Simple vanilla sauce for shortbread cupcakes

In the most pastry shops you'll find small, beautiful cupcakes with cream and fruits. I have my favourite one with extremely delicious cupcakes. At home, I had short cake cups for cupcakes so I tried to copy. Here, you'll find extremely simple, fast and delicious vanilla sauce/cream for cupcakes. I bet you can use it also for different baking.

Sorrel soup with egg

Sorrel soup served with an egg reminds my childhood and summertime. As a kid you don't like it but later on you start to appreciate.  I remember picking the sorrel on fields near the forest, now I rather buy it on the local market. It's worth to remember that dish, reminds times when different sorts of food were not so accessible as today.

Cream of aspargus soup with chicken and cheese

Very graceful vegetable is asparagus. You can use it many exquisite dishes. Cream of asparagus soup is a big challenge. Major mistakes are often insipid taste, no decided flavors and bad consistency.  The additives decide about its flavor as their purpose is to extract delicate asparagus taste. This dish is very nourishing and believe me one bowl is enough for dinner.
