In summer we like to enjoy light and healthy meals. It's a great time to put a lot of use to grill and, of course, also the wok . The recipe brought to us by Virginia, author of Sweet&Sour , you are going to love it since it is very easy to prepare, tasty and very original.

I love Julia Child's book. It is a book that tells the different culinary techniques, knowing that the reader may not know anything about cooking, to see them applied to the different recipes that it exposes, which are many. Thus, you enter the culinary world, and the truth is that your passion for cooking invades you.

What a pleasure to listen to Luísa -Cooking with my Carmela- talk about the recipe that she brings us today! "Yummy, yummy, and easy and quick to prepare." Because I think you'll agree with me that slow, traditional chup-chups are great, but we also like practical recipes for days when we don't have much time in the kitchen. So I'm sure today's recipe will interest you!

The Angel Bundt mold from Nordic Ware is a mold that is very popular because, being a round, smooth and tall mold, it gives a lot of play and allows for a multitude of recipes and combinations. It is one of the classics as far as bundts are concerned.

Raquel, author of Los Tragaldabas, talks to us today about that always chup chup, that way of cooking and flavors of yesteryear that we like to recover and savor so much. To do this, he brings us an uncomplicated recipe, which with just a few minutes of preparation and a little patience for it to finish cooking, can turn out to be an exquisite recipe. I encourage you to try!

Beatriz, author of the blog To Be Gourmet, brings us a recipe made with a utensil that I really wanted to show you. It is a small ice cream maker that we leave in the freezer to use when we want to make homemade popsicles. Its use is extremely simple: you only need to put the ingredients and in a few minutes the ice creams are ready to eat. Beatriz has prepared on this occasion some delicious ice creams with very natural ingredients. Do you dare to try?

Rosa Ardá, whom many of you know from her blog Velocidad Cuchara , has left me enchanted with the delicious, fluffy and irresistible cupcakes that she has prepared. Some of you will think that making cupcakes is simple. I would say that it is not complicated, but taking that point that makes them deliciously rich to the eye and to the palate has its what!

In view of the festival of San Juan, Loreto, author of Flavors of Colors, proposes a totally festive recipe that will fill the table with color, joy, good food... and little preparation work! Dare to try this fondue, because it is very likely different from the ones you have tried so far, and it will be a sure hit among all the guests.

The author of Flavors and Moments , Patricia, surprises us today with a recipe that is ideal for everyday life but presented in the most original way! I would have liked to see the children's faces when they saw that at the table, at lunchtime, there was a cake mold instead of the traditional source. I imagine them saying "But mom, this pan is for cakes!".

For those of us who like contrasts, we know that the acid flavor of red fruits together with the sweetness of chocolate is an excellent combination. If we put it on a puff pastry base, we will obtain a finger-licking cake. This recipe is the one presented by Carmen, from Yerbabuena in the kitchen, in the post that you will find on her blog.

We talked a few weeks ago about naked cake (if you missed it, be sure to check out the post in which I talked about the return to traditional cake). Then Rosa, author of Pemberley Cup&Cakes, showed us an example of it, a red fruit cake that we loved. In view of the great acceptance, today he brings us another naked cake, which only with its appearance I would bet that you will love it.

Virginia, author of Sweet&Sour, offers us on her blog a delicious recipe that you will undoubtedly like: the famous "bakewell cake", a cake that is characterized by having a shortcrust pastry base and a layer of jam -which she has made from strawberries , but it can be any other that tends to acid-, and has a coating of almonds on top.
