This recipe is an adapted version of Delia Smith‘s – I use it to use up the leftover egg whites after making custard or a strawberry roll. It takes about 10 minutes, plus one hour of baking and some cooling down time. It’s also fun to get kids involved by piping the meringues and making…
This is one of the simplest and easiest strawberry cake recipes I know, and also one of most delicious ones! The roulade is light and fluffy without any baking powder, but you will be left with four egg whites – a perfect excuse to whip up a few meringues for an Eton Mess… 4 egg whites…
What is deemed acceptable and unacceptable behaviour in a conversation varies from country to country, and if I had travelled more I would be able to add some weight to my conclusion, namely, that the British and the Germans represent opposite ends of the spectrum. To put it bluntly: Germans are rude, and the British lie. Germans don’t mince…
At the weekend we were invited to a traditional German ‘Kaffeeklatsch‘, which is a gathering around a collection of cakes under the pretext of meeting up with friends, but really for the sole purpose of eating cake. Christiane served up this delicious cheesecake, or rather cheese gateau, a delicious combination of sweet sponge and fresh and…
Today, with it being Easter Monday and sunny, we decided to go out and go to Cliveden, a National Trust property near Maidenhead. We live just inside the M25, the circular parking lot / ring motorway around London, which means that whenever we go, we have to go along it. Cliveden has the advantage of being only around 25…
Every year in the run up to Easter the UK internet communities are bustling with frantic searches for white eggs. Germans and Greeks are united, for once, in their desperate need for eggs to paint, decorate and display, and the only issue is the fact that there are no white eggs on this island. Chicken eggs, that…

These are about as traditionally German as curries are English. And just as delicious. They are quick and easy to make and work brilliantly for lunches, with salads, tsatsiki, hummus or any other mediterranean foods – check out Marita’s delicious hummus recipe on her website mykitchen.co.uk! 150g plain flour, plus some for dusting 300g white…
Who would have thought homemade custard was so incredibly delicious and easy to make! You’ll end up with four egg whites which you can use to make meringues. And although buying vanilla pods seems quite expensive, you can make the most of it by popping the empty pod into a lidded jar and cover it…
