Moroccan food is rich in both colour and aroma. Generally speaking, you are usually served one of two dishes: couscous or the Moroccan stew tagine. These in turn can be varied endlessly!

Read moreEtiquette at the dinner table in other cultures is not always easy. In Europe, people have been taught that it is important to choose the right glass and the right fork, and to look each other in the eye when making a toast.

Malaysia is a multicultural society with food influences from many parts of the world, and as a tourist it was sometimes easiest to find Chinese, Thai or Indian food. But of course, we also found Malaysian dishes.
Read moreExotic in the freezer, what do you think about it? We have previously shown some signs about exotic meat at Kötthallen in Sundbyberg.

Read moreLast night we finally tried making our own sushi. It was really fun! The rice took the longest to make. It had to be rinsed, boiled, mixed with sushi-su (a mixture of rice vinegar, rice wine and sugar) and then cooled. Anyway, we were happy with the result, and it was really, really good!
Read moreSushi must be one of the best things in the world ... or what do you think? Here we had takeaway sushi for dinner today, and tomorrow we will try to cook sushi ourselves. Anyone who has tried it? If so, do you have any tips for us? I also got a little curious about the history of sushi and read up on it.
