We have this long pepper from Java in the range of our online spice shop. Apart from bringing some spice (less than traditional pepper), this long pepper from Java mainly adds a lot of aroma to your dishes. This pepper develops tasty aromas of violet, liquorice and resin. This is makes it an ideal pepper to go with desserts, such as this chocolate pudding.
Making your own vanilla extract is really a breeze. What do you need? Some vodka and a few vanilla pods from our spice shop. And some patience :-)
If you are looking for inspiration for an ultra-delicious and original appetiser for your guests, I can definitely recommend the Tuna Shichimi Togarashi(Japanese blend of herbs and spices) with mango salsa. It is in itself a simple and quick-prepared dish that you can also easily prepare in advance and still spend time with your guests. The Shichimi Togarashi spices come from our spice shop.
I just added Combava to the range of our online herb shop. And I wanted to try this out anyway. I set about incorporating it into a tiramisu. Not at all the classic tiramisu with cocoa and amaretto or nowadays with speculoos. No, this time I wanted to keep it fresh. It became a tiramisu with mango, passion fruit and, of course, my Combava.
The combava is a kind of small lime and is very intense and citrusy in flavour. Use it in moderation. You can also use it in fish sauces, for example.
This is a tasty little recipe for a tasty bite at lunch, or just enjoy during a Sunday brunch. Mega delicious!
