Notes about Recipes in this book

• Orecchiette with walnuts, brown butter + Brussels sprouts

  • Astrid5555 on January 08, 2025

    Was pleasantly surprised by this pasta dish, whole family loved it, but then, who doesn’t love brown butter. I browned the butter separately and charred the Brussels sprouts leaves with a little olive oil since I was scared to either burn the already browned butter or to underchar the sprouts, and I like mine very charred. Very delicious!

• Matcha Basque cheesecake

    Despite 2 tbsp of matcha in the batter the matcha flavor was quite subtle. The texture however was amazing, the cake came out perfectly creamy in the middle and got rave reviews from my guests.

• Coffee-pecan banana bread

    Unfortunately, nobody in our family liked this very much. The flavor profile and texture weren't great. I'm not sure if we will even finish the whole loaf.
