Green Beans Stew

Gold of Bacau is my favorite bean. This pale yellow variety has juicy, slightly sweet taste and long flattened pods. No strings, no starchy flavor. Fresh and tasty - perfect for the summer.

Baked salmon with sour cream

This simple dish could make a light summer lunch served with rocket salad. It has a wonderful taste and the aroma of the Salmon blends perfect with the sour taste of the sour cream. Easy and fast for prepare it could be a good choice either for everyday or for special occasions. 

Summer, Magic and Chanterelle Soup with Garlic and Summer Savory

Hello, Summer! You know, I've been waiting for you for so long. 

I love your long days and noisy nights, I enjoy the abundance of species you give birth of, I love the forest with its magic. The birds, the insects, the people, we all love you, summer. 

I hope, you will not go away fast. Let us appreciate the abundance of your fruits and vegetables, the freedom, the magic. You make me so happy... 

Since ancient times women have been celebrating the night of the summer equinox. Full moon is also soon, in only two days. 

I love the magic of equinox - the balance between the seasons after which the scales start growing heavier to one of the sides. But today there is a balance - ephemeral, but still. This magic time of the year deserves a magic kind of dish to celebrate. The fruity smell of Chanterelle. Its golden color. Its orange skin and peppery taste.
