It's hard to find something quicker, simpler and more delicious to prepare in the kitchen than homemade cookies (especially if we have a pair of "extra" hands ready to help). There are countless cookie recipes, but usually each of us has one that stands out above the rest, our favorite cookie recipe, the one that never fails. In our case, and after a long and undisputed reign of the typical chocolate chip cookies, these brownie-style chocolate cookies are our latest weakness.

The Vitalis pot is today one of the most popular pots for steaming. Its success lies in the pot's versatility of uses on one hand, and on the other that, being made of stainless steel, it is a pot that will last us a lifetime in the kitchen.

I'm sure more than once you've wanted to know how to make homemade cocoa and hazelnut spread (the well-known Nutella or Nocilla). It's one of those foods that all children love and, let's be honest, adults also enjoy eating by the spoonful!

When you start experimenting with juices, a huge window of possibilities opens up before you. From making simple juices from assorted fruits, to beginning to make smoothies and lassis with yogurt and milk, experimenting with the pleasure of using all kinds of plant milks that give you nutrients and a wide range of flavors, and playing with spices. The world of juices is endless!

Who doesn't like croquettes? Grandma's, your mother's, or the neighbor's. But what should a good croquette be like? Crispy on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside; there are many fillings but Jamón Serrano croquettes are a classic. This is one of those foolproof recipes that will work wonderfully for you.

These days we're juggling to vary our recipes with whatever we might have at home. That's why I'm bringing you a spoon dish that, without pretension or complication, ends up being a very tasty stew.

If you think lentils with vegetables are a half-hearted effort, you’re very wrong. Especially when those lentils are beluga or caviar, the amount of vegetables is considerable and the pot we cook them in is our Every casserole. Small but mighty. With all that, we whip up stewed beluga lentils with carrot and pumpkin, packed with flavor.
