Dushbarah (Düşbərə)
This is a traditional dish from the cuisine of Azerbaijan, a small country on the shores of the Caspian Sea, south of the mighty Caucasus Mountains. My family is from Azerbaijan so I was raised on my grandmothers’ and mom’s recipes of the traditional Azeri dishes. This one is my personal favourite, as prepared by…

Mousse au chocolat (in French)
Cette recette classique française provient du cahier de recettes de ma mamie, qu’elle a commencé à tenir sur les bancs de l’école en 1937, où on enseignait encore aux filles à cuisiner et à tenir une maison.
