One of the many, many things I miss from Cyprus, is their hummus. It’s something incredible, let me tell you. And as much as I love Estonia, they still have a lot to learn when it comes to the art of Hummus. One summer, I took a dear friend of mine to my beautiful homeContinue reading “Hummus”

Classic Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies – 4 Ways
Coookiesssss! Everyone needs to have a staple chocolate chip cookie recipe. And you know what’s crazy, for years I tried to find one and they always came out too bready, or too flat, or too crispy, or burnt.

South Indian Curry
When I was little and still living in Cyprus we had a group of Indian friends who attended our church.

Saturday’s, Christmas mornings, birthday breakfasts in bed, those were the occasions that my Papa would get up early and make pancakes for us.

I believe my dadContinue reading “Papa’s Pancakes”

So, I had to learn to make them. Now, disclaimer, if you want to make the “real deal”,Continue reading “Bagels”
