This type of classification helps to present recipes with another point of view and in an alternative manner. One thing is sure, there are many Greek recipes in this blog but there are also a lot of vegetable recipes, so I thought that a category for vegetarian and vegan (very trendy and for courageous people!) food might make sense. I also decided to include recipes coming from other cultures so I created an additional category for “Food for Around the World” :-) So enjoy :-)

Orange confit
Make this orange confit that is so simple and soo good! Eat it as is or use it into your pastries! When it’s so simple to make, why on earth buy orange confit?

Christmas biscuits with olive oil and spices (vegan melomakarona)
This recipe is made traditionally in Greece with honey, but in this version honey was replaced by coconut syrup and thus it’s 100% vegan! And it’s soooo good :-) Enjoy!

Earl Grey
This is a fine dessert that celebrates Earl Grey tea and it does it with great success. Prunes go very well with the rest of the ingredients, and the two biscuits (frangipane and lady fingers) go together wonderfully with the sabayon cream flavored with this fine tea!

Pommes Dauphines
Pommes dauphines are French potatoes made with potato puree and choux dough! They are briefly fried and get a quick time in the oven. They are really splendid! Crispy on the outside and moist in the inside! So particular and so French!

Pumpkin or Squash Pie with Pecans
Pumpkin pie and squash tart along with pecan pie are American classics and in this version they are so delicate and tasteful that you will be surprised! It’s a matter of having a well-balanced mix of spices (cinnamon and nutmeg)! Just try and you will see!

Maryland Fried Chicken
An American fried chicken not as usual! Why? Because it’s cooked slowly into clarified butter and this makes all the difference! It comes from an old recipe in an old book that it’s not forgotten after all! Try it, you worth it!
