recipe

Many recipes start with the same story, someone get you pears or plums or whatever (and you already have yours in my case pears and you have to do something because otherwise they get lost.)  And I do not like the waste of food either fruit or something else. Remember that it's still hot here (read summer) so it's easy to spoil it. I can't wait Autumn arrive is my favorite season. Well I had pears (see photo) and Gerardo (hubby) brought more pears, I remembered having seen this recipe, I did not know where or in what language I finally found it in  a French site . The pears and the chocolate go well absolutely and this is a cake / dessert because  is moist and with the pears  is really good. Depending on the mold you can put 4 or 5 pears. And since pears and chocolate go so well together I love this recipe has chocolate sauce as well. Adapted from : Cuisine Actuelle    (in french) Ingredients 4 or 5 little pears 8 cl water 1 cinnamon stick  170 grams s...

I wish I had done this post yesterday but it was impossible for the usual reasons, in a way my time is not mine for now and it's fine, but finally I'm here with this  passionfruit  dessert. I love maracuya and in many parts it gets frozen and I also, although we are close to Peru it is easier to have frozen  passion fruit  pulp and can be used when you need.  I am really impressed  how  many passionfruit recipes come from Australia or the United Kingdom and are very good. This is a delicious maracuya mousse you just have  the patience to wait. It is better to do it at night and it will be ready for the other day. I noticed  Yotam Ottolenghi   ( an amazing chef) in his book "Sweet " has many passionfruit recipes  he is a really genius in pastry and desserts.  You can find his last book in Amazon UK  . or Amazon.com.
