By my side.....




Last week it was full of surprises and I want to share them with you. My blog was mentioned in Saveur magazine, one of the most important and related publications in the world gastronomy, which were 55 great global food blogs. My blog was there representing Argentina. I was surprised and happy...., very happy........


It's a proud to be alongside great blogs that I admire and, thank to Saveur Magazine because it included my work on this such wonderful list.





Because of this I´d have done a great recipe, but I didn´t. I opted by some  side dishes according to the season


Simple bruschetas on ciabatta bread, chopped tomatoes, chopped garlic and grated muzzarela. Oven for gratin, sprinkle with minced basil, a thread of olive oil and fried quail eggs.  Delicious!









Potato salad and quail eggs, were also at our table this week. Cherry tomatoes wrapped in ham.
As you can see many sides. And even the last week chocolate cake leftover has been transformed into a new dessert only  adding a raspberry syrup

And finally but not less important, as we are in full season, yesterday I baked an asparagus tart with mascarpone, which can be served with meat or fish  or as  a starter. 








I hope you enjoy it and have a beautiful week




Mascarpone & asparagus tart

1 package puff pastry
1 tablespoon oil
2 shallots or one medium onion, chopped

Salt to taste



Directions:

Roll out the dough and line onto a rectangular pan

muy bueno el post... pero casualmente, me es familiar, yo ya he visto esa receta... y curiosamente, hay otra compatriota que hace la misma receta. Porfavor sigue este link

Desde Europa, vemos muchos blogs, pero lo fundamental en esos blogs, es la creatividad y la innovación, creo que habria que haber un rigor en lo que se hace.
Enhorabuena por saber calcar una receta ya publicada.

Gracias Victoria,pero veo que desde Europa no saben leer los blogs, no te has dado el trabajo de leer la receta.O si no verias que son totalmente diferentes.La otra es de naranjas y asparragos. Recuerda que todas las tortas de chocolates solo por ser redondas no son iguales. Besos

Isabel said...

Estoy de acuerdo, si hago un bizcocho de chocolate y tú también vengo y te digo que es mío, mío, mío, como si lo hubiera inventado yo! además, en cuanto lo ponemos en circulación para a ser susceptible de ser copiado, menuda novedad....
Gracias por tu comentario, así he podido conocer tu fabuloso blog

Belas fotografias e pratos. ;)

Efectivamente, tienes razón, pero veo muchos blogs culinarios, y claro que se copian unos a otros, pero nunca en el estilismo.
De todos modos, sigue pareciendome muy parecido. Innovación y creatividad es lo que hace falta.
