This pineapple cake is one of the first I learned to make several years ago. It has ended up becoming a true classic in my kitchen. That's why I want to share it with all of you. It's not very common to see a pineapple cake... so I recommend you try making it and tell me what you thought.

We receive many inquiries about which kitchen knives to buy, since it can sometimes be hard to tell the difference between some models or which one suits our type of cooking best. There are many options and I think it's important to choose well: it's a tool we'll use almost daily for many years. Also, the difference between a good knife and an average knife is significant; it's worth having good knives and giving them proper care so you can work comfortably and safely.

Today Raquel, author of Los Tragaldabas, invites us to prepare a very easy recipe that will surely catch your eye: a pork tenderloin accompanied by a delicious sauce that you and your loved ones will enjoy. Give it a try — it's well worth it!

Beatriz, the author of the blog To Be Gourmet, makes our mouths water with a cake that you'll enjoy both hot and served cold. She followed one of the recipes found in a book known to all lovers of Italian cuisine, La Cuchara de Plata. Enjoy this delicious cake!

When Loreto, author of Sabores de Colores, presented to me the recipe you find here today, she told me "Claudia, go ahead and make it because it's super-delicious!". After seeing it, I didn't doubt her words, because the photos already make it clear that this is a recipe we should all try. I already have, and I confirm she is absolutely right!

Baking bread at home is one of the most rewarding and satisfying things I know. Not only is it a process that relaxes us, but it also allows us to enjoy artisan, freshly baked bread every day.

I have seen and used Pallarès knives all my life. They have been used in my grandparents' and my mother's kitchen. I still remember going into a village shop holding my mother's hand to buy them. I'm accustomed to them and fond of them, and that is why it was a pleasure and a thrill, I must admit, to add them to the shop.
