Pork with honey and ginger

Life has been really busy in the past few weeks. New job, new people, new challenges, so that’s why this post is so very late. But I hope the wait was worth it. The following dish is simple, yet amazingly tasty. One of my favourites and it’s surprising, because it contains pork. A lot of pork, really. But you know, at the end you get this meaty ... meat, and it doesn’t taste like one. It’s sweet, a bit savoury and not very pork-like. So those of you who aren’t exactly pork-fans: try it out! And be a convert.

Don’t be intimidated by the length of the ingredients list, the most expensive part is the pork itself. As you will notice, the preparation can be quickly done, since it’s just a matter of rough chopping.

Vegetable stock from scratch

So, as I said in my previous post, the time of comfort food has come. Thankfully there are some great recipes in Italian cuisine, like the one I’m going to talk about in my next post. But first, you will need to learn how to make some proper vegetable stock. And here’s how you do it the healthy way. If you can’t be bothered with the real deal, use a stock cube, but that’s cheating. Just sayin’.
