Coffee wells & oil



Don't throw away the coffee wells after making your coffee!

Do you know coffee is a primary product? It is consumed worldwide. On the other side, it can cause pollution because of the release of the disposable cups and of coffee wells in the environment. Coffee wells thrown in the rubbish bin go to the organic waste which is taken to the city dump causing problems of pollution.

In our previous video we made compost with coffee wells (Homemade compost)
                                                         
Today, we'll help you to repair your wood furniture, only using oil & coffee wells. 
 
I was inspired by my aunty's coffee rostery (coffee factory) in Italy. It's CaffĂ© mo.ca of Moka Express. so, we just wants to give to all the coffee lovers a way to recycle their coffee wells in a daily use.



The coffee wells darken the wood and the oil illuminate it. 

Watch our video to know how to do it. 


we hope you enjoy your furniture

Octopus Vinaigrette salad

Octopus salad is easy to make, even for children. But, if you're too young, be careful with the knife when you're cutting vegetables.


You'll need:
  • cooked octopus tentacles (200 g)
  • 1 lemon
  • vinegar (we like red wine vinegar)
  • 1/2 onion
  • 2 carrots
  • 1/2 paprika pepper
  • 1/2 green pepper
  • 1/2 yellow pepper
  • 1 cucumber
  • olives
  • olive oil
  • parsley
  • black pepper
  • salt
How we make it? This is our method:




  • We usually buy cooked octopus tentacles so we have the just quantity and it is easier to prepare becuse it is cooked at the right point. If we buy freezed octopus we cook it (withouth defrosting before) a couple of minutes in the microwave with some water.
  • Dice the octopus and all the vegetables.
  • Mix them alltogether.
  • Add lemon, parsley, salt, black pepper, olive oil and vinegar as you like.
  • Store in the fridge until you have to serve it.
We hope you enjoy the salad and that you follow our blog and videos.

Hummus

                                                   Watch our video, please follow us. ♥️

Today we're doing our second cooking session. We´ll cook hummus and it will be delicious!!! 

The word Hummus comes from the Middle Orient and it really means ... chickpea in Arabic. The recepie we are going to show in the video is typical of the Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine cuisine.

You can pick it up with pita bread or with carrots or snacks of bread as we usually do. 







The ingredients for hummus are:
  • tahini
  • lemon juice
  • garlic
  • chickpeas
We like to add some black pepper and sweet paprika.


The ingredients of tahini are:
  • sesame
  • liquid (water or oil)
  • salt.
We usually use olive oil because it is healtier. 

The hummus should have a proper texture, neither too slack nor too stiff.
We hope that you enjoy it.
