A few days ago, we had our first couple of warm days of the year (not a fan, and not happy). We ate our first asparagus and turnips, and now the time has come for rhubarb. A while ago we made a rhubarb compote to go with this wonderful cheesecake, and now we have created a lovely lemon rhubarb cake.

Read MoreThe Indian kitchen is not that well known in The Netherlands, but it’s incredibly rich and has so many different aspects to it. Pretty understandable, considering India is about 95 times bigger than The Netherlands. So, the time has come for some rich flavours and the great stories from Rakhee.
As you might expect with a blog name like “Box of Spice”, Rakhee sent me a spice mix to go with this recipe. I wish I could order a year’s supply of this, because it was absolutely delicious. But I will give you the recipe so you can try it out for yourself.

Your energy bill all use kWh, at school you learn about joule, and you can track your calorie intact when you go on a diet. But what is energy exactly, and why does energy matter?
Read MoreNiets is zo lekker als eigen gebakken taart uit de oven, geen betere start van de dag dan met een grote stapel pannenkoeken. Er is zoveel mogelijk met een beslagkom, pollepel en oven.
Dit schreven we aan Kosmos uitgevers. Wij weten dat met een liefde voor taarten en cakes ons bedrijf is ontstaan. En we weten ook dat het de creatieve uitdaging van het vegan en glutenvrij bakken is die ons elke dag weer drijft. We delen niet altijd de recepten of gooien alles op social media want al hadden we geen Food Bandits, je vindt ons altijd in de keuken.
Na 7 jaar te hebben geblogd was een kleine break wel op zijn plaats maar toch miste ik het wel om gekke quotes te delen, al beloof ik dat de 'live, laugh, smile' -achtige quotes hier nog steeds niet gedeeld zullen worden, een grafbek geniet nog steeds mijn voorkeur- om wat uitgebreider te kunnen schrijven over een recept of waar wij met Food Bandits mee bezig zijn,
