ClamSalm Chowder

So weather has been a little crazy lately in this part of the world, well, crazy for a foreigner because to be perfectly honest this is a pretty usual thing in Asturias. Whatever, the point is I've been a little depressed with the humidity and the grey skies. So needless to say I needed to treat myself with something warm and comforting. And luckily, the seafood around here is pretty dope. So without really knowing what to make I got some clams and some salmon. And it was when I saw the fresh dill when it hit me: a Fucking Chowder will make you feel fuzzy again.


I love dill, when I get it fresh I put it in everything, but in my opinion it works best with seafood (specially salmon), so I got the idea of a Clam Chowder but with a little bit of salmon as well. And well, it was AWESOME. So, please enjoy this ClamSalm Chowder and thank me later.

Awesome, sexy and delicious.

A treat for the little German inside you. Brezeln (German soft Pretzels)


I know, I know… The tittle sounds wrong, but the taste of these awesome German soft pretzels is so right.

So, the other day I was talking about food with my newly acquired German roommates, while reminiscing about my old times in Germany, I remembered that a good friend of mine gave me his grandma's Brezeln recipe, and it had been a while since I last made them, so I told them, roomies, prepare yourselves for some kick ass Brezeln. Baking them yourself is not a common thing in Germany, or in any other country, I mean, you can always find them cheap and good on the streets or bakeries or even supermarkets. But when you are exiled in a tiny town in Spain, without the access to many of the culinary treats you are used to, well, you do what you have to do.

The day came, and we ended up having Germans over for dinner on Sunday, and they loved them. So, they should be good judges on the authenticity of the taste and texture of this awesome bread. But you will be the ultimate judge. So prepare your taste buds for my German Brezeln. Butter or senf (German mustard) for serving, marmalade or Nutella, try all combinations, get yourself full of delicious starch and fall into a food coma afterwards. Thank me later.

Btw, you can save yourself the trouble of actually making the pretty knots that make up a pretzel and make some rolls, this go awesomely with burgers or any type of sandwich… just saying….


Just look at those bad boys!!!

Asian Inspired Tuna Burgers

Yoh Yoh Yoh people! Sorry I've been away lately. I'd like to say I was busy with a cool project or something, but to be perfectly honest, I have been just extremely fucking lazy, oh and I moved to a different flat and all that boring stuff but no matter, I am back! And I am back with a recipe that is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and make your belly full of happy thoughts.

So, the other day I was thinking: "It would be so could if I could get minced tuna steak" So I decided to go to the supermarket and ask. They usually have a pretty sweet selection of fish. However, their answer was no. But before I turned around and left, they told me: " But I can chop it, and it will be pretty much the same", I was skeptical but decided to give it a try. And the result was pretty awesome!

So when I made sure that the texture was right, I proceeded to make this awesome Asian-Inspired Tuna Burgers, sharp, sweet, sour and savoury burgers that will appeal to the adventurous and will surprise the most conservative.

Anyways, enough chitchat, here is the recipe. Enjoy. Thank me later.

Seriously, how awesome does that look?
