We love our whipped cream in coffee, on berries for dessert, really on any of our primal desserts. But it’s nice to have an alternative to dairy and for our Paleo friends. Henry thought it would be good to have some cold coconut milk and stuck a can into the fridge for a couple of hours. When he opened it he noticed that it had gotten very thick on top, so he scooped it out and noticed that it had separated from the coconut water.
So he added a little cinnamon and a little organic vanilla extract to the thick coconut and whipped it up. To our happy surprise it got thick and creamy immediately, and Oh Wow!!! Sooooo good. So since then we’ve been enjoying our morning cup of coffee with a spoon full. So here are a couple of pictures for you – try it, it is so incredibly easy and completely gluten and dairy-free.

Tub Tim Krob (Red Rubies) Recipe : Lucullian delights - an Italian experience: TURKISH DELIGHT or LOUKOUM. I rarely post other people’s recipes here on Lucullian but this time I am (I couldn’t resist something that fits my blog’s name so well, could I?) , I have been making Turkish Delight lately and I would like to share it with you, especially as it is not that difficult. Well that is not wholly true but I find it more fiddly than difficult. One thing I learnt doing it is that the need to focus on what I am doing. The first time I made it, I just jumped into it without thinking about the process beforehand and I ended up with a disaster, a thick gluey glop filled with lumps that had hardened into tooth breaking stones through the long cooking but somehow I felt that I couldn’t give in, I had to try it again. I did some thinking and came up with what I had done wrong. I had used a too big pan, I heated up the corn starch mix to quickly and I should have passed through a sieve.

Ihr denkt jetzt wahrscheinlich "Nu hattse endgültig n Rad ab, wen interessiert denn son Kram? " Mich! :O) Nicht etwa, weil mein heimlicher Berufswunsch Prinzessin ist und ich in unbeobachteten Momenten mit Tüllröckchen und Plastikkrone vor dem Spiegel posiere, sondern weil ich seit der Hochzeit von Charles & Diana (deren Kleid, meiner Meinung nach übrigens das wahrscheinlich hässlichste Hochzeitskleid der Geschichte war) schlicht und einfach alle Hochzeiten des britischen Königshauses gesehen habe und das halt einfach dazu gehört - Basta! Eigentlich wollte ich dieses kulturelle Hochereignis viel ausführlicher zelebrieren, die ganze Woche sollte unter dem Eindruck der Hochzeit stehen, der KuLa sollte entsprechend geschmückt werden und ich wollte gaaanz viele britische Rezepte vorstellen.

One of the many perennial images on Pinterest is that of a tiny gorgeous slab of caramel topped with fleur de sel. Well, every time I see that image I salivate, and I've been dying to try my hand at a recipe of sea salt-topped caramels ever since.
When I started looking around, I realized there was a catch. Every recipe I stumbled upon involved corn syrup. Corn syrup just gives me the heebie-jeebies. Caramel didn't involve corn syrup when it first arrived on the scene, so why is so prevalent now? I guess it makes the caramelizing process a little bit easier and faster. We modified Chez Pim's recipe a bit, most notably adding vanilla because, well, we love vanilla, but also because we wanted to use our homemade vanilla extract prominently in a recipe.

Dessert. Zap* I love books. All kinds of books. We have hundreds of them at home. My granny must have started it all, the house was always full of books and one of my first activity of choice was climbing up the bookshelf and browsing through books, cookbooks in particular. Me and my brother would rate photos found in cookbooks or on recipe cards and discuss at length about the tasty and icky bits. I must have been about three or four. I enjoy a good fantasy novel, from the likes of Tolkien, Pratchett, Trudi Canavan or just about any fantasy book that catches my attention. In order to maintain some living space in the house I have stated some clear rules about buying cookbooks and I try to stick to them.
I also tend to avoid impersonal collections of recipes or books without any distinctive style or personality.

Sea Salted Caramels « The Patterned Plate. You could say that when it comes to candy, my childhood was deprived . Sure, I had halwas, ladoos (sweet lentil balls), gulab jamuns (fried sweet milk balls, soaked in a thick, rose water flavoured sugar syrup) and the like but…no candy. I didn’t know what a dolly mixture was, much to the amusement of British mates. Or pastilles, toffee and fudge. Caramel was a dark, burnt, chemically sweet tasting, thin sauce that sat on top of a conical creme caramel made out of a Foster Clarks packet.
So, I had a lot of catching up to do when I lived in Aberdeen. Then, my Mother-in-law took me to a sweetie shop in a fishing village of Stonehaven on the coast of Aberdeen. It was not long after that, at Lakeland, that I bought a sugar thermometer on an impulse. Whenever I want inspiration for edible gifts, I turn to this book. Nothing makes me feel more like a conjurer than using a sugar thermometer. Word of warning. That’s the health and safety bit done…now… These aren’t difficult to do, at all. Jelly Shot Test Kitchen.
