Saburani is an extraordinary and highly distinctive pie of Caucasian cuisine, built from many paper-thin pre-boiled layers of dough interleaved with a fragrant cheese mix. This dish genuinely impresses with its unusual technique and the striking appearance of its cross-section: each layer comes out separate, almost like a sheet of paper, and the aromatic cheese filling turns the pie into a real celebration of flavor. Make a simple water-and-salt dough, divide into 8-10 equal balls, roll each one paper-thin and briefly boil each sheet in salted water. Layer them in a greased baking dish, sandwiching a grated mix of cheeses (brynza, mozzarella, suluguni) with herbs between the layers. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 25-30 minutes until golden. Proportions for a 26 cm pan inside.

Apple charlotte without baking powder or soda is a simple, classic and remarkably tender homemade bake in which the lift and airiness of the batter come exclusively from properly whipped eggs and sugar — without any leavening agents at all. It's the ideal recipe for anyone who wants the most natural bake possible from the simplest, time-tested ingredients. The main secrets of success are using eggs at room temperature, beating them thoroughly with a mixer into a thick fluffy mass and gently folding in the flour with a spatula. Beat eggs with sugar until tripled in volume and gently fold in sifted flour. Slice the apples into wedges. Layer the apples in the bottom of a greased pan, pour over the batter and bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 35-40 minutes until golden. Proportions for a 22 cm pan inside.

The Italian "12 Spoons" cake is a remarkably simple and reliable homemade bake that needs neither kitchen scales nor measuring cups — all the main ingredients are measured with ordinary level tablespoons, 12 spoons of each. It's the perfect recipe for anyone just starting to bake, or for those days when you want a cake quickly and without any fuss. The result is airy, tender and slightly porous, with a soft creamy-vanilla flavor. Mix 12 tablespoons each of flour, sugar, milk and vegetable oil, add 4 eggs and a sachet of baking powder, plus optional vanilla and lemon zest. Bake in a pan at 180°C (350°F) for about 35-40 minutes. Wonderful with fruit or berries. Proportions for a 24 cm pan inside.

Kuchen is the classic German open fruit pie traditionally served with Sunday afternoon coffee. There are many varieties — with apples, plums, pears, berries or cottage cheese — but the apple version is one of the most popular and beloved. The base is made from a tender shortcrust or yeasted dough that's both crisp and soft, topped with fresh fruit and finished with a buttery streusel crumble made of flour, butter and sugar that bakes into a sweet caramelized topping. Roll out the dough, press into the pan, top with apple slices, scatter with streusel and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 35-40 minutes. Authentic German proportions for a 24 cm pan inside.
