Laugen

Even though I have been in Germany since the year 2000 I still have not become fully a friend of the traditional German kitchen.  Now Berlin in just Berlin and not really Germany.

Birchermüsli

I am sure my version is way more healthy then the original which contained both dried fruit and condensed milk… The first time I tried it was by the Lichtenstein Family Büchel. Die Mama Büchel made the best Birchermüsli for us in the morning during our … Read More
