Full taste with no regrets
Ready for a delicious lunch…..vegan and low carb. Salad wraps filled with Carrots, Cherry Tomatoes, Avocado, Basil-Tofu, Hummus and Vinaigrette.
My Hummus is a light version with Soy Yogurt and less Oil. If you keep it in a tupperware in the fridge, you can keep it for a few days and use it as a spread or as a Dip.
One of my favorites…you might enjoy it too!

And she did it again!
Once a year my grand aunt cookes this very hearty dish called Küttiger Carrots for my family. On the plate you have the special yellow Carrots, that only grow in the region by the small village Küttigen, and Potatoes. When they are cooked you can barly tell the differents, which one’s a potato and which one’s a carrot (as you can see on the photo)….you taste it though!
Traditionally you cook bacon with it, which is important for the taste of the whole dish, sometimes you serve ham or sausages too. And Dijon Mustard is a must on the table by us.
If you want to know more about the “Küttiger Carrot”, have a look at my page “the carrot market of Aarau” which you will find under culinary journeys. I posted This Recipe under “Side Dishes”.
It’s a very simple and old swiss recipe and it’s worth it to try this miraculous carrot if you ever get the chance to.

Chestnut and Carrot Cupcakes
A simple carrot cupcake dough with Almonds and lemon juice and a cream cheese frosting, makes them moist and fresh and soooo delicious!
The Chestnut Cupcakes are a seasonal highlight. If you don’t have chestnut paste in your supermarket, make your own by processing cooked chestnuts with water and sugar to a paste. This paste is great to use for cakes, creams and other desserts.

Emily’s Autumn Quiche
-Tasty Broccoli-Pumpkin Quiche with Goat Cheese, Bacon bits and Almonds-
Find this Autumn Quiche Recipe under “Bread&Pies”
If you are not a fan of Goat Cheese, you can also use other hard, salty Cheeses (strong Cheddar, Gruyere or Parmesan) and instead of soft Goat Cheese on top, you can add on some Brie.
Enjoy! Emily L.
The Carrot Market of Aarau – Aargauer Rüeblimärt
The canton in Switzerland were I live is also called the “Carrot- Canton”, known for it’s carrots and carrot dishes. Once a year the little town Aarau has a big event: the carrot market of Aarau. Of course you can also buy Cheeses, meats, Honey and other things there, but the main attraction is the carrot. Today was the 32.carrot market (every first wednesday of November) with 140 Stands.
It was a very rainy morning. But at the market people had fun and laughed and enjoyed that special day, as it was the sunniest.
And while enjoying some carrot cake and talks with the local farmers I made some photos for you…..you might want to stop by one year when you’re near by…:
On this last photo you see the “Küttiger Carrot” from the little village Küttigen, next to Aarau. The carrot has a special taste, a little earthy like a potato, with a little sweetness. The classic dish you cook with it, is Küttiger Rüebli (Rüebli=Carrot), Potatoes, Ham and 2 different Bacons.
The Recipe for this dish will follow soon.
PS: On every 4.Monday in November they have the Onion Market in Bern….
