Artichokes are one of my favorite vegetables and, if I have to choose which way of preparing them I like best, I definitely go with artichokes confited in olive oil.

The day you dare to make ice cream at home you'll wonder how it can be so easy. Today, one of my favorites: vanilla ice cream with caramelized nuts (yes, like the ice cream you probably know from Häagen-Dazs®; you can make it with Macadamia nuts if you prefer, although once caramelized you'll see that whether it's with regular nuts or Macadamia nuts the result is equally wonderful).

The dehydrator is useful for much more than making dried fruit chips for a snack or dehydrating onion, garlic, mushrooms and aromatic herbs to always have them on hand for your stews. With this recipe for dehydrated banana and cocoa crepes I hope to shed light on the possibilities offered by the air dehydrator, and of course I hope you enjoy breakfasts that are healthy, energizing, and delicious.
