In Italy, breakfast, colazione, is essentially a quick espresso and cornetto, a sweet-filled butter horn, taken from a neighbour's bar. After all, they are absolutely wonderful flavours and I really enjoyed them when I was there!
Back home in Finland, breakfast is more leisurely, on these dark mornings I sit by candlelight and enjoy Finnish berries and some lovely smooth porridge made with oats or soya! The easy part is that I make it the night before and in the morning I just add some berries or fruit! I put the Bialetti moka coffee maker on the stove and let the best smell of the morning, espresso coffee, wake up Rolf - with a smile on his face in the morning!
If you want to make more porridge to take to work, put in a glass jar.
