Some recipes are made to nurture the spirit and not the body. We all have our personal and infallible recipe for humor. Crescent, on his blog , invites us to share our little secret ingredients.
Things that make me feel good:
1. A place. Mountains. I can not stand the cold. I deal with insects with the same ardor that Don Quixote shows towards the windmills. I'm so clumsy stumble on excursions that even in flat terrain. Despite all this, the mountains of Gargano are the places of my childhood (yes, we also have the mountains) and the Alps are the place of my heart for the last three summers.
2. A fragrance . The smell of books. Buy a book, for me, is a task that requires patience. Leafed through it, weighed it, turned it in his hands to study it from every angle and inhaled the scent. The smell of a book, new or old, is sublime as that of a freshly baked pie.
3. A food or beverage. chocolate. I'd live on bread and chocolate. Not Nutella, but not throw it away for sure, but bread - simple, maybe even not-very soft and dark chocolate. One bite at a tablet and the loaf. Paradise.
4. A sound. voices over the telephone. My mother is convinced to have a voice quite different from the one that transmits the phone. It also says when he hears his voice in a recorded video. During our chats on the phone, however, and his voice, "distorted" I can imagine the expression on his face, the moments in which frowns or smiles and I smile with her. My boyfriend on the phone always lowers his voice, almost whispering, even when he is alone in the house, and a moment of daily life becomes an intimate moment of sharing. And 'one of the things I love about him.
5. A movie. Any one of Marilyn Monroe. "I always say that the kiss is something different, but the crowns of diamonds are eternal." A genius who wrote those dialogues.
is not a typical dish of my family culinary tradition, but after tasting the softness of a warm loose ball with his hands like a gluttonous little girl ... I want to share this precious and guarded recipe courtesy of "Uncle Manlio", which I thank you very much!
E 'dutiful a brief introduction ... also called the Danube Danube is a typical dish of Neapolitan cuisine, although it is known historically as "the Brioche Tang". In Naples, as well as in South Italy, are part of the traditional pies, the outhouses, the tease, purchased in bakeries or eaten while walking the streets and in front of a kiosk.
The Danube has risen a quiche, made by balls stuffed with cheese and salami. According to tradition, the filling was obtained with what 'was left unused: Provola, buffalo cheese, ham, sausage, salami piqued ... Today there are many recipes and sometimes the filling is made with products not wholly typical of the Neapolitan culture.
Let's start the dough ... a loaf made with 50g of flour and 1 cube of yeast dissolved in 50 grams of milk at room temperature. Let dough rise for about 1 hour mother. After the interval rising, knead the ingredients: 450 grams of flour, 3 eggs, 160 g butter at room temperature and cut into small pieces, 20 grams of sugar, 100 grams of Parmesan cheese, 1 boiled and mashed potatoes, a pinch of salt.
worked extensively all the ingredients. Add the stick of dough and continue kneading. When you get a homogeneous mixture, roll out the dough while maintaining a rather high thickness of about 1 cm. size with the help of a pasta or a glass, cut up many disks to use up all your dough. Place the filling inside each disk obtained by cutting the Provola diced cooked ham and reduced to small pieces.
Close each diskette creating small balls and arrange in a baking tray lined with baking paper well spaced about 1cm. each other. Let the cake rise a little 'and then bake for about 30 minutes at 160 degrees.
When I was small, my Christmas season officially began with the vision of two cartoon characters: Mickey's Christmas Carol and Pluto's Christmas Tree . My brother slipped the video cassette (still exist?) into the recorder and began the magic of Christmas.
The second board, as well as the mischief Chip Chop and I liked the atmosphere of celebration and warmth conveyed the house decked out in Mickey: everything was a theme and everything had its place, the garlands, the star on the tip of the tree candy sticks white and red adorn the branches.
These famous candy sticks - the Candy Canes - have always attracted my attention, I have always wondered what fun they had and how could they not fall from the branches remaining well hang on. I tried many times in Italy these mythological sweet but not yet able to find or to taste. Legend has it that they know of peppermint and are very fragrant and Duretti to munch on. For now I'll settle for this sweet imitation, the brainchild of Lady of biscuits (yes, again Martha Stewart) who presented it in its special issue on the sweet party in 2009.

Biscottologia :
-bi fat, baked
-lo ingredients, mixing, and the shape of the cooking time the biscuits are: -soft and consistent
-friable and crumble easily
The crispy-crunchy depends on
low percentage of liquid in the mixture
high in sugar and fat
prolonged cooking
thin or small form
The softness
depends on
high percentage of liquid in the mixture
low in sugars and fats
presence of honey, molasses, maple syrup and the like
quick cooking thick
The consistency depends
by
high percentage of sugars and liquids low in fat but high proportion of eggs
type of flour or strong gluten development during mixing
L ' increase in volume depends on
high sugar content, which helps it to rise (in this case, the sugar helps it to rise while the sugar does not affect much)
highest percentage of sodium bicarbonate, baking powder or food
ammonia incorporation of air during mixing (for example, whip the egg whites with cream or mixing with fats and sugars)
low cooking temperature
the use of weak flour, on the contrary the strong flour and slow down the formation of the gluten rising
mixing methods.
One step
:
Place all ingredients in a bowl (or food processor) and mix gently until the mixture is well blended
Creamy :
Place the sugar, fat, salt and spices in a bowl and mix the ingredients until creamy. Light biscuit mix until the cream becomes soft and fluffy, to incorporate as much air as the final dough. Denser biscuit mix well but do not make too frothy cream. Add eggs and liquids
Add the flour and yeast. Do not mix with too much force to prevent the formation of gluten.
Spongy :
Mix sugar and eggs until frothy (as is done eg. With the sponge)
Gradually add the remaining ingredients.
Form cookies.
-
Using pastry bag
-
Using a spoon, by placing the mixture on the pan. This simple gesture will give the cookies a more rustic and homely - Coils :
Form a cylinder with the mixture, let cool in the fridge
Spread to the desired size
Cut with cutters
-
Modelled :
Idem Idem
Shape the biscuits with your hands, for example. flattening or creating special shapes
- In the freezer:
Form a cylinder with the mixture, let harden in freezer
maintaining the cylindrical shape can be cut the dough into disks with a knife, In this way there are differences in the dough
-
double cooking method (a typical example. the corner): Form a cylinder with the mixture
Cook for the time indicated
Allow to cool completely and then cut the dough into several pieces
Bake the cookies for the time indicated for the second firing
- Method for liquid mixtures very
(typical of brownies):
Pour the mixture into a pan and cook for five minutes
Cut the dough into several pieces into the desired shape
Again the best way to learn is to practice an art, then stir, bake and nibble.

Accomplice to the rainy day the tune of "Umbrella"-version of Baseballs - did not want to get out of my mind. I hummed softly to university, while I was shopping, the slalom while I was among the puddles in the road. I admit, I was in a good mood because this autumn day he could give me an opportunity to try this recipe from Martha Stewart
(Hail to the sum of Lady biscuits). Not that I need little excuse to make cookies but you better keep up appearances.
For biscuits: 350g flour
O
3g baking powder
1g salt
90g butter at room temperature
150g sugar
30g icing sugar
1 vanilla bean or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
The grated rind of half lemon
1 egg
With a wooden spoon in a bowl mix the butter with both sugars, vanilla seeds (or a teaspoon of vanilla extract) and lemon zest. Add egg and continue stirring until the cream will be soft and dense. Gradually add the flour already mixed and sifted with the baking powder and salt.
Give the dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to harden for 45 min.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 3mm, cut out biscuits with shapes. For umbrellas I drew the outline of an umbrella on the baking paper, I supported sull'impasto and I cut the outline with a sharp knife. For the clouds I used the Mould of a flower and a biscuit cut in half to give the shape of cloud.
Heat oven to 190 degrees and let rest in the meantime already cut the biscuits for 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
Cook for 7-8 minutes until the edges of the biscuit will be lightly browned. Allow to cool before frosting or serving.
For the frosting Lemon
:
200g icing sugar
Juice and zest of one lemon
Put in a bowl the sugar, lemon zest and juice. Work the ingredients with a whisk.
Spread the frosting on the cookies and allow to dry for at least a couple of hours before storing.
The original recipe calls for a glaze made with "powder meringue (meringue powder) not having this ingredient I made a simple glaze of lemon, in my opinion, emphasizes so delicious the slight lemon flavor of these cookies
What magic will never have this soup? The name is mysterious and resonant. I wondered: is magic for the taste? To speed execution? Or for some mysterious virtue? The flavor of the leeks ... well, have to like it, I'm going crazy, I cook the leeks in a lot of variations and I like this version even light. In speed is fast because, apart from cleaning the leeks and cook, there are many steps you can take. Will be the virtues of the leek then to make it magical? The leek is low in calories, only 60 per 100g, is rich in vitamin A, has a good dose of B vitamins and vitamin C (check out the tab on the Porro wikipidia for other data) is slightly diuretic and cleansing .
Ingredients:
IKG leek
Peel and wash the leeks well. Trim the dark green end, leaving only the white part and a piece of light green. Keep the green parts for the stock.
Place leeks in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes. Drain but keep the liquid. Transfer the leeks in a bowl. Since leeks - as I said - lend themselves to a thousand and soup recipes, which seem increasingly attractive as grades decrease away from home, here is the variant that I cooked Saturday.
Peel the vegetables, cut into pieces and arrange them in a pot, except the cauliflower and parsley. Cover with water, bring to a boil and simmer, uncovered, for 40 minutes. Add the cauliflower and cook for another 15 minutes.
Pass the vegetables in a blender or mash with a mixer until creamy dip.
Sprinkle with parsley and chopped eggs. Season with a dash of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper .
And if anyone is wondering how Clean and prepare the leeks here is the video of the same Mireille Guiliano:)
. I honestly do not know who we should attribute the authorship of this sentence. I did some 'research and it appears out of nowhere to end up on geek t-shirts with the unmistakable face of Darth Vader of Star Wars. Perhaps the side of the Jedi "clear" of the force should stay away from the temptations and biscuits? Who knows. Certainly I do not see anything "evil" in these cookies. = P
250g flour 00
90g cocoa powder
5g baking powder
250g butter at room temperature
200g sugar 1 egg
Vanillin
2g salt
granulated sugar to decorate
In a bowl sift flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt.
In a different bowl fitted with electric mixer the butter and sugar until creamy soft, medium speed for about 2 min. Add egg and vanilla and continue stirring. Lower speed and gradually add the flour mixture.
Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator to harden for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 180 °
Shape into balls the size of a walnut, mash them with the palm of your hand until ½ cm thick. Garnish with granulated sugar and bake.
Bake for 12-13 min.
freshly baked cookies are soft and delicate, so be careful when they are taken from the pan to cool to harden slightly to reach the right consistency.
