Oven baked rice with apples
Today I am going to present you an old recipe from our mothers and grandmothers. It does not look much like modern recipes, but it brings us back to those times when women tried to create something delicious from simple products they had in the cupboard and the cellars. Here is one of them. It was very interesting for me to find out and prepare this recipe. Personally, I would mix all the products without making them in layers. It is easier and would give better flavor to the rice. Or at least I think so;) The recipe is from Penka Mihova’s book “When the Soul Eats.” Enjoy! 🙂

Roasted pumpkin (bark up)
The recipe for roasted pumpkin is an integral part of the Bulgarian cuisine, the Bulgarian spirit and lifestyle, as well as the Bulgarian literature (remember Dushko Dobrodushkov by Elin Pelin, the archivist at the district government, who brings for signature papers to the house of the Governor…) It’s very easy to prepare, but so delicious! And now is the pumpkin season. We at home, following the strict instructions of my mom, cook it with the bark up. Thus the pumpkin is roasted very well, does not burn and does not get dry, but very soft, like a cream, the sugar syrup from the bottom of the baking pan is soaked…
