Update: Für das deutsche Rezept nach unten scrollen!

Today I’m finally fighting against my writer’s block. I didn’t stop to photograph, or beware! cooking and baking. But when it came to blogging my head was blank.

Blueberry-Lemon-Tart

 On the other side I had so many things floating around my head, because just recently I began to work on my diploma thesis. Which is a totally new territory to me.

I would say „so we see what happens next“, but I already know what will happen next… vacation! Yes, finally I’ll have some days off! Next week I will be staying in Bruges in Belgium. From there we will make some trips in Flanders, as to Gent, Brussels, Antwerp, Lille…

I’m excited and looking forward to this trip! If you have ever been there, or live there and have some tips for me, I would be pleased. Let me know!

Blueberry-Lemon-Tart

There happened so much that I can tell you, that fighting down the blockade was really easy! But a blog post is nothing without food. So I recommend you this light and fresh summer tart.

Enjoy some blueberries, as long as you can. This tart is just perfect. Because it can be best eaten cooled. And with it’s tangy flavour of the lemon and the sour cream it’s great in the heat. If you have some other flour in your pantry, than the common wheat flour, mix something up and try it in that crust. Spelt, whole wheat or something gluten-free like quinoa or teff, will make a nutty crust, that pairs well with the filling.

Heidelbeer-Buttermilch-Panna CottaBlueberry and Buttermilk Panna Cotta

blueberry and buttermilk panna cotta

Being ill with a painful tonsilitis, which keeps me the week at home, I have a lot of time to spend with my blog. Lucky you!

Last weekend I made those beauties: Buttermilk Panna Cotta layered on blueberry puree.

blueberry and buttermilk panna cotta

Originally I wanted use up a mango fruit. I searched the internet and in the end I found a recipe at Tartelette’s. But as it came to peel the mango I realized it’s just over. Over ripe. Smelled a little bit alcoholic. So no dessert with mango then! But I already liked the idea of panna cotta. I mean I love panna cotta! My favourite dessert is coconut panna cotta. But I always want to try something different, new. And the buttermilk attracted me. Luckily it came into my mind, that I still have some frozen blueberry puree.

So after thawing the puree, I gave it into some nice glasses with the help of a funnel. And then I refroze the glasses with the puree. When it’s frozen it’s a lot easier to layer the panna cotta (or whatelse you like) on the puree so that they do not mix. The buttermilk gives the panna cottas a slight sour note. It tastes good, especially in combination with the fruit, but furthermore I prefer the classical preparation with cream.

I used leaf gelatine. And maybe a little bit too much. The recipe I adapted was with powdered gelatine. As I am not used to it and I’m liking the leaves, I tried to adapt it. The panna cottas were a bit too firm, but still good. I used 3 and a half leaf. I think 2 and a half or 3 leaves are enough. If you want to use powdered gelatine, the original recipe calles for 4 grams (1 3/4 tsp.) dissolved in 1 Tbsp. water.

And feel free to change the kind of fruit puree! I’m convinced, that it tastes delicious with (almost) every kind of fruit. Already thinking of apples, pears, quinces in this season or strawberrys in summer.
