In 2013 Marta and Matthias met at ballroom dancing classes and discovered that they both have a bigger hobby than dancing – food. One year later they created a cooking blog where they have been publishing their favourite traditional recipes. Marta has learned cooking from her grandma and mom. Food was an essential part of her family’s life, and the traditional dishes bring a lot of memories.
Matthias has also been enjoying his time in the kitchen with his grandma since childhood. In high school, he had chosen cooking as a subject, where he learnt the basics. By the age of 16, he was already preparing festive meals for his family on holidays, and this tradition has been continued! It is undoubtedly that eating is Marta and Matthias’ biggest hobby, which became a profession in 2018.

This week, apart from being sick, I was testing how to use sous vide stick (precision cooker) to cook Duck Breast. In our family, Matthias usually fries steaks, so that was a bit of new land for me. What’s your sous vide status? 😄
