Crepes
Some of our favorite fillings for sweet crepes are Nutella, honey and chopped walnuts, lemon curd and berries, jam, sugar. You can also do a savory variation - usually I replace 1/3 of the milk quantity with tomato juice and add fresh herbs to the mixture. For savory crepes filling we like sauteed mushrooms and onion, cheese and ham, cheese and fresh herbs.

European Doughnuts (Gogosi, Paczki, Beignets, Berliner)
These doughnuts are a traditional Romanian dessert better known in the US as Paczki. I guess each European country has it’s recipe and they are all delicious; I’ve tasted them as paczki, beignets, berliner. When I bite into one I can see myself in my grandmother’s kitchen waiting for them to be ready so I can indulge. They are best when served warm and nothing beats a home-made doughnut.
