Hi, I am Anne. I just love food. I love reading about food, writing about food, cooking food, and not surprisingly, eating food. I live in Stockholm, Sweden, with my husband, our two boys, and our cats. In this blog, I write about my experiences and give you new recipes that are famous here in Sweden.

We made some really yummy buffalo chicken last night for dinner, and this is a recipe I definitely do NOT want to lose. The method is super simple, and I bet this could work with different spicing as well.. might have to try it with an orange chicken soon.
It might feel a bit fiddly because of different things to prepare, but don't worry - it's all fast and simple. And well worth the effort, SO good!
Crispy Baked Buffalo Chicken
Serves 6-8
1,5 kilos of boneless chicken - we used chicken thighs, cut in two. (I'd cut breasts in maybe 3-4 pieces, depending on the size)  ..read more

Titus first had tomatillo salsa at Dos Caminos restaurant in NYC, on our trip in early 2020. (As a side note, it was in the airport on the way back that we first really heard about Covid and what it might mean…)
He loves it. Green, spicy, sharp and fresh. We then forgot all about it for a while, but recently he’s been asking about it and I hunted for tomatillos for a while. Clearly not grown in Sweden and pretty darn expensive, but eventually I found some. I googled various recipes but ended up doing something like this:
Tomatillo salsa
5 tomatillos
2 shallots (white onion wo ..read more

Have we ever talked about Langos? Originally an Hungarian dish, but made very much every-man's-festival-favorite during the 90's in Sweden. I never tried them back then, mostly because the traditional way of serving them was with roe - not my fave. However, my pal Dagmar made them for me, and her topping was far superior: creamy fatty smetana (to make all the other things stick), crispy fried bacon, sharp chopped red onion and strong umami-rich Västerbotten Cheese. Oh, and you begin by rubbing the newly fried bread with a slice of garlic.
We often requested it when she made us d ..read more

Every Friday is Taco-Friday in Sweden. I know, weird, right? (Read more about that crazy phenomenon in this interview I gave many years ago, here!)
Well, we don’t eat tacos, or versions thereof, EVERY week but it’s a regular occurrence for sure. And I’m always interested to hear about new fun ideas. My husband found a photo of pretty unorthodox shrimp tacos on Instagram, and I decided to make a version at home.
This is the kind of recipe that’s not really a recipe, just an assembling instruction. Here is what we used:
-nachos
-cooked shrimp
-finely chop ..read more

I just got the urge to show you our Nespresso setup. (And no, this is in no way a sponsored post - I just happen to really love it.)
This is a really important part of our kitchen and daily routine. I start most mornings with a cup of coffee, and if I’m alone I always opt for the Nespresso Vertuo. We have a Moccamaster too but that’s really only worth it if I’m making coffee for more people. My husband usually has breakfast at work, so unless he’s working from home, it’s just me.
And speaking of working from home, Nespresso is perfect for the after-lunch coffee as well. My favorite f ..read more

Titus favorite treat when we go out for coffee is always a chocolate muffin. I figured he should learn how to make them, so he can always have some at home. These turned out great - very tender and soft, and very indulgent with all the chocolate.

Here’s a small side salad that I made the other day! It’s super easy. Go ahead and add fresh chili if you want. Some sliced red onion wouldn’t be bad, either. But it’s also really good just like this!

100 g shredded cabbage
Small handful peanuts, salted, chopped
Large handful coriander, chopped
1 lime, juiced
1 tsp sugar
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp sesame oil
Put carrots and cabbage in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk lime juice, sugar, soy and sesame oil. Pour onto the veggies and mix well. Top with peanuts and coriander. Done!  ..read more

Sticky cake? I know, it doesn't sound that appealing.. the Swedish name is kladdkaka and the original is a chocolate one. A lot like a brownie, but a bit.. stickier. Anyway, you can make tons of versions (just as brownies can be made into blondies) and this is the latest one I've tried - citronkladdkaka. Essentially a lemon blondie with white chocolate. It's incredibly good! Intensely lemony and the perfect balance between tangy and sweet. I highly recommend serving it with some raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Keeps well in the freezer, too - just defrost in the microwave fo ..read more
