0 SPINACH & FETA STRUDEL - DARING BAKERS

After a little more than a week holiday, I am back with yet another exciting and audacious recipe which was supplied by two wonderful members of the Daring Bakers who asked us to make "Apple Strudel"... At first, I was really thrilled when I learnt that I was going to make that Austro-Hungarian speciality and was finally going to be able to test my first recipe from a cookbook I own, but have always been scared of delving into seriously!I won't say that the idea of making strudel dough didn't scare me at first (I'm a fraidy nelly) and make me doubt my baking skills.

0 A DAY IN BERN PART I - UN JOUR À BERNE N°1

There we had a wonderful time cruising through the old streets and admiring the beautiful architecture...Bern is the fifth most populous city in Switzerland (after Zürich, Geneva, Basel and Lausanne) and is situated in the Swiss German speaking part of our country. It was founded on the River Aare in 1191 by Duke Berchtold V of Zähringen who allegedly named it after a bear (Bär in German) he had killed.Luckily most of this town's medieval center has remained largely preserved and is classified as UNESCO...
