PARSLEY PESTO

PARSLEY PESTO - Read more »
I would love to always have parsley pesto in my fridge. Unfortunately, it disappears very quickly because we all enjoy it so much. I use it for pasta, sandwiches and salads. It also goes well with many dinner dishes. Here I used it for cauliflower steaks. I would like to tell you about the place where I currently live. The area around Stavanger (Norway) is an agricultural area, the mild climate is conducive to cultivation, and we can buy freshly harvested products in nearby stores. Cooperation with local farmers is the basis of local trade. Every consumer will choose a local product because, firstly, they want to support "their own", and secondly, a product from a nearby village is certainly fresher than one that has travelled hundreds of kilometres.In my kitchen, herbs never leave my side. A few leaves of fresh herbs change the taste of a dish beyond recognition.  In Randaberg (10 km from Stavanger), on a beautiful hill overlooking the fjord, the family company Vikingurt ( v

LEEK BASKETS WITH CRISPY TOFU BITS

LEEK BASKETS WITH CRISPY TOFU BITS - Read more »
The dough forms well, does not fall apart, and is pleasant to work with. You can add any previously stewed vegetables to the baskets. Personally, I love the sweet taste of stewed leek and its velvety texture. Leek baskets can be served for dinner with salad or alone as an appetizer. But why not pack them for lunch? Add garlic sauce or plain, natural yogurt and have a tasty break at work or at school:) Good luck!
