I’m not a bread eater. I don’t really like bread. With the exception of a warm crispy ‘kaak’ and this bulgur bread. This is really exactly what I’m looking for in a loaf of bread.

That kind of bread.

It’s always a bit difficult when it comes to pies. As long as the dough is good. Exactly soft enough. Just crunchy enough. Evenly. And the filling also matches the amount of dough.

When you think of a hearty soup, you think of a heavy hearty soup. This is a meal soup, but one of the lighter kind. Nice for lunch, nutritious and very tasty. A bit spicy, really something different. And since spinach is one of my absolute ‘favourites’, I’m always happy when you can put this vegetable on the table in a different way. Right?

When you have been given kilos and kilos of quinces from your customer Xandra, you start experimenting. Quinces are ‘tough cookies’ in the sense that they are rock solid and you have to soften them to get them tasty and to use them. It works great in this recipe. And don’t forget, 100 percent plant-based, right?
