This is my second try on a sweet sour sauce. It is way more fruity and works well with tofu as well as meat.

Exlairs (or ‘Brandteigkrapferl’ in German) are on my todo list for quite a while. Today I got around to finally give them a try. The filling is not what I would go with the next time, but it is a solid start.

Easy, fast, very sweet and delicious cookies. Nothing more to say.

Faschingskrapfen are a very well known dessert in austria. You can get them all year long, but most ‘Krapfn’ are usually eaten during carnival time. The recipe is amazing, though quite a lot of work. After finishing tweaking this recipe Ill try to get a faster and easier version down for sure.

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.

This recipe is still work in progress. It already tastes great, but a bit more tweaking will make it really stand out.

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.

Red currant meringue cake is one of the cakes I remember dearly from my childhood. My mother usually baked it on a flat baking tray though I adapted the recipe to a small spring form to fit our needs.

Following our tradition to try one type of jam per summer we decided to go for apricot jam. Its one of my all-time favorites. Thanks Eva for the jars and apricots ;)

This recipe started out as a joke, though ended up being something really special. Its delicious, but very, very filling. Its intended to be a dessert, though two of them usually totally fill me up, and I would consider them enough as a whole main dish.

After over a year I finally ran out of fermented mustard. Time for a new batch and several new variations. This time I opted for sweet mustard.

I always assumed sweet sour sauce requires some exotic ingredients and is hard to make. I was wrong. Its one of the simplest sauces you can make. For my first try I made sweet sour sauce with crispy tofu. I’m sure Ill try this with a lot of other things in the future.

This is my first try on a chocolate cake. I decided to make the process as easy and fast as possible. Naturally this leaves space for improvements here and there. Though I would argue that, while the process is very simplistic, the result is still pretty fancy. And of course delicious.

Hotteok is an amazing korean street food best described as baked cinnamon buns with nuts. The filling process is kind of tedious but you get the hang of it after the first few. And it so worth the hassle!

Mousse au chocolate is a very well known french dessert. I only made whip cream based versions of this years back, though got introduced to an egg based variant (thanks Miri).

This is one of the unhealthiest but best cakes Ive made in a long time. The combination of lemon sugar and poppy is insanely good. Also its gluten free, in case you are in need of a gluten free dessert.

While this was supposed to be the base recipe for more variations to come I decided to add a hint of ginger and a bit of chili to spice it up. The result is sweet, soft, chocolaty and simply delicious.

Another very simple recipe that uses the caramelized condensed milk. The base recipe is solid though it would benefit from some additional flavor kicks to be outstanding.
