Rosaspina Vintage A/W 2013 collection is an autumnal fairytale with the quintessential amount of retro charm! It clearly features some early 60's inspired frocks, pleated skirts, rich fabrics, a timeless classic cut, layers of warm hues and pretty collars. There is even this charismatic, whimsical cape, reminiscent of Little Red Riding Hood! These pieces are so classy and somewhat preppy, yet so juvenile in a positively sober fashion. Once again, well done, Ale!

Quince Soup with Greek Yogurt

350g chayote, cut into pieces (or zucchini, or cauliflower)

200 g of carrot, sliced

800 g water

Salt and pepper

Greek Yogurt

Method:

Chop the onion and garlic and saute them in olive oil until the onion is translucent.

Add the quince and sauté about 8 minutes. Place the chayote, carrots and water and let simmer until vegetables are tender. 

Season with salt and pepper and mash. Check the seasoning and serve garnished with yogurt.

Veredict:

This soup was love at first taste! It's creamy and slightly sweet, mostly due to the seductively fragrant quince.
It's a rustic soup with a seasonal, exotic twist. Even the kids who don't like soup will love this one, trust me.
