Every week, we come together (virtually!) to challenge each other. We both cook the same recipe, then style and photograph it. But far apart from each other… Liz in Münster (Germany), Jewels in New York.
We do expect difficulties: and that’s exactly what tempts us! Will we find the same ingredients? How much does the dish cost in Germany? How much in the US? Will Liz find and use the same brown sugar as Jewels? Will we interpret the recipe the same way?
When two people follow the same recipe, will they actually end up eating the same dish?
Whatever the outcome is: We share it with you. And we want you to participate by giving us ideas for recipes. Tell us what to cook or bake next!
Challenge: Baked Sweet Potatoes
Challenge: Sweet Braided Bread
Challenge no1: Orange-Rice-Pudding with Raspberry Jam
What a fantastic idea! Just stumbled across your blog via Decor8 and am definitely bookmarking you for regular reading. I’m based in England and my sister in Canada and we often pass recipes to each other and compare our different out comes. Especially since we both just got ice cream makers! Great blog and beautiful pictures! Thank you!

Dear Claire! Thank you for the compliment on our blog! You can now subscribe to our blog, that’s new, so maybe you might want to do it!
Sounds like fun exchanging ice-cream-pictures between England and Canada. I also like your blog!
best, liz
Hi Liz & Jewels!
I love your blog. Makes me want to learn how to cook properly
I was searching for a nice recipe for my favourite breakfast dish – eggs royale.
How about a challenge for the best eggs benedict variation? I would love to see what ideas you come up with…
Hi! The Eggs Benedict are on our “To-Do-List”! Thank you for your input!
best, liz
Loved this idea. Some of my friends and I live on different continents and we always ask each other about food and what we are eating.
Will def follow you.
Thanks
I just discovered your blog via BYW and so glad I did. I love it! What a great idea, and your photography is beautiful. You have a new follower now
Thank you, Anna! Looked at your blog and also liked it a lot!
What a brilliant idea! Do you never wish to try each others food when you see the images?
I’m from he German-French border and currently living in Munich. It’s already very interesting to see how dishes I know transform with Westphalian ingredients – we in the south of Germany never use Pumpernickel for example.
ABsolutely brilliant-I love it. Great blog and your workshops look amazing. So nice to ‘meet’ you
thanks for stopping by, Caroline! Visited your blog and also like it a lot!

Totally intrigued by your

Photo with the empty bowl on turquise is one of my favourites
.(PS yA complete aside, but your site doesn’t allow my website url http://www.ecofabric.co.nz for some reason, just thought you should know
)
Fabulous idea. So much care and love in the photographs here! I got introduced to your work through decor 8 ‘food in motion.’ I looooove this challenge of preparing similar recipes and seeing how seosanal ingredients, regional differences, personal touch, weather, etc, affect the beauty you create. I’ll be back for more..
Congrats ladies!
Thanks, Marjory! We also like the idea of “Food in Motion” and it’s something new to us, too!
