A Full Dinner for a Romantic Date Recipes

14 March 2019 Leave a Comment

A romantic dinner is an event to be prepared for so that no everyday things do not distract you from each other, and delicious food shadows the feeling. We have prepared recipes for you for an entire romantic dinner, which will surely please your other half!

Meal 1: Tomato salad with cheese

INGREDIENTS

  • Feta cheese - 300 g
  • Tomatoes (not very ripe) - 5 pcs.
  • Sunflower seeds - 1/2 tbsp.
  • Sesame oil - 2 tbsp.
  • Green
  • Vegetable oil

PREPARING

Rinse Tomatoes and cut into cubes, cut feta into the same cubes and lay out the products in the salad bowl.

We puncture the seeds in the oven, cut the greens thoroughly and add sesame and vegetable oil to tomatoes and cheese. Sprinkle with seeds

We recommend cooking the salad right before a romantic dinner for it to be fresh

Meal 2: Trout with champagne

INGREDIENTS

  • Pink trout (fresh) - 1.5 kg
  • Butter (cold) - 200 g
  • Champagne - 1 bottle
  • Flour - 1 tbsp.
  • Lemon juice - ¼ tbsp
  • Egg yolk (fresh) - 4 pcs.
  • Thyme - 3-5 sprigs
  • Parsley Green
  • Salt
  • Ground white pepper

PREPARING

Clean, wash the trout and dry a little, then sprinkle (not forgetting about the inner part) with salt and spices. Wash the parsley and separate the leaves

Spray the special baking pan with oil, sprinkle the bottom of it with the greens, spread the trout top with melted butter (about 3 tablespoons). Heat the oven to 175 C and bake a fish

After five minutes add 1/8 liters of champagne to the trout and continue to bake for another 15-20 minutes. To make the fish not dry, occasionally pour a fish broth into the baking form

While the trout is being cooked, prepare the sauce: melt 1 tablespoon butter in a pan, heat and add flour, fry constantly stirring for 1-2 minutes at low heat. Then pour 1/4 liters of champagne into it and leave on the fire for another 10 minutes

When the trout are being prepared, drain the fish broth from the form and add it to the sauce. Boil the mixture and let it slightly evaporate (it has to decrease in size for about 4 tablespoons). Mix egg yolks, sour cream, vinegar and 2-3 tablespoons of champagne and add to the sauce. Cut the butter into pieces 50-70 g in size, and preheat the sauce on low heat, then add small doses of the mixture to the sauce, mixing it with crochet until it transforms into a thick creamy mixture. At the very end add salt to the sauce

Remove the skin from the ready fish, put it onto a dish and add sauce

Meal 3: Pistachios dessert

INGREDIENTS

  • Pistachios - 100 g
  • Sour cream - 100 g
  • Milk - 3 tbsp.
  • Gelatin - 10 g
  • Sugar powder - 2 tbsp.
  • Chocolate - 50 g

PREPARING

Pistachios are finely cut. Out some of the nuts aside, leaving them for decoration. Beat the sour cream with sugar powder and mix with pistachios (whipped cream is a classic ingredient of any dessert for a romantic dinner at home)

Add cold boiled water to gelatin (in proportions 6 to 1). After it has swallowed, dissolve it in a water bath, cool to room temperature and add to cream with nuts

Dessert is put onto a vase bowl and placed in the freezer for 2 hours. Decorate a ready-made dessert with melted chocolate and more nuts

Chocolate Espresso Coffee Cake

Chocolate espresso coffee cake

For all of the times I’ve eaten coffee cake, not once has it actually tasted like coffee. I was pondering that fact a short while ago, and I became profoundly disturbed by the thought. Why would one not want their coffee cake to actually taste like coffee? I can understand if it’s called  a crumb cake. But f you’re going to serve someone a coffee cake, it had better live up to the name.

Chocolate espresso coffee cake

The more I thought about it, the more upsetting it became. How terrible it is to trick people into thinking they’re about to enjoy the heavenly brew that is coffee, come to find they’re just getting a mouthful of cinnamon and sugar. I can’t think of many experiences more disappointing than that.

IMG_5451 I had to take matters into my own hands - and that’s how this cake was born. When I brought it into work,  several of my coworkers, independently of each other, proclaimed that this was the best treat I’ve ever shared. So I think that qualifies as a success, no?

Generally, the crumbly topping is the best part of a coffee cake, and there is no exception here. Especially since this crumble topping is sprinkled with a healthy dose of chocolate. The cake itself, though, is nothing short of wonderful either. A generous pinch of espresso powder, a dash of cocoa powder, and my favorite sweetener, coconut sugar, make a seemingly simple cake taste quite complex.

IMG_5416

This is the perfect cake to have on hand for guests, or just for an everyday treat. If you’re a coffee lover, there’s no excuse for you to skip over this one. And if you’re not a coffee lover, you soon will be!

Are you a coffee fiend? How do you take yours? I generally prefer mine black, but every now and then I pour in a splash of almond milk. And if I’m feeling really fancy I’ll use my frother and make myself a little latte. What are your favorite coffee flavored treats?

Chewy Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies

21 December 2014 by Jodye 4 Comments

Fudgy Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies IMG_5340

You’ll be happy to know that I’ve finally decided to go with a seasonally appropriate recipe, being that Christmas is right around the corner. What is the culinary epitome of Christmas to most people? Candy canes; smooth, rich hot chocolate sprinkled with marshmallows; and, of course, plenty of indulgent desserts. Well, it seems I’ve bundled all of these into the perfect cookie. A chewy peppermint hot chocolate cookie, to be exact.

Fudgy Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies IMG_5307

I never realize what a sucker I am for mint chocolate until I eat it. Honestly, it doesn’t sound all too great in my head, but when I actually take a bite of the classic flavor combination, my mind is blown. Every. Single. Time. In fact, I was recently having a late night snack of tea and chocolate, when this very phenomenon happened. You see, I took a sip of my peppermint tea just seconds after I’d put a piece of chocolate in my mouth. The chocolate began to melt and mingle with the mint and I was left craving more. This has become a thing. Anyway. on to the cookies!

Fudgy Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies IMG_5332

A not-too- sweet chocolate cookie dough is the base, with crushed candy canes, chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows perfectly distributed throughout. To put a healthier spin on these seemingly over-indulgent treats, I used whole wheat pastry flour and rolled oats to form the dough, along with a combination of coconut sugar and molasses rather than traditional brown sugar. I love the rich flavor of these sweeteners. They always seem to add such a nice depth to chocolate recipes. Coconut haters rejoice - the coconut oil and coconut sugar in this recipe don’t leave even the slightest hint of coconut flavor in the final product. Chocolate does that. Especially double chocolate.

Fudgy Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies IMG_5304

Mini marshmallows and candy canes add wonderful texture contrast to these cookies. While the marshmallows bake, they get crispy on the outside and stay chewy on the inside. Crushed candy canes melt a bit while baking, and then set once they’re cool into a brulee type of topping. We have crunch, chew, and melty goodness all in one bite.

These cookies come together so quickly, too. They’ll make the perfect addition to your holiday dessert spread, or a gift for a good friend (even though you waited until the last minute to get them a gift… I won’t tell)!

Ingredients

  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed plus 3 tablespoons water)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup vegan mini marshmallows (I used Dandies)*
  • 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips
  • 2 vegan candy canes, crushed*

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the ground flaxseed and water. Set aside while you mix the wet ingredients. .
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar, coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk in the flax egg until the mixture is homogenous.
  4. With a wooden spoon, stir in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt until just combined. Fold in the oats, marshmallows, and chocolate chips.
  5. Drop batter by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes and press down to slightly flatten.
  6. Bake for 11 minutes, then remove from oven and let cookies cool on pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

*Dandies brand makes traditional sized and miniature marshmallows. If you can't find the mini marshmallows, just chop the larger ones into quarters. Sweet & Sara also make wonderful vegan marshmallows. To crush the candy canes, place them in a zip lock bag and smash with a rolling pin or the back of a knife.

Chocolate Chip Pecan Pumpkin Bread

12 December 2014 by Jodye 1 Comment

Chocolate Chip Pecan Pumpkin Bread

So… I didn’t say that my previous post was going to be the last pumpkin recipe of the season, did I? Didn’t think so. Well anyway, this will be. The very last one. I promise. It will be well worth your time, though. Not that it takes very long to make. I made 10 loaves in two days - so surely, you can find the time to make just one. Everyone will thank you. Plus you won’t have to think about making breakfast for the week. So really, the one hour it will take you to make this (90 percent inactive time, by the way), from start to finish, is saving you precious minutes of sleep every day. And those minutes do add up. Especially with the dark, dreary mornings that make it ever more difficult to drag oneself out of the warmth and comfort of the massive pile of blankets on the bed. And, if there’s a cat snuggling under the covers, then all bets are off. There is absolutely no chance that breakfast is being made. So you’ll thank me later when all you have to do is pop a slice of this wonderfully moist, spicy, pumpkin bread into the toaster and call it a day. Or at least a well rounded breakfast.

IMG_5185

I opted for decadence here, throwing buttery pecans and chocolate chips into the batter for this particular loaf. But I did a lot of experimenting in the 9 other loaves I baked, and the results were stellar. Coconut sprinkled on top of the loaf becomes perfectly toasted while baking, leaving you with a nutty, crunchy topping, that pairs perfectly with plump raisins stirred into the batter. I also experimented with the all too appropriate pumpkin seeds, as well as tangy cranberries, chopped dates, and slivered almonds. All of these mix in options turned out beautifully, so I can safely say that you should just go with whatever you happen to be in the mood for at the moment.

IMG_5210

What I love most is that, while this loaf is certainly wholesome enough for breakfast (with the requisite smear of peanut butter, of course), it is also a perfectly acceptable dessert. Dressed up with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, or perhaps even served warm with homemade caramel poured over top, nobody will be able to resist. Maybe some ice cream, too? I certainly think I could enjoy something like that.

  • 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax plus 6 tablespoons water)

  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips plus extra for garnish (optional)*
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans*

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together ground flax and water. Set aside to gel for a few minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the flax eggs, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, coconut sugar, molasses, and vanilla extract. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  4. With a wooden spoon, stir in flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until no large lumps remain. Do not over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Spread batter into prepared loaf pan, then sprinkle with chopped pecans and chocolate chips, pressing in slightly.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool in pan for 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

*You may replace chocolate chips and pecans with any combination of mix-ins in equal amounts. Some of my favorites include pepitas, coconut flakes, raisins, almonds, dried cranberries, and chopped dates.
