Salami - The White One
My first try on making salami. I played around with meat types and ended up with a way too high fat content as one can easily see by the color of the final product. The taste was amazing, though the consistency was too soft.

Apple Raisin Chutney
This chutney was planned to be a plain apple chutney, though due to miscalculating the required ingredients I was in need of more ingredients. I decided to go with raisins and to my surprise the outcome was amazing. I still dislike the texture of the raisins, but the taste of the chutney is just delicious.

Its apple season. Time to make some apple compote. The recipe is pretty standard, nothing too special about it (yet). I would consider it a good baseline for further experiments.

Peach Jam
Our second jam this season has a twist. We wanted to add some acidity to the extreme sweetness of the peaches. Rather than go for the default lemon acid we decided to use pineapple instead. Not enough to actually taste it, but enough to give the jam an amazing exotic acidity.

Wild Garlic Pesto
Wild garlic pesto makes a very easy and fast pasta dish. I played around with a recipe the last years, though never wrote it down. The current recipe is a good base, though not totally what I want it to bee. As wild garlic is pretty much seasonal Ill most likely will try another batch next year.

Cheap Selfmade Vanilla Sugar
Making selefmade vanilla sugar is so simple that I never thought about writing it down. However, I noticed that I referenced this type of vanilla sugar quite often in my recipes so I thought I add it so its clear why I would add 50g vanilla sugar to something like tiramisu. Its super easy and cheap and every cook should have one jar filled with cheap vanilla sugar.
