About Annika

The spawn and official reasoning behind the Culinate website.

She puts up with the daily hustle and bustle within the busy Culinate official office, and has chores consisting of feeding the dog, unloading the dishwasher, and cleaning her room. She has wonderful parents who cook her delicious food. She doesn’t eat any mammals, even though the rest of her family do, so when people ask, she just says she’s a “vegetarian”, because it’s easier to explain. Lives creatively.

Obsessed

Officially obsessed with The Cake Bible. love everything! Just baked page 54 -- perfect american buttercake. LOVES!

Can’t wait to partake! And I’m sure the rumor that the butter exploded in the microwave when you were melting it was greatly exaggerated, right? Right?

Cake Bible: Just baked our way through page 201 - Triple Chocolate Cake (with our own take on the ganache... we experimented adding hazelnuts and strawberries) + buttercream frosting.

five small meals a day?

Earlier this summer, while I was traveling Northern India, I was surprised at the eating habits. It seemed that rather than having a deliberate breakfast-lunch-dinner schedule, there was an early breakfast, a morning snack, a light lunch, an afternoon tea, and a late dinner. The first few weeks I was there, it was hard for me to adjust from my usual 3 hearty meals, but I ended up loving eating more spread out... it gives you more time to enjoy & digest, and I’m thinking about starting up a regular five meal schedule.

A few of my favorite dishes from the trip include:
Dal Makhani
Tandoori Chicken
Chloe bhature
Uttapam
Veg Kolhapuri
