My friends refrigerator

He lives in a student residence, on the 4th floor, and he is to lazy to go down second floor to the kitchen where the refrigerator is. So this is his solution.

Long live laziness! 

Easter cake

We managed to return from Thailand's tropical warmth to a Norwegian Easter and even buy a Easter cake! Wish you all a Happy Easter!

Gingerbread

Walked past a bakery and found these, couldn't resist, had to take a picture.

So cute <3

At the dentist

For this Chinese New Year I made some traditional Chinese New Year snack, Sweet Egg Twist (蛋散, dansan), and gave it as a present to my parents. So when my old man in good faith put his teeth on one, the snack that I made, kind of broke his tooth... we heard a cracking sound...

So that brings us to where we are now, and it's confirmed that snacks has kinked my old man's tooth.

Note to self - Next time (if there is a next time), remember to use butter and eggs 🤣

Nailed it!

Typical "Expectation vs. Reality".

Tried for the first time to make Sweet Egg Twists (Chinese New Year Snack) - 蛋散, dansan.

What I imagined...

What I get...

Angel cake

A friend of mine sent me this recipe of an Angel cake that is a very "airy" and low-calorie, and told me I had to try it out. Not sure where she found it, but sounds interesting.

What you need:

• 145 g mel
• 100 g melis
• 200 g sukker
• 1 ts. cream of tartar (vinsten)
• 14 eggehviter
• litt salt
• 2 ts. ekte vanilje extract

Instructions:

1. Bland mel sammen med melis i en skål. Bland det godt sammen og legg den til siden.
2. Bland sukker og cream of tartar sammen.
3. Så trenger du 14 store eggehvite (romstemperatur)
4. Miks det godt sammen med litt salt når den har begynt a skummen tilsetter du sukker som er blandet med vinsten. Har du ikke vinsten tar du bare litt dråper sitron saft på den stadium miks i cirka 7 minutter videre slik at marengs er stiv.
5. Tilsett så ekte vanilje extract.
6. Så tar du å sikte i mel med en dørslag i 3-4 omganger.
7. Bland forsiktig, det må holde seg luftig.
8. Så tar du resten av melen…..
9. Sett det  i en bakeform som du har smurt med smør og stek det på 160 C i cirka 40-50 minutter
10. Stek den til den er  gylden brun på toppen.
    La kaken stå i formen i minst 30 minutter før du tar den ut ellers så faller den fra hverandre.

Decorations:

• Jeg strør bare litt melis over hele Angel Food Cake
• Så pynter jeg med litt fersk bær på toppen.
  Jeg brukte fersk bringbær men jordbær eller andre bær går jo like bra.
• Strø litt melis over bæren og kaken.

Banana cake

Found myself a recipe want to try out.
Don't know where my mother got this but sounds interesting.

• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup (= 1 1/2 cup or 150g) melted butter
• 2-3 ripe bananas

1) Crush the bananas, so it is ready.

2) Make eggnog by mixing the egg and sugar in a mixer (or bowl).

3) Then mix the remaining ingredients with the eggnog.
     Pour the bananas in the end.

4) Mix well and pour the contents of a well-greased tin with a baking paper on 

    (so it will not be so hard to wash the shape after).

Then serve with vanilla ice cream <3
