A collaborative food project among woman-friends coming from different countries around the globe and all sharing the love for baking :-)

1. #GloCalBakeryFood (a dessert-trip)

2. Chi pensa di trovarsi di fronte ad una classico raccolta di
ricette rimarrà deluso. Questa raccolta è molto di più, è un
viaggio.

3. Sono giunta all’idea di sviluppare questo progetto attraverso un
cammino durato anni.
Se ripenso al primissimo momento in cui tutto ha avuto inizio, posso
affermare con certezza che il primo passo l’ho mosso nella mia
infanzia. Devo ringraziare infinitamente mia madre e la sua passione
per la cucina. È stata lei ad introdurmi amorevolmente ai segreti del
mangiare italiano ed in particolare pugliese.
In seguito, l’entrare sempre più spesso in contatto con culture
diverse, ha sviluppato il mio interesse per altre “cucine”, per sapori
nuovi e soprattutto autentici.
Negli ultimi mesi le piacevoli chiacchierate “virtuali” con il mio amico
newyorkese David L. Hawthorne, la cui moglie Dorothy era di origine
italiana hanno apportato un nuovo sviluppo.
Con David si è parlato della necessità di creare valore facilmente, un
valore che si possa raggiungere mediante lo scambio di informazioni e
che sia reso immediato attraverso l’uso delle moderne tecnologie. Si è
così sviluppato il concetto di “GloCal Bakery”: ricette di origine
globale riprodotte a livello locale con risultati ottimali.
Un concetto molto importante per me che vivendo a Dresda
(Germania), lontana dalla mia terra, sento spesso la mancanza dei
sapori e degli odori di casa, a me così cari.
Il mio destino è lo stesso di tante altre donne che vivono lontano dalla
propria terra e che ritrovano nelle ricette il legame con le proprie
origini.
Questo libro è dedicato a tutte le donne che, come me, amano la
buona cucina di casa, la diversità culturale o che vivono lontano da
“casa”.
Buon divertimento!

4. Anyone who thinks being in front of a classic recipe collection
will be disappointed. This collection is much more, it is a
journey.

5. I came to the idea of developing this project through a process that
lasted many years.
When I think back to the very first moment when it all started, I can
certainly say that it all started in my childhood. I infinitely thank my
mother and her passion for cooking. She is the one who lovingly
introduced me to the secrets of the Italian food and in particular of
Puglia.
In the years to follow, due to a constant contact with different
cultures, I developed my interest for other cooking, especially for new
flavours and authentic taste.
In the recent months, then, the pleasant “virtual” chats with my
friend David L. Hawthorne from New York, whose wife Dorothy was
of Italian origin has brought a new development.
With David we talked about the need to create value easily, a value
that can be achieved through the exchange of information and is
made immediately available through the use of information
technologies. So it grew into the concept of "GloCal Bakery" i.e.
recipes sourced global, reproduced locally with optimal results.
A very important part of the concept for me, due to living in Dresden
(Germany) and away from my motherland, I often miss the tastes and
the smells of home, so dear to me.
My destiny is the same of so many women who live far away from their
land and that find in recipes the connection to their origins.
This book is dedicated to all women who, like me, love good home
cooking, cultural diversity or live away from "home”.
Enjoy it!!

8. Frambozen - Chocolade cake
(ik maak gebruik van cups, die zijn 0,25L).
Ingrediënten:
3 cup (walnoten (rauw en ongezouten)
1 cup medjool dadels (pit eruit halen!)
1 eetlepel kokosolie
250 ml frambozen (bevroren of vers)
2 eetlepels agave siroop
3 eetlepels extra vergine olijf olie
1 eetlepel cacao poeder (ongezoet)
1 eetlepel carobe poeder (wanneer je de smaak van carobe poeder niet
bevalt kun je ook cacao poeder gebruiken)
Nodig:
Blender/mixer
Kleine kookring (alleen voor het gemak, je kunt ook met de hand of
andere vormen vorm geven)
Om te beginnen, mix de walnoten, de dadels, de carobe poeder en de
kokosolie.
Verdeel ‘het deeg’ in tweeën. Doe de ene helft in de kookring en
stamp stevig aan, haal de ring eraf en daar is je bodem. Doe er
vervolgens flink wat frambozen op (houdt er alleen een paar over voor
garnering). Herhaal het proces met de andere helft ‘deeg’ en zet die er
boven op.
Vervolgens doe je de cacao, de olijf olie en de agave siroop in de
blender zodat er een chocolade saus ontstaat. Als het te stevig wordt
kun je altijd wat meer agave toevoegen (of naar smaak). Giet die
vervolgens over je taartje en garneer met frambozen.
Smakelijk eten!

9. Raspberry - Chocolate cake
Ingredients:
3 cup walnuts (unsalted and raw)
1 cup medjool dates (remove the pit)
1 tablespoon coconut oil
250 ml raspberries (frozen or fresh)
2 tbs agave syrup
3 tbs extra vergine olive oil
1 tbsp cacao powder (unsweetened)
1 tbsp carobe powder (if you don’t like the flavour of carobe you can
use unsweetened cacao powder as well)
What you need:
A blender and a cooking ring
To start blend the walnuts, the coconut oil, the dates and the carobe
powder together.
Divide the mass in two and put the first half in the cooking ring, make
sure it is pressed in well, this will be your cake’s bottom.
Add the raspberries (save some for garnish). Repeat the process with
the cooking ring for the second half as well and put it on top of the
raspberry layer.
For your chocolate sauce you should blend the agave, the olive oil and
the cacao powder together, if it is too thick, add some more agave.
Poor it over your cake, decorate it with the remaining raspberries and
enjoy!

12. Crêpes
Temps de préparation : 15 minutes
Temps de cuisson : 30 minutes
Ingrédients (pour 20 crêpes):
500 g de farine
8 oeufs
½ litre de lait
½ litre d’eau
60 g de beurre fondu
une pincée de sel
Si vous le voulez:
Quelques gouttes d’eau de fleurs d’oranger ou quelques gouttes de
rhum
Zeste d’orange ou de citron
Recette
Verser la farine dans un saladier et faire un puit au milieu. Ajouter les
oeufs, un à un. Ajouter l’huile et un peu de lait pour éviter les
grumeaux. Verser le reste du lait au fur et à mesure. Ajouter le sel et
le beurre, mélanger jusqu’à obtenir une pâte lisse. Ajouter les
ingrédients optionnels si désiré. Laisser reposer 1 heure.
Graisser une poêle et la faire chauffer à feu chaud. Verser juste assez
de pâte pour recouvir le fond de la poêle. Faire cuire la crêpe pendant
environ 2 minutes, jusqu’à ce que les bords deviennent dorés. Utiliser
une spatule pour retourner la crêpe et faire cuire l’autre côté.
C’est prêt! Bon appétit!
Vous pouvez garnir votre crêpe de confiture, marmelade, sucre et jus
de citron… ou, si vous voulez essayer les crêpes salées, vous pouvez
ajouter du jambon et du fromage, des poireaux cuits accompagnés de
bacon et de crème…

13. Crêpes
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Ingredients (for 20 crêpes):
4 cups all-purpose flour (500 gr)
8 eggs
2 cups milk (1/2 litre)
2 cups water (1/2 litre)
½ cup butter, melted (60 gr)
1 teaspoon salt
Optional flavouring:
A few drops of orange blossom water or a little rum
Orange or lemon zest
Recipe
Put the flour in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the middle. Stir in the
eggs one by one. Add the oil and a little milk to keep the batter free
of lumps. Gradually stir in the rest of the milk. Add the salt and
butter, beat until smooth. Add flavouring as desired. Let rest for an
hour.
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium high heat. Pour just enough
batter to coat the bottom of the pan. Cook the crêpe for about 2
minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn
and cook the other side.
It’s ready! Bon appétit!
You can garnish your crêpe with jam, marmalade, sugar and lemon
juice… or, if you want to try savoury crêpes, ham and cheese, cooked
leeks, bacon and cream…

36. Normandy Crêpes
1 litre of warm milk
4 cups of pre-sifted flour or 2 cups
unsifted
1 cup vegetable oil
6 eggs
2 Tablespoons of rum
2 Tablespoons of sugar
Recipe
Mix thoroughly and chill for 1 hour before using.
Get the pan really super hot, then put a little oil in the
pan and pour it out. You want to season the pan.
Then, put a ladle of batter in the pan and swirl it
around the pan so it is paper thin. It will cook fast, so
you have to do this quickly. Then make sure you have
powdered sugar ready to sprinkle between the crêpes.

37. My thanks for the co-operation and the wish and love to share go to:
Amanda Stoel. I am a single mother of two and healthy living is my
passion, I researched nutrition and lifestyles for the last five or six
years and eventually developed a way of eating, preparing food I am
convinced off are not only very tasty but also very healthy! I call them
my 'guilt free pleasures'. One of my favourite GFP is this
chocolate/raspberry cake. Not only is it delicious and fulfils your daily
chocolate needs, it adds to your health to boot! My country is The
Netherlands, city is Bussum and I am 38
Catherine Newnam. Originally from Chartres, France, now living in
San Diego, California, USA with my hubby Michael and baby son,
Jack. 36 years old (37 in August!), teacher. Chose that recipe because
it is a classic French recipe that everybody usually loves and it can be
accommodated in either a savoury or sweet way!

Inma VP. Seville, Spain, 41 years old. When we are sharing with
friends, I think the kitchen is one of the most wonderful places for
reaching our hearts, especially if it means baking a cake and sharing it
with people who you love This recipe was a little invention I made long
time ago meanwhile I was trying to learn following my curiosity. Hope
you will like it and enjoy it with your beloved ones!

38. Kati Schrödter. Together with my three kids I am living in Dresden, a
city in south-east Germany.
I am working as a network manager within the software industry.
Beyond my job I work as a lector, developing and correcting novel-
plots and I am getting involved with social and cultural projects.
"Eierschecke" is a typical cake from Saxony, my favourite one. I got
the recipe from my beloved godmother, who thought me how to bake
cakes. Meanwhile my "Eierschecke" has also become the favourite
cake of my kids.
As for me (Marxe Urtega), my husband and I are currently preparing
the launch of our company, Maxtia. We want to help companies and
people to teach, learn, inspire and be prosperous. I'm also writing a
book and preparing some courses on personal development.
At home, we loooove this cake. It's traditional in Mexico and really
easy to prepare. Our moms and grandmas used to prepare it on special
occasions (as it is super sweet).
Yvonne Marie Hammond. Born in Chicago, Illinois, USA. I'm an artist
who enjoys flowers, gardening, drawing and cooking!
The reason I chose this recipe is that it is a family favorite. My family
hosted a French exchange student, Christine Chavalier, the summer
when I was 12 years old. Her mother sent us this recipe for my mother.
I remember at the end of summer, Christine's father came to visit us.
He brought, for me, two dolls from Normandy-a man and woman
(which I still have) , and my brother received a set of very nice
puppets because we had a puppet theater. It was very memorable to
me and we've always made the crepes for special occasions- such as
Mother's Day in particular. So that's the story behind the crepes. We
usually serve them with a fruit compote inside with a dollop of
whipped cream on top.
Thanks for all friends!
