Recipes for everyday and the special – Rezepte für jeden Tag und das Besondere
Deutsch In contrast to the older recipe, the sauce should be a real tomato sauce, really hot and with a lot of garlic. I managed to do this with the help of 1/2 Bhut jolokia and 5 large cloves of garlic. For 90% of all Europeans, the sauce would be clearly too hot. So I cooked an alternative tomato sauce […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch In Germany, pollack and some of its close relatives from the cod family were invented with the imaginative name Seelachs „sea salmon“, as the names pollack, charcoal burner or carbon mouth are probably not considered to be very sales-promoting. Salmon sounds a lot more noble. Apart from the fact that the Seelachs is also a fish, it has nothing […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch These are typical East Asian fast food dishes, which are often sold at street stalls. It is actually the same dish and can be prepared with cooked rice or soaked wheat noodles. According to my Indonesian cookbook by Sri Owen, Indonesians and Chinese are blaming each other for this recipe, so I suspect that Chinese immigrants to Indonesia have […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch Fritto misto is found not only in Italy but around the whole Mediterranean sea with various modifications. Of course, in Turkey, the near-East and North Africa no beer is used in the batter but I think with sparkling water you will achieve a similar effect. One theory says that the Portuguese took the recipe to Japan, where it, adapted […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch Stuffed squids belong on the menu around the Mediterranean. Usually minced meat is seasoned very heavily with garlic and herbs. On the European side there are oregano, thyme and/or rosemary, on the southern side cumin is a must. In addition to the minced meat stuffing, I have developed two other stuffings, one with chopped prawns and the other based […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch Blini are the ideal accompaniment to smoked salmon and caviar in Russian cuisine. They come in a wide variety of forms, such as American pancakes, German pancakes, crepes and Dutch poffertje. So far, I had preferred the shape of the smaller German pancake, which you can eat with a bite if necessary, because that actually belongs in the area […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch It has become such a fad that I no longer make something simple like fish cakes homemade, but buy it ready-made from local fish dealers or even from grocery chains like the Nordsee. I refuse the Covid-19 vaccination because I don’t know what’s in there, but do I eat this? How do I know what fish waste goes into […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch Mac & Cheese are an institution in the USA and, unlike Älplermaggrone and Käsespätzle, are considered a side dish. In the long run that would be too lavish for me, that’s pure hip gold. It doesn’t help much if I replace part of the milk with vegetable broth. Nonetheless, it is very tasty, which is certainly still on our […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch The skrei is a cod that is only fished with lines off the Norwegian Lofoten islands in winter. Due to its wandering through the ice-cold North Atlantic, it has a very strong, aromatic white meat. Since the nearest good fish trader where I live is more than 50 km away in Stuttgart, but I’m not allowed to go further […]
WeiterlesenDeutsch This salmon is classic because only salt, sugar and dill are used for the marinade. There are now countless recipes with citrus fruits and all kind of herbs. I doubt whether you can still taste the fish. Originally, „buried“ salmon was a method of preservation in the Scandinavian countries, where the seasoned and well-packaged fish was buried in the […]
