Whipped Rhubarb porridge and cold Strawberry soup
Hot summer days in Austria. I am more or less melting while working in the garden. Unfortunately, the heat does not melt off the accumulated winter fat đ Peonies are blooming so beautifully and kiwi is going crazy too. I got rhubarb from my friend again and I started to think what I could do…
Finnish Split Pea Soup in Crockpot
There is nothing more satisfying on a cold and snowy day than this soup.This is a true Nordic favorite.

In…

Asparagus soup with twist
There are so many Cream of Asparagus Soup recipes but I have always stayed with the good old one,but today I desired to try something new!

Sausage Goulash for rainy day
It has been quite cloudy and rainy day today. Gray and gloomy. Typical Innviertel weather.. Only fog was missing. Sometimes fog is so dense that you hardly see half a meter ahead of yourself..On days like this, soup is something that I grave. I am not very comfortable cooking Austrian dishes, but now and then…
