Food | Bread Sticks

Hey there, pasta fans – ever wondered where good ol’ breadsticks originate?

Turns out, a 17th-century Italian baker gets the credit (though his ghost probably feels miffed, we’re not sure).

Today, breadsticks come in many shapes, sizes, flavours, and even continents. They could be Italian-style Grissini, a cinnamon dessert or an oversized American appetizer. PSA: Homemade breadstick glory achievable in 20 mins flat! Let’s get baking, people!

Food | Coffee Roasted Nuts

An AI Generated image of peanuts floating in a white bowl of coffee.

I stumbled upon the mouthwatering delights of candied coffee-coated peanuts at a South African market.

I then found myself taking a jovial deep-dive into the history and making of this insidiously addictive snack (you’ve been warned!).

From 16th-century nutty coffee concoctions in the Middle East to present-day DIY recipes, I invite you to join me in the exploration of this sweet, salty, bitter blend of coffee and nuts.

Remember, accidents are just part of the process, and ‘burning’ is merely a ghost tan. Bon Appétit!
