I baked these brownies several times. Because I had to adjust the ginger well. Finally I found a good amount!

Vegan Monday: Garlicky Roasted Tomato Spread / Sauce
Yes, you can use this both as a direct spread on your bread or crackers, or you can use it as a sauce, for example for your pasta.
Gluten Free Thursday: Celeriac Balls – Loveliest Vegetable!
Yes, celeriac is my favourite vegetable. I posted several celeriac recipes over the years (find them here). This is yet a new trial, turning them into vegetable balls!
Vegemessut – Vegan Food Fair 2020 At Kaapelitehdas
This weekend, at Kaapelitehdas in Helsinki, there is the vegan food fair, “Vegemessut”. It’s the biggest vegan food event in Nordic countries and it has been organised a few times already. Lots of vegan food brands will be there, so if you are interested in the latest trends and products in vegansphere, be there! I will be visiting it for the first time as I always forgot it in previous years and then it was sold out. This year, thanks to a friend reminding on Facebook, I got my ticket and will be there on Saturday morning. Personally, I have mixed feelings about products like vegan “cheese”, vegan “sausage” etc. but it is still good to go and try some of the new products. So, maybe I’ll see some of you there!

Vegan Monday: Just A Simple Garlicky Mashed Potato Recipe
I decided to start this week with a simple enough recipe. I mean, mashed potatoes, how hard can it be? In this recipe, you just add a few extra ingredients to potatoes and then you’re good to go. But oh, that garlic flavour…. yum.
Cirikta or Cilikta or Pisi or… My Mother’s Mini Monsters Of Fried Dough
As the title indicates, I am not sure if there is a real name for these cuties. We always called them “cirikta”. But some call a similar recipe “cilikta”. Some call it “pisi” but I’m pretty sure it’s not pisi because pisi is rather yeasted dough. I just like calling them cute little monsters because of the shape of fried dough!
Vegan Monday: Biscotti With Dried Dates, Dried Plums And Macadamia Nuts
Biscotti. Oh how I love it. I made and published in the blog different kinds of biscottis before. They all had eggs. This one is an eggless vegan one!
First Recipe Of 2020: Sour Cream Cake With Raspberries And Sliced Almonds
First things first: happy new year! I chose this delicious recipe as the first one in 2020 because as author Dean Koontz said, “where there is cake, there is hope”.
