Time for a trip to Italy…

…because I’m almost out of porcini bullion. Good reason, no?
I’m not usually big on pre-packaged food, but one area where I tend to get lazy is broth. When I lived in Italy I fell in love with these porcini mushroom flavored bullion cubes which are available all over the place there (but, to the best […]

Vegetarian Afghan delight

On a whim, we visited a new Afghan restaurant in our neighborhood the other day. The decor was cozy and warm. The menu was limited, but we managed to settle on a vegetarian pumpkin appetizer and two vegetarian main courses, one spinach-based and the other eggplant-based. No alcohol was served, but there were several interesting […]

Bratwurst for vegetarians

I have been a vegetarian for longer than I’ve spoken German. I was a vegetarian long before I first set foot in Germany. So while I realize how beloved sausages of various types are here in this part of the world, they have rarely caught my interest.
But vegetarian sausages? Those I’ll try, gladly. I found […]
