I come with something very special, the 3 original Nordic Ware pancake recipes from the 50s! Yes, today is a full-fledged tribute to one of our favorite brands: Nordic Ware. And since tributes are always beautiful celebrations, I bring you three pancake recipes that will delight everyone at home.

As you probably already know, risotto is a traditional Italian dish that stands out for its creaminess and delicious flavor. This preparation is extremely versatile, being able to be made with a wide variety of ingredients, which makes it an ideal option to adapt it to our taste. Among the most emblematic risottos, the one with mushrooms, the one with cheeses, or this black squid risotto with which you are going to succeed stand out.

I love zucchini! And the recipe that I bring you today is perfect to enjoy it. These crispy zucchini strips are perfect to accompany meat, chicken, fried eggs or fish for lunch or dinner. And they are also a wonderful snack to snack between meals, at any time of the day!

If a few days ago I proposed a salmon sashimi, today's recipe revolves around another typical preparation of Japanese cuisine, of which I am a true lover. This beef tataki with sautéed vegetables is a perfect dish to enjoy meat and vegetables in a different way, and I'm sure you'll love it.

I confess that I am in love with focaccia, whatever the way it is seasoned. Seasoned only with extra virgin olive oil, a little salt and rosemary, I find it delicious both to accompany some cheeses or the salad of the meal, and to eat it as it is. If you like it as much as I do, I invite you to prepare this recipe for Mediterranean focaccia, which with a touch of ham is delicious.

Today I come with something different, a selection of toast recipes that are ideal as an improvised dinner or as a quick appetizer and are always a hit with attendees. There is nothing complicated about preparing a variety of toasts and the result is, in addition to being very attractive, very delicious.

Would you like to try one of my favorite tartlets? These Goat Cheese Tartlets with Balsamic Onion are perfect for those moments when you want to enjoy something tasty and uncomplicated. If you use refrigerated puff pastry, everything becomes much simpler and you just have to be careful when caramelizing the onion, add generous portions of goat cheese and let the oven do its magic until they are golden and crispy.

Today I bring a brioche with wild garlic pesto that I'm sure you'll love. It is a recipe that is easy to make, that is very colorful and that is ideal both to accompany any dish, to present with a cheese and cold meats platter, along with a caprese salad or to be savored just as it is.

July 30th arrives, World Cheesecake Day, and here is our proposal for this year: a traditional and creamy cheesecake, filled with cocoa cream and hazelnuts. Without a doubt it is a winning combination! But also, this recipe brings a surprise! What do you think about decorating it with some homemade chocolate truffles that are the easiest to make?

Transform a tortilla into the edible bowl of your recipes. It will become common at home once you try it! I love it, whether it is to serve a salad in an original way, some eggs on a plate or sweet recipes, it is very easy and ideal!

Today I suggest you create your own tortilla bowls in the oven and enjoy this delicious American-style salad with an avocado and cilantro dressing.

There are fabulous combinations, resulting in a delicious dish full of flavors. One of them is cheese with tomato and pesto, which can be served as an appetizer accompanied by a few slices of toasted bread or as a perfect starter. This burrata with colorful cherry tomato salad and homemade pesto is an ideal dish.

Today I invite you to enjoy some delicious juicy and tender barbecue smoked pork ribs. The secret of that juiciness is in an ingredient that, as soon as you try it, you will not want to live without it on barbecue days: apple juice.
