Dinners And Dreams
“The story of Dinners & Dreams is a living, breathing, constantly evolving one. Dinners & Dreams started back in 2009 when I began documenting family recipes in an effort to reconnect with my origins and preserve my heritage for posterity. It was a way for me to anchor myself and deal with homesickness. Gradually, it became a space where people gathered, talked about food, connected, were inspired and contributed inspiration of their own. I write about Moroccan food. It is my first love and no matter how often I wander off and how many temporary passions I go through, I always go back to the food that flows in my very veins. A few years ago, I started experimenting with gluten-free baking and fell in love with it. Many, but not all, of my recipes are gluten-free. I limit sugars in my recipes by using smaller amounts and healthier alternatives. I use in-season ingredients as much as possible and do my best to keep recipes simple, natural, seasonal and accessible to the home cook. “ - Nisrine Merzouki
