Nutritional values

Wheat semolina provides complex carbohydrates to keep you satiated for a long time. Apples provide vitamins and trace elements, while walnuts provide important omega-3 fatty acids that are good for the heart and circulation.

Don't throw the scraped vanilla pod away. Instead put it into your sugar to infuse it with a delicate vanilla flavor.
