Die Küche ist nicht kalt

Wir kochen noch, aber die Zeit zum bloggen bleibt irgendwie nicht. Es sind meist auch keine so spektakulären Dinge, oder sie sind sehr unfotogen. Also nur eine kleine Empfehlung für zwischendurch: Bärlauchpesto machen, auf Blätterteig streichen, aufrollen, in Schneckchen schneiden und ab in den Ofen.

The soy of it all

Soy is amazing. Soy is the multifunctional holy grail of veganism. Soy milk, tofu, mockmeat - all easy and great, and wonderful bases for thousands of dishes. As often, however, the simplest things are the best: Edamame!



Edamame are young soy beans in their pod. You buy them frozen in an asia store, toss them in boiling water for only a few minutes, drain them and add some salt. Then you can eat them as an appetizer, plopping the edible beans out of the (uneatable) pods. Incredibly yummy! And, strangely, not very common, at least in Germany. Therefore, we mention it here. You can cook other things as well with edamame, but so far we did not manage not to eat them right away.

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Suggested music: Alcest - Écailles De Lune (which has absolutely nothing to do with edamame, but was recommended to my while I was writing this little text by my best music recommendation source :-)youtube)
