It’s time for warm food, isn’t it. A nice bowl of autumn balancing soup is just what you need when the weather get’s colder and wet. Since a week or so we have two volunteers helping us out at our project in Portugal. That’s really awesome and came exactly at the right time. I am …

Ladies and gentlemen, please meet the main player of this recipe, the YACON! This rhizome kind of root originates from Peru, but all eco friendly people in the house…don’t worry! I recently got it at my Belgian organic farmer’s shop, so I guess it can be easily grown everywhere in the world. It has high …
