]]> When it comes to marshmallows, you either like them or you don’t, there’s no in-between. But if you’re among the fans of this water-sugar-gelatin mix and it’s the soft-spongy texture, this article’s just for you.

Other than eating marshmallows in their original form, dipping them in your hot chocolate, or roasting them over the fire, you can also use them in delicious desserts. So, here are three marshmallow-based dessert recipes that are bound to make you lick your fingers.

Marshmallow Stuffed Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Before you even ask: yes, this recipe is as enticing as its name suggests. This recipe by food blogger Tina G, who goes by “Simply Tina G” on Instagram, is probably all you need right now. It’s the perfect combo of chocolate and marshmallow, and it’s also gluten-free, based on almond flour, coconut flour, and tapioca flour.

Chocolate Swiss Roll Cake with Toasted Marshmallow Frosting

This is a recipe by the amazing “A Classic Twist Blog”, who is not only a talented cook but is also a mother of two and the proud owner of a science PhD. With such impressive qualifications, you just know that her recipe is going to be amazing. This one is a simple chocolate sponge cake, but the special treat here is the toasted marshmallow filling.

Chocolate Covered Marshmallow

This sweet treat is perfect for when you just feel like an upgraded between-meals snack. It’s simple and quick to make, with only three or four ingredients overall! According to lovely Alex, this one is perfect for inexperienced cooks or bakers who don’t have a lot of confidence in the kitchen. All you need to do is how to follow a recipe and melt chocolate. It’s also great to make with your kids, and you can decorate it however you like.

]]> There is no bad time for a refreshing salad: salads can fit into your diet either as a side dish or as the entire meal–depending on what suits you best. Some people like to stick to the basic tomato-cucumber-lettuce salad with a squeezed lemon and a grain of salt, and that’s fine. But there are SO many interesting and exotic ways to make salad, it’s a shame not to try and mix things up every now and then.

Food blogger Kate from the Cookie and Kate website has a ton of cool salad recipes you can try. Here are three of them!

Chickpea Salad

Kate’s popular chickpea salad recipe is a solid choice if you feel like having salad as a main course. It can also go well as a side dish, but the chickpeas combined with the vegetables create a sense of a full, satisfying meal. Other than chickpeas, it includes celery, pepper, red onion, and parsley, seasoned with lemon and garlic.

Roasted Beet Salad with Goat Cheese and Pistachios

Just looking at the name of this salad is sure to make you drool, so just imagine actually eating it! The sweet-and-savory combination of roasted beet and goat cheese along with pistachios and some fresh greens is a true vegetarian winner.

Green Salad with Apples, Cranberries and Pepitas

Yet another one in the sweet-and-salty category is Kate’s refreshing green salad with Granny Smith apples, cranberries, and pepitas mixed with goat cheese. The salty and creamy goat cheese compliments the sweet-sour green apple slice, and together with the other ingredients, it’s just pure perfection.

]]> Food blogger Mandy Lee (known online as Lady and Pups) will steal your heart, thanks to her candid, down to earth approach to food making. Her beautifully curated Instagram page also helps.

Taiwan-born, Vancouver-raised, and slow-aged in New York, Lee decided to open her food blog after moving to Beijing. Now based in Hong Kong with her husband and a growing number of dog-children (hence the nickname Lady and Pups), her love of traveling and food is eminent in every recipe.

A recent recipe by Lee that caught our attention is her spaghetti in tomato sauce. Call us basic, but there’s nothing better and more comforting than a hot bowl of spaghetti.

“Spaghetti with tomato sauce is the oldest thing on the menu, yet, it can still be exciting with a twist,” writes Lee on her blog. “Whatever recipe of tomato sauce that you dug up from your ancestor’s grave should work fine, but I make mine with simply olive oil, garlic, fresh thyme, but most importantly, seasoned with fish sauce with a good pinch of sugar.”

According to Lee, the trick is to reduce the sauce down by 1/2, “because thick tomato sauces agree with me.” Another tip? “⁣Let your spaghetti that is still slightly under-cooked finish cooking inside the tomato sauce, allow proper introduction and chemistry between the two before pushing them onto the stage.”

So please head to my stories to watch the cooking demo which I hope will inspire more of you to try making this dish at home.

]]> Are you a fan of interviews with celebrities? Are you a fan of spicy chicken wings? Well, if your answer to both of these questions is yes, we have the perfect YouTube series for you to check out.

Hot Ones, which is hosted on the food-oriented “First We Feast” YouTube channel is a show that features interviews with all kinds of celebrities, from the music, sports, acting, and entertainment worlds, that have a twist. While being interviewed by host Sean Evans, these stars must work their way through a gauntlet of hot wings.

The first flavors are usually pretty mild, but throughout the 10 wings that each guest must attempt to eat, the hot sauces and flavors get wilder and wilder. By the end of the show, guests must prove their mettle with sauces that tip the scales at over 2,000,000 Scoville heat units!

Guests, ranging from actors like Idris Elba to singers like Post Malone, have their own strategies for keeping their cool while in the midst of the heat. Some choose to down glasses of water, others opt for milk, and some even choose beer!

This unique show is definitely a must-watch if you’re interested in the world of hot wings. The interesting celebrity guests make the episodes entertaining and informative, and you’ve never seen a question-and-answer format like this before!

]]> With the advent of television series and media productions such as “Downton Abbey” and a renewed cultural interest in 19th century England, it’s not surprising that more and more people are looking to learn about this place and time in history.

Have you ever wondered what those people ate? Well, if so, you’re in luck. The English Heritage YouTube channel’s The Victorian Way series is here to show you how to cook like you’re in 19th century England.

English Heritage is a British historical association that works to preserve historic buildings and sites in the UK as well as bring the history of the country back to life. One of their newest additions in order to do this has been The Victorian Way.

Victorian-era food might not have always been the most exciting or delicious cuisine in world history, but it’s fascinating to take a look at some of the recipes that people back in those days would have eaten. From cucumber ice cream to pigeon pie, delicacies from 19th century England certainly aren’t anything like our favorite foods today.

So, if you’re looking to learn more about this historical period of gastronomy, be sure to check out The Victorian Way!

Kitchen Speaking about traditional houses. On Tuesdays, we traditionally study houses and discuss issues of home and interior. Today we will discuss an unexpected area – the kitchen. If you want to look at traditional kitchen in a good house, pay attention to the magnificent @englishheritage edition and, in particular, to the short films ‘The Victorian Way’. The fact is that the Audley End estate that previously belonged to Braybrooks is now a museum with beautifully interiors, carefully preserved gardens, stable and service wing. Our newspaper will tell about this manor in detail in the following articles, this theme is extensive and interesting, but now let’s focus on the service part. Historians from ‘English heritage’ have carefully studied the materials, notes and diaries of the servants of the estate and its owners. On their basis, they created a magnificent reconstruction – the days of the gardener and the cook, with the most practical advice of the 1880s. Old oven, crystal, copper bowls and wooden shovels, corset dress … In the vast expanses of the Youtube archive, one can hardly find anything more peaceful and traditional than these Victorian recipes prepared according to Mrs. Crocombe cookbook. The most beautiful thing is that these films have the most practical application. And not only in terms of recipes. This is one of the few illustrative illustrations of the traditional attitude to work in the right place. https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLx2QMoA1Th9deXXbo7htq21CUPqEPPGuc #traditionalistnewspaper #traditionalSKhouses #traditionalhouses #thevictorianway #englishheritage #mrsCrocombe #1880x #victoriankitchen #traditions #traditional #traditionalist #audleyend

Andrew Rea, a self-taught chef from Mendon, New York, began in 2016 with this YouTube channel. His goal was to recreate some of the dishes and favorites from different TV shows and to show people how to make these dishes.

Although you might not realize it, most television shows and movies showcase some type of food (either at home or in a restaurant) as part of its plot. While some of these dishes are quite memorable, such as “Spongebob Squarepants” and its Krabby Patty, others are often forgotten about.

However, Rea does his best to combine both the unforgettable and the minor dishes shown in different entertainment venues as part of his series of YouTube videos. For example, on one episode which is centered on TV drama “The Wire,” Rea shows viewers how to make a number of Baltimore classics.

Cooking shows can be repetitive and boring, but “Binging with Babish” truly puts a new spin on an old classic. So, head to his Instagram account or YouTube channel and find something that interests you!

Raspberry chia anyone? This little recipe and photo was the start of all our smoothie adventures and set the tone for my photography set-ups in years to come. Simple and colorful against a dark backdrop. Here is the recipe if you haven’t tried it yet: – 1 cup / 125 g frozen thawed (or fresh) raspberries – 1 cup / 250 ml plant milk – 3 tbsp chia seeds – 3 tbsp desiccated coconut – A little maple syrup to sweeten (optional) – A squeeze of lemon, if preferred … Mash the raspberries with a fork. Add milk, chia seeds and coconut (+ maple syrup and lemon if using) and stir around until combined. Let sit for 20 minutes. Serve in a jar or bowl topped wit nut butter, berries, hemp seeds and mint.

Taiwan-born, Vancouver-raised, and slow-aged in New York, Lee decided to open her food blog after moving to Beijing. Now based in Hong Kong with her husband and a growing number of dog-children (hence the nickname Lady and Pups), her love of traveling and food is eminent in every recipe.

A recent recipe by Lee that caught our attention is her spaghetti in tomato sauce. Call us basic, but there’s nothing better and more comforting than a hot bowl of spaghetti.

“Spaghetti with tomato sauce is the oldest thing on the menu, yet, it can still be exciting with a twist,” writes Lee on her blog. “Whatever recipe of tomato sauce that you dug up from your ancestor’s grave should work fine, but I make mine with simply olive oil, garlic, fresh thyme, but most importantly, seasoned with fish sauce with a good pinch of sugar.”

According to Lee, the trick is to reduce the sauce down by 1/2, “because thick tomato sauces agree with me.” Another tip? “⁣Let your spaghetti that is still slightly under-cooked finish cooking inside the tomato sauce, allow proper introduction and chemistry between the two before pushing them onto the stage.”

Hey there, today I’ve uploaded the first cooking demo for recipes that I want to highlight in my book, and the first pick of the bunch is a recipe called French Quenelles Gone Mad on page 241! It’s an extremely addictive hybrid between French and Sichuan cooking and one of my favorite recipes in the book. So please head to my stories to watch the cooking demo which I hope will inspire more of you to try making this dish at home. The demo will be saved in highlights. • • • • • #f52grams #feedfeed #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #eeeeeats #beautifulcuisines #thekitchn #foodandwine #forkyeah #yahoofood #onthetable #buzzfeedfood #vscofood #foodstyling #foodphotography #lifeandthyme #eater #heresmyfood #food52 #gloobyfood #foodgawker #eattheworld #eatfamous #tastingtable #dailyfoodfeed #spoonfeed #foodbeast #hautecuisines #foodblogfeed #onmytable

]]> Are you a fan of interviews with celebrities? Are you a fan of spicy chicken wings? Well, if your answer to both of these questions is yes, we have the perfect YouTube series for you to check out.

Hot Ones, which is hosted on the food-oriented “First We Feast” YouTube channel is a show that features interviews with all kinds of celebrities, from the music, sports, acting, and entertainment worlds, that have a twist. While being interviewed by host Sean Evans, these stars must work their way through a gauntlet of hot wings.

The first flavors are usually pretty mild, but throughout the 10 wings that each guest must attempt to eat, the hot sauces and flavors get wilder and wilder. By the end of the show, guests must prove their mettle with sauces that tip the scales at over 2,000,000 Scoville heat units!

Guests, ranging from actors like Idris Elba to singers like Post Malone, have their own strategies for keeping their cool while in the midst of the heat. Some choose to down glasses of water, others opt for milk, and some even choose beer!

This unique show is definitely a must-watch if you’re interested in the world of hot wings. The interesting celebrity guests make the episodes entertaining and informative, and you’ve never seen a question-and-answer format like this before!

After years of research, development, writing, and photographing, the #heirloomcookbook is finally in my hands! So many people to thank including @minh_ngoc and her incredible photographic talent as well as @roostbooks and their team for editing and organizing the recipes and images into this gorgeous volume. I’ve shared more in the story highlights if you care to take a peek! Pre-orders are available wherever books are sold (released in the US Sept 24). A book tour is in the works in cooperation with small, indie book and kitchen stores that is being updated through the Events tab on my website @ritualfinefoods. Can’t wait to share my enthusiasm for heritage ingredients and their value in modern breeding efforts, heirloom recipes reimagined in a modern context, and techniques older than any of our grandmothers translated through a personal narrative. I hope you will keep this book at hand to bake, ferment, and preserve the seasons as much as to read the stories of this quirky life I’ve been fortunate to explore through food!

]]> With the advent of television series and media productions such as “Downton Abbey” and a renewed cultural interest in 19th century England, it’s not surprising that more and more people are looking to learn about this place and time in history.

Have you ever wondered what those people ate? Well, if so, you’re in luck. The English Heritage YouTube channel’s The Victorian Way series is here to show you how to cook like you’re in 19th century England.

English Heritage is a British historical association that works to preserve historic buildings and sites in the UK as well as bring the history of the country back to life. One of their newest additions in order to do this has been The Victorian Way.

Victorian-era food might not have always been the most exciting or delicious cuisine in world history, but it’s fascinating to take a look at some of the recipes that people back in those days would have eaten. From cucumber ice cream to pigeon pie, delicacies from 19th century England certainly aren’t anything like our favorite foods today.

So, if you’re looking to learn more about this historical period of gastronomy, be sure to check out The Victorian Way!

Kitchen Speaking about traditional houses. On Tuesdays, we traditionally study houses and discuss issues of home and interior. Today we will discuss an unexpected area – the kitchen. If you want to look at traditional kitchen in a good house, pay attention to the magnificent @englishheritage edition and, in particular, to the short films ‘The Victorian Way’. The fact is that the Audley End estate that previously belonged to Braybrooks is now a museum with beautifully interiors, carefully preserved gardens, stable and service wing. Our newspaper will tell about this manor in detail in the following articles, this theme is extensive and interesting, but now let’s focus on the service part. Historians from ‘English heritage’ have carefully studied the materials, notes and diaries of the servants of the estate and its owners. On their basis, they created a magnificent reconstruction – the days of the gardener and the cook, with the most practical advice of the 1880s. Old oven, crystal, copper bowls and wooden shovels, corset dress … In the vast expanses of the Youtube archive, one can hardly find anything more peaceful and traditional than these Victorian recipes prepared according to Mrs. Crocombe cookbook. The most beautiful thing is that these films have the most practical application. And not only in terms of recipes. This is one of the few illustrative illustrations of the traditional attitude to work in the right place. https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLx2QMoA1Th9deXXbo7htq21CUPqEPPGuc #traditionalistnewspaper #traditionalSKhouses #traditionalhouses #thevictorianway #englishheritage #mrsCrocombe #1880x #victoriankitchen #traditions #traditional #traditionalist #audleyend

Andrew Rea, a self-taught chef from Mendon, New York, began in 2016 with this YouTube channel. His goal was to recreate some of the dishes and favorites from different TV shows and to show people how to make these dishes.

Although you might not realize it, most television shows and movies showcase some type of food (either at home or in a restaurant) as part of its plot. While some of these dishes are quite memorable, such as “Spongebob Squarepants” and its Krabby Patty, others are often forgotten about.

However, Rea does his best to combine both the unforgettable and the minor dishes shown in different entertainment venues as part of his series of YouTube videos. For example, on one episode which is centered on TV drama “The Wire,” Rea shows viewers how to make a number of Baltimore classics.

Cooking shows can be repetitive and boring, but “Binging with Babish” truly puts a new spin on an old classic. So, head to his Instagram account or YouTube channel and find something that interests you!

]]> If you’re looking to provide vegetarian food to your whole family, it isn’t always the easiest task. As we all know, children are sometimes picky eaters. Things get even more complicated when you take meat out of the picture.

Fortunately for us, David Frenkiel over at @gkstories provides us with a gold mine of vegetarian options for all ages on his brilliant Instagram page.

Raspberry chia anyone? This little recipe and photo was the start of all our smoothie adventures and set the tone for my photography set-ups in years to come. Simple and colorful against a dark backdrop. Here is the recipe if you haven’t tried it yet: – 1 cup / 125 g frozen thawed (or fresh) raspberries – 1 cup / 250 ml plant milk – 3 tbsp chia seeds – 3 tbsp desiccated coconut – A little maple syrup to sweeten (optional) – A squeeze of lemon, if preferred … Mash the raspberries with a fork. Add milk, chia seeds and coconut (+ maple syrup and lemon if using) and stir around until combined. Let sit for 20 minutes. Serve in a jar or bowl topped wit nut butter, berries, hemp seeds and mint.

The author of Little Green Kitchen, a cookbook full of vegetarian, kid-friendly recipes, also provides his followers with tons of delicious meat-free meal ideas.

As the father of two young girls, Frenkiel knows well the challenges of making food without using meat that both parents and kids love. A quick look at his page proves, however, that what is difficult is not impossible. Who wouldn’t love this vegetarian potato and lentil salad sandwich, for example?

Vegetarian cooking is appropriate and healthy for people of all ages, and that includes kids too. Be sure to give Frenkiel a follow if you’re looking to find new vegetarian recipes for your children and family!
