This is more a food porn post. A sweet friend invited me over for a morning tea that she was hosting the day of my birthday and she put out an impressive spread with a nice variety of sweet and savoury and most things were homemade- how lovely!
She made awesome dips and she was nice enough to give me some recipes!
Liptauer Dip
Process 60g softened butter and 250g cream cheese with 1 small onion, 3 anchovies, 8 cornichons and paprika, capers and caraway seeds to taste.
Herbed- ricotta spread
Combine 400g ricotta with 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese and finely chopped black olives, chives and fresh thyme.
A close up of the impressive serving dish with cheese balls with three coatings.
A delicious moist (Italian?) orange cake– Mmmm I should get the recipe for this. What cute paper!
Thanks for hosting Christine, I had a tasty time.
