Crema Bueno

French version. Video et recette en version Française.
Un jour mon petit fils Josué me dit: ”Papino, on ne peut plus trouver de la crema bueno, aka: El Mordjene”. Rupture de stock. Je lui dit alors: ”mais c’est quoi se truc la?”
J’ai vite compris qu’il fallait que je trouve une alternative. Il n’y en a plus?.. et bien on va la faire.
La Créma Bueno, ou plus communément connue sous le nom de El Mordjene, est une pâte à tartiner algérienne très prisée, récemment popularisée sur les réseaux sociaux malgré son interdiction dans l’Union européenne en raison de sa composition. El Mordjene se distingue par son goût et sa texture plus souple que le Nutella. Inspiré de l’intérieur du Kinder Bueno, la crema bueno est riche en noisettes, contient des produit laitiers, du sucre et des graisses végétale. J’ai donc imaginé une formule facile a reproduire à la maison et sans huile de palme. Mon secret? c’est la confiture de lait!

Challah Bread

Challah bread is a significant symbol of Jewish tradition, often enjoyed during special occasions such as Sabbath and holidays. This unique bread differs from brioche, as it is made with oil, eggs, and honey instead of butter fat. The ingredients used in Challah bread hold a specific meaning, making each loaf not only delicious but also rich in cultural significance. Traditionally, Challah bread is shaped in various sizes and forms, each with its own symbolism. The braided Challah loaves, with three, four, or six strands, are the most common. The braids, resembling intertwined arms, symbolize love and unity. The three-strand braids represent truth, peace, and justice, embodying essential values within Jewish culture. Additionally, the twelve-strand Challah loaves pay homage to the miracle of the 12 loaves, which symbolize the 12 tribes of Israel. During Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, sweet Challah bread infused with honey or raisins is a popular choice. This variation of Challah is baked to signify sweetness, joy, and happiness for the upcoming year. The sweet undertones add a delightful flavor profile to the already decadent bread, making it a cherished treat during this festive time. Beyond its traditional use, Challah bread offers versatility in the kitchen. Its rich texture and slightly sweet taste make it an excellent choice for making burger buns. The Challah burger buns add a unique touch to your recipes, elevating the overall dining experience. Furthermore, Challah bread transforms into delectable French toast, soaking up the custard mixture to create a mouthwatering dish perfect for breakfast or brunch. Incorporating Challah bread into your culinary creations not only adds a touch of tradition but also brings a depth of flavor and meaning to your dishes.
