Lutenica From Grandma’s repast until today
The best Bulgarian childhood memories are linked with the delicious homemade jam, lutenica, and starters which are a must at their table. The canned food for the winter, prepared by traditional old recipes, is a compulsory item in each kitchen cupboard or cellar. There's nothing more tasty than adding some sunlight exposed fresh peppers and tomatoes to your meal, which preserved the unique charm of garden vegetables, even after they have been processed. Ground into big pieces, the tastes are irresistible temptation as a side dish or with a sandwich. Nowadays most people try and find a job or career in the big cities which automatically puts a barrier to the growing and preserving of food. The intense daily routine excludes the ...
Is liquorice good for you?
Is liquorice good for you? Well, like many children growing in the UK in the 1970’s, I only thought of liquorice (if I thought of it at all) as something to be used to reach into the bottom of my packet of sherbet dip. Once wet, the sherbet stuck to the liquorice, but if you ate the two together, you were liable to run out of liquorice before you ran out of sherbet. At least I did! Naturally (probably, on reflection not the best word) I was after the fizzy sensation of the sherbet, and that tingling feeling on my tongue. However, what I often got instead was a coughing fit as the yellow powder hit the back of my mouth. That’s if it didn’t end up all over my school uniform, first. The jet-black liquorice itself was best left to the ...

Simple Waffle Recipe
This is one of the easiest waffle recipes I've tried and one that I use pretty much every time I want to make waffles for breakfast. This is a really simple recipe to follow and once you master the basics, you can start experimenting with the recipe.

The buttermilk makes these waffles extra buttery, but of course, it also adds calories! Simple Waffle Recipe The easiest waffle recipe that just taste divine! 2 ...
10 Best Knife Sharpener Reviewed [2019]
Anyone who owns a knife definitely needs a knife sharpener. Even if you are using the highest-quality knife, it will eventually get dull over time. Using a dull knife can be very dangerous. In order to keep it safe, you have to sharpen it regularly. Take note that a knife sharpener is entirely different from a knife steel/honing steel in the military. A knife sharpener will provide a new edge to your knife while a knife steel will align the edge. Most knife sets include a honing steel so you might think that this is all you need. Honing without sharpening can make your knife dull over time. Simply put, if you only have a honing steel then you must also buy a knife sharpener. Having a dull knife can make your work ineffective. So, how can ...
