The heat arrived days ago, and with it there’s one thing many of us enjoy (and I’m not talking about ice cream!). Lovers of meat on the grill and outdoor meals are surely already imagining it… It’s barbecue time!

When summer arrives, it’s much more tempting to make the most of the grill, and those simple, healthy dishes full of flavor. Miriam, author of El Invitado de Invierno, shows us today how to prepare a perfect vegetable grill, and to serve it with an olive tapenade sauce you’ll love.

For several months Miguel Ángel, author of Pimientos Verdes, has been enjoying a Weber gas barbecue. Since I knew he had gotten a lot of use out of it, I asked him if he would give us his opinion about it, or about the benefits of gas barbecues, and here is his opinion on them. Will you fall in love with these barbecues as much as he has?

To accompany the sandwich and enjoy a balanced meal, I have chosen a simple green salad of tomato, lettuce and spring onion that I dressed with a fantastic Modena balsamic vinegar that comes with a super practical spray and that you can find in the "Pantry" section of Claudia&Julia.

There was a frying pan that I had always seen at my parents' house. I remember we used it often but I never asked where it had come from. I saw it among other pans and thought it was one of my mother's eccentricities, another "gadget" — who knows where it had come from...

The combination of lamb tenderloin with couscous, spices, and yogurt results in an explosion of flavors and textures. This cut of lamb is taken just above the animal's leg and is usually cooked whole on the griddle, then sliced at the moment of serving.

Homemade, juicy and delicious, this is the recipe that Virginia, author of Sweet&Sour, brings us to make chicken burgers at home. Bet you can't resist the temptation?

I can't deny the excitement it gives me that more and more people are encouraged each day to try the products from our pantry section. It's not easy to explain why, but imagine there is some ingredient that is special to you and that you use in your cooking, and that one day you tell a friend about it. Another day, unexpectedly, they come to you and say, "By the way, that ingredient you told me about—I saw it in a shop and tried it, I loved it!" Can you imagine the joy that comment brings you?

I've been wanting to tell you about these pans for a long time, the BRA Infinity. In fact, I have so much planned about what I wanted to say that you could say today's post is one of those that practically writes itself...

Raquel, author of Los Tragaldabas, shows us how to make the most of the new Bra Infinity grill, a grill with a super-reinforced non-stick coating and a removable handle, which allows you to cook both on the stovetop and in the oven. In this case, she presents a classic: roast chicken with vegetables. Delicious, enticing, and with an excellent presentation—success is guaranteed!

I am filled with joy when December arrives. Christmas is approaching, a time of year I love: thinking about family meals, those meals that sometimes end up as dinners, and also seeing the excitement of children when they wake up and run to look beside the tree.
