Vanilla Magic Cake

Uploaded on : 2022-Jul-27

With only one batter you can make this three-layer vanilla custard cake, and that’s what I call magic. The first time I tried it, I thought how this strange batter in front of me with lumps, magically can turn into what I see on the picture. But I was impressed of the magic that happened in the oven, and the cake turned out to be amazing. A delicious cake with a solid flan bottom, slightly creamy middle and a sponge cake feeling to the top layer.

Neapolitan Pizza

Uploaded on : 2022-Jul-23

This is a homemade version of the famous Neapolitan style pizza. You need to prepare the dough a few days in advance, as you need to let it rest in the fridge for 1- 3 days. If you don’t have a pizza oven as most people don’t. I recommend investing in a pizza stone instead, just make sure to heat it a long time before placing the pizza on it. This recipe gives the pizza is nicely round shape with a thin and crispy bottom with large edges. Buon appetito.
