Olive Oil

dried bell peppers

This is a terrific appetizer, can be used for bruschetta or added to unsweetened baked goods (bread, pizza, rolls), or can be munched just from the jar. An awesome appetizer.

Pickled pig ears

A while ago, I wasn't a huge fan of offal - lungs, tails, ears and the like were off my food chain. But a passion for cooking and an interest in new flavors gradually pushed my usual boundaries. And I'll tell you frankly, pigs' ears in a spicy marinade - it's very tasty. At the same time and the cost of the dish is pennies, and it is prepared very simply. If you're ready to try it, here's the recipe.

Spaghetti with pesto sauce

This dish is a lifesaver when you don't want to spend much time in the kitchen. The Pesto recipe I've already written about is an absolutely amazing sauce that goes great with fish, as a salad dressing, and can turn ordinary pasta into a restaurant dish. Everything is quite simple - while the pasta is boiling, you whip up the sauce in a blender, and in 15 minutes you serve a delicious dish. Even meat lovers will be delighted, proven!

Bread  

Cabbage rolls

I want to share a delicious recipe for cabbage rolls. This is such a great alternative to plain bread. The buns turn out very flavorful, with a crispy crust. In addition, you get a lean version of buns. And they are prepared very simply, without any fuss. Yes, and you can diversify the filling. I'm already thinking of trying them with capers :) It would be delicious with sun-dried tomatoes too.

Potato salad with olives and feta

I've never made potato salads before, I kept thinking potatoes were better served warm as a side dish. But recently I baked pork knuckle, which in itself is quite hearty and nutritious, and I didn't want to serve it with traditional "mashed potatoes" so I thought about potato salad. In winter, the choice of vegetables, which are always available, is small, so I limited myself to feta cheese and olives, and dressed the salad with pesto sauce. It turned out great!

Pizza with pumpkin, goat cheese and ham

I never stop discovering new facets of such a wonderful vegetable as pumpkin. This time I made pizza according to the recipe from the magazine "Gastronom" - I could not pass by the combination of my favorite dish and favorite vegetable, a little modified the recipe to suit myself and it turned out very tasty. My husband and sister, who are not at all delighted with pumpkin, swallowed the pizza in seconds. Well and as always with pizza - everything can be replaced, added and combined depending on your mood. Just please leave the pumpkin out of the dish - it's absolutely delicious.

Sauces  

Pesto sauce

Pesto sauce "Pesto" is a popular Italian sauce made from basil, olive oil and cheese. Pesto "Pesto" is perfect with a variety of pasta, as a salad dressing, and will complement the flavor of fish and meat dishes. Pour this sauce over cutlets or baked fish, and you will be surprised how much the flavor of the dish will be enriched. Classic "pesto" is prepared in a marble mortar with a wooden pestle, but the age of progress has simplified and accelerated the process to the maximum - grind all the ingredients in a blender and voila, the sauce is ready!
