With the San Juan festivities approaching, Loreto, author of Sabores de Colores, offers us a completely festive recipe that will fill the table with color, joy, good food... and very little prep work! Give this fondue a try, because it will very likely be different from any you've tried before, and it will be a sure hit with all your guests.

La autora de Sabores y Momentos, Patricia, nos sorprende hoy con una receta que ideal para el día a día pero presentada de la forma más original! Me hubiera gustado ver la cara de los niños al ver que en la mesa, a la hora de comer, había un molde de tarta en lugar de la fuente tradicional. Me los imagino diciendo "Pero mamá, ¡si este molde es para tartas!".

Even as a personal opinion, I must say I think most of us love to see healthy recipes that are very easy to make and quick to prepare. Today Laura, from the blog Because, brings us one that fits all of that perfectly: a frittata which, with the contrast of the artichokes' flavor and the salty touch of the ham, you'll love!

Cherry season has arrived! Blessed they are, because they’re one of the fruits I enjoy most. I love that they’re part of the snack platter — to refresh and quiet hunger while waiting for the meal to be ready — at teatime, warning the kids to watch out for the pit and seeing how they enjoy trying to get every bit of juiciness, and, of course, how I love making jams and cakes with them!

The grill is a utensil we use all year round, for meats, fish, and vegetables (at the very least!), but cooking on a griddle is as easy as it is healthy, and when the weather is nice we tend to use it even more. That's why we thought it would be interesting for Miriam, author of El Invitado de Invierno, to share her opinion on Le Creuset's smooth iron grill, which she has had for a long time and knows well.

Everyone is trying the wok, and the truth is most people see it as just another pan with high sides. But that shape is undoubtedly its charm - the hotter base to brown food quickly, the sides to keep it warm, and its height also allows you to steam, boil, and stew...

You'll agree with me that warm weather calls for using the wok more the wok, for those quick, healthy stir-fries, and that if you also add the aromas of the sea, you then get an ideal recipe for summer, which is already approaching! That's why Carmen, author of the blog Yerbabuena en la Cocina, invites us to try today this recipe that will surely suit you!

"To cook with a stainless steel pan it is very important to control the temperature". I recognize that was almost the only thing I could say about stainless steel pans, since I didn't have much else to tell from first-hand experience until quite recently.

In today's recipe Virginia, author of Sweet and Sour, presents a dish that anyone can shine with in the kitchen... And that everyone will enjoy to the fullest when eating it! I'm sure this soupy seafood rice will make your mouth water, so I can only encourage you to follow her recipe.

With pleasant weather we crave lighter, healthier meals, but we certainly don't want to give up flavor and the pleasure of good food.

Raquel, author of Los Tragaldabas, had a crush on the De Buyer French Collection frying pan (the classic iron one with a special handle). While she fell in love with that pretty pan, I’ve fallen for the recipe she brings us today: easy to prepare and ideal for warm weather — with these clams in sauce you’ll be sure to be a hit!

There are dishes that just by looking at them we know everyone will like. The one Luisa brings us today, author of Cocinando con mi Carmela, is one of them: a traditional meat empanada recipe. A recipe you'll prepare easily and quickly, and that will surely be a hit at home! She has prepared it in the Revol dish, with that distinctive line of the legendary French brand (you can see more products here).
