, in exchange, are always available in a pot... like rosemary.

In general, the aromatic ones are usually sold in trays that carry more quantity than we are going to need. Many times, as happens with parsley bouquets, the herbs end up spoiling inside the refrigerator.

I admit that I am a person with a sweet tooth, and that desserts are my weakness. I like them all, come on! But even so, I have my favorites and one of the ones I like the most are the fruit tarts, especially the Tatin tart, starting with the traditional apple tart and ending with the one that I bring you today, the delicious pineapple tart Tatin.

Coca de forner or baker is a flat and elongated bread very typical in Catalonia that was originally prepared with unenriched bread dough, painted with olive oil, garnished with pine nuts and sugar on top and sprinkled with anise when it came out. from the oven. Simple and very effective.

At home we usually make a lot of fresh pasta, we love it, but especially my son. I couldn't say what he likes more, spending time together in the kitchen preparing it or tasting it afterwards. He is a fan of pasta. I've been introducing him to Asian cuisine (which I adore!) for some time now and he's quite enjoying it so far. The easiest thing to make a first contact with are the noodles. It could be said that it is a direct family of pasta, so with this I was on the safe side. So today I show you how to make egg noodles.

Summer is to enjoy to the fullest, in all aspects, and if it is with ice cream, much better. During this time of year they want to consume fresh and light elaborations. Help us beat the heat, but also make us smile. Like for example this Ice Cream S'more that I assure you you will love.

Today I want to show you a way to enrich burgers with legumes that I find very interesting to incorporate this ingredient in a different way into our diet. The beneficial properties of legumes are well known and apart from in stews or salads there are other equally delicious ways to eat them.
