Elbow Grease

Voici le projet Elbow Grease de la jeune designer Prianka Sisodiya : elle a créé une série d’ustensiles de cuisine comme ce fouet qui se démonte et se range à plat, un fouet de doigt pour battre le beurre, et un saladier permettant d’être incliné pendant le mélange d’ingrédients. Clever!

Watermelon and basil popsicles

Since I got a juicer, I’ve been testing some fruits, vegetables and herbs juices everyday…You can also make these delicious and refreshing popsicles with a mixer. It is easy as pie.

The Ingredients (for 6 popsicles)

– I used a little bit less than a quarter of a small watermelon

– 1/2 lemon

– a bunch of fresh basil

The Recipe

Juice or mix the watermelon with basil.
Add the lemon juice and shake vigorously. You can add a spoonful of sugar if you want to…although it is flavorful enough.
Pour it into your popsicles moulds, and place it in your freezer!
