About Me
Borned in Bilbao, lived in the US for 9 yrs where I went to college and my dream would definitely be taking 1yr off to go to cooking school.
My favorite things to cook
Mmmmm, hard to say! I guess what I like most is trying out new recipes regardless of the type of food.
My favorite family cooking traditions
One of my best childhood memories is the time I spent with my mom trying out new desserts recipes. They did not always come out right but it was fun. It definitely hooked me.
My cooking triumphs
Better talk about my tragedies ;-)
My cooking tragedies
Macarons!!!! Those little french biscuits didn't come out. I will try one more time soon.
