love the look of the beetroot dish.

I don't add cilantro - not my fav. Instead of chives I prefere red onion.

It's season for broadbeans here - yummy

this afternoon

Yasaman jan, You are great!

from my pantry - prune butter, apple pulp, apricot butter, bean in vinegrette (yummy starter), cucumbers in brine... Today I'm going to make ajvar and roasted paprika. And later this month - marinated, pasteurized and dried mushrooms.

tonight - baked camembert with vinaigrette (narsharab instead of vinegar)

The cake I remember from my childchood. My grandma used to bake it every Sunday

Dear Yasmeena, are you or your husband aware that rennet and parmesan cheese come from pigs?

I think that Parmiggiano Regiano is made using calf rennet. What made you thinking that it is made of pig rennet? Maybe you mean any parmesan type cheeese?
We are not Muslims, so such restrictions do not apply to us. But we rarely eat any meat and meat products.
