March 2019 - Chakula

Al Parco, East Sarajevo

Posted by Irma Zulić | Mar 29, 2019 | 1/5 golden spoons, Gastronomad(s) |

I have long wondered whether I should pay attention to this experience at all. I decided to write a short review, because I live in the hope that everyone wants to get better, so maybe with Al Parco the same happens. But in 3 words: a short horror story. I remind you that the aim of gastronomy stories is to be “undercover”, so the photos are taken with mobile phone camera. For some time, photos from the restaurant “Al Parco” have been popping up on Facebook, which was promising a true gastronomic experience. One Sunday we went to lunch...

Gastronomy weekend: in Split

We recently used the “extended” sunny weekend to head up to the coast. It is really wonderful to enjoy coffee and a view of the shore. Certainly the gastronomic experience is an integral part of every trip. In a multitude of recommendations for restaurants in Split, my choice was quite justified by plenty of gold spoons. And here are the reviews. I remind you that the goal of the gastronomy stories to be “undercover”, so the photos are taken with a mobile phone camera. We came at the time of early dinner. Our destination for hopes was a delicious...

This month #letseat: avocado

Posted by Irma Zulić | Mar 11, 2019 | Gastro Library |

Recently, on Instagram I shared a great idea for lunch: burritos. The key ingredient of burritos is certainly guacamole sauce, which is made up of a favorite of many – avocado. If you use avocado frequently in your diet, I believe that you already have your system where to find a good avocado, how to choose it, because we all know that to find a good avocado is really an endeavor in our market. I decided to do mini research, and in this text summarize the less known and less popular information about this fruit / vegetable. The cultivation...

Pink Truffles

Posted by Irma Zulić | Mar 4, 2019 | Chakula recipes, sweet recipes |

Lately I’ve been experimenting what can all be made in a blender. So, the other day, I mixed up only 4 ingredients and got these delicious and eye-catching truffles. Additionally, the key ingredient was beetroot, about which we talked in the text about superfoods. Beetroot is rich in nitrates and lowers blood pressure, and is recommended to athletes before training because it improves the flow of oxygen in the body. Pack in a jar and it’s a wonderful sign of attention for the upcoming March 8th, right? Preparation time: 20 minutes Ingredients: – 1 smaller beetroot – 50 g coconut...
