Boost your immune system now

You can make a batch of vegetable, beef or chicken broth. Point is, that all cooks very long and on low heat to keep as many minerals and nutrients as possible and warm your system. If you fill it hot into sterilized glass bottles, they are good for several weeks in the fridge.

Lilac is in full bloom - bring spring into your kitchen

Lilac, oh what wonderful fragrance. And Yes, that can be captured into a bottle. Make Lilac syrup or jelly and your table offerings will be special.

stand still in the kitchen?

The virus crisis is forcing all of us to a halt. At the same time, it gives us a wonderful opportunity to stand still, think and remember, to review our life and to find joy in the kitchen:

We can ask ourselves, what was the favorite cake my grandmother baked, my uncle's homemade pizza, or my mother's party stew?

Maybe it's a great time to organize your recipes?
Maybe it's time to think about forgotten tastes?

Or maybe, in case you are in the country or near a park, you can venture out and collect the first wild herbs and make pesto.  This is amazingly delicious with pasta.
