I am not big on Chocolate. I prefer salty candy. No clue why I even went into the München Chocolate store “Götterspeise” (end of Hans Sach strasse in Glockenbachviertel). Anyhow, I left the store with a bag filled with eatable gifts, for my friends. AND a package of sea salted caramel truffles. Don’t buy them. You will finish the package … Read More
on a Bavarian Diet
Once upon a time there was a Bavarian girl that lived in Ludwigstrasse in München. She was soon to be married to this Austrian guy and had planned to top us all by wearing a dress that the rest of us could only dream of (not the one in the picture of course! I have no clue who let that … Read More
Still searching
I have still not found the perfect Butter brezel. Hofphisterei just isn’t. Wie kann es so schwer sein? I like the butter to be foamy and not too cold . No fake butter please. And the bread should of course have that perfect crust. Anyone who knows? The Result of Malins Brezel-research so far: The Swiss are great with the … Read More
Good Morning Saturday!
I am really not up to date on the blog right now. My life has come in between. Or, what is life, right now it is work. But that is life too. I woke up early today and, after a proper kitchen make-over, I sat down and had a looong breakfast. Caponata, Raindeer and Eggs.
Danger Mouse Cake
So this is the result. My friend Svenja is convinced it will not taste good. She though we should pre-taste it before the bday party. I know it was a trick. I took a lot of pictures, I am pretty convinced that I will not bake a cake any time soon. In the end I think I just made a … Read More
I am not a cake kind of girl
I really like the idea behind cakes. Kind of like making a cocktail. Mixing the tastes. That is nice. First I wanted to make some kind of lemon-curd strawberry cake. With coconut frosting. But then I thought that was boring. So I decided to make a foresty cake. My Cake-moodboard had images with fairies from the Woods, Bears eating berries, … Read More
January Morning
No meal is more important. Finnish sour dough. Wild Schwein ham. Swiss Nut Cheese. And the tomatoes.
You are supposed to chill today
I woke up way too early for a new years day. I started the new year with a Lucia cats session. Saffron buns filled with a white chocolate cream that was colored black with charcoal. You find the recipe here. Energetic would be a good adjective for 2011. But I will eat them in bed now. ———————————– Lucia cats are … Read More
Leftovers
As a kid my main excitement about a Swedish Christmas dinner were Meatballs and Caviar. Things has not changed much. Nowadays Dads meatballs made by Moose are the hit. My pure Caviar eating with a spoon (lump fish) has developed into a love for Caviar cake. My family never liked heavy stuff like “Jansons” but instead we make different salads. … Read More
The last Bread Exchange before Christmas
It is a blend of black and white colored White Bread. It tastes like your classic white but looks more fancy. It is baked with my fav. Saxony flour, water and peruvian salt. I made 2 doughs that are folded together during the rise process. One of the doughs is Colored with charcoal. The other one is clean. Lets say … Read More
