Masterchef Aarhus

Although he won't admit it, Esben is a really good cook. So I am very happy to leave him alone in the kitchen to get his creative juices flowing and to produce a master piece. He also loves to use every single piece of crockery and cutlery available, but that's a master at work! Recently he came home with fresh figs and had an idea for a dessert. He said he had never cooked figs before, but had a good idea. I've included a video of Esben in action and a photo of the winning Masterchef Aarhus dessert: flambéed figs, served with creme fraîche and mint leaves - it tastes divine!

Om nom!

After celebrating Hallowe'en, we had a few pumpkins around the apartment. We wanted to use the pumpkin for something, so Esben was back in the kitchen being creative. The result: a yummy spicy pumpkin and potato soup - perfect for this time of year. And the rest of the pumpkin (we had quite a few!!) is in the freezer for future recipes.
