I got Interviewed By The Hungarian Girl!

Submitted by Gabi on November 9, 2009 – 11:17 am5 Comments

gab Hey Mamaliga fans!

A quick one. One of the reference voices and food bloggers in Hungarian, Central and Eastern European cuisine, travel and culture Suzanne Urpecz from The Hungarian Girl blog, took an interview with me that is featured on her blog - some exciting stuff if you want to know more about the one behind the Mamaliga blog.

In the mean time make sure you read through Suzanne’s posts and fill up on the wealth of information for those of you traveling to Europe, or looking for precious info on European wines, or simply eager to try out some of the most delicious recipes from the same region.

Thanks Suzanne!

Wordless Friday - Porcini Risotto with Aragula and Tomato Salad

There’s nothing like an arugula and tomato salad that was grown in your backyard - our plot in my case. The nutty arugula flavor combines sublimely with the acidity of the tomato. No comparison with store bought produce. The porcini risotto was my first try to stick with the original recipe. But for some reason I had to go 8 minutes over the religious 14 minutes of cooking the risotto after the first stock scoop. Nevertheless it turned out wicked!
