Welcome to my recipe collection.

These recipes offer a delicious mix of new and old world flavors. From the kitchens of my mother and grandmother in Transylvania to the new fusion mixes from my home kitchen in Canada. I have been inspired by the fickle tastes of my children ( vegetarian, pescatarian or whichever way the wind may blow) and my desire to become healthier without compromising taste. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Leave me comments and your favorite recipes!

mix and sieve the flour and the baking powder on a board. Make a well in the centre, pour the sugarinto the centre. Add vanilla and cut the butter into it. Cover with flour and work all the ingredients to a smoth firm dough. Roll it out and press it in a spring form, forming a rim of dough arround the edge.
