This is one of my wife's favorite recipe with her cafe after lunch, it's extremely easy and so gourmand, plus it is really fun for the kids to do :-)  I think in the US it's called a thumbprint cookies. At my house, we are doing a slightly different version of it... Instead of using jam, we are using some Dulce, it's like a jam but it's more intense than the jam so the concentration of the flavor is more intense than a jam plus it has less sugar... 

So today, as many of you have been asking me... I'm going to show you how to simply make bread at home without a machine. Old style, kneaded barehand.  The possibilities are endless, as you can change the types of flours, the types of seeds, etc...  and the smell of fresh baked bread in a house is sooooo yummyyy!! 

Today we are showing an amazing recipe that is light and super tasty without butter... doesn't happen to often in pastry :-) And it's also Gluten Free! Pot de creme are a little dessert that you can bake in any type of jam jars or glasses if you want. You can use a wide variety of flavors for it. I love Vanilla so we did vanilla of course also because i have access to fresh ones... lucky me :-) 

Here is another little beauty that we've done over the past couple of days. We had bananas and as the sun was shining, we though of cocktails, especially piña coladas so here comes the sweet version of it with chocolate. 

Today's recipe is all about citrus... even though you can do this awesome recipe with literally any fruits. So far we've tried lemon, apple, pears, pineapple... The possibilities are endless! :-) We got some oranges from good friends of ours and so after some jam, what better then a cake to put them to good use :-) 

Chocolate cake super easy to make and very delicious! and it can be Gluten Free if you use buckwheat flour! (or any other kind of GF flour, but buckwheat and chocolate is awesome!) Here’s a fantastic recipe to do: Simple, extremely tasty, you can beat it and the best thing to do is to pick the spatula and the bowl at the end 😁  

1st recipe today was “crème caramel “ A combination of caramel with a mixture of egg and vanilla 😊 Fantastic dessert to make from scratch with eggs, milk and sugar 😊

As we enter our second week of shelter in place in the bay area, I've thought of one of the most important thing I could teach our kids... They have their schedule for homeschooling, it's all great. But they are missing something extremely important in their life: cooking.
