[:de]

Bevor die Spargelsaison bald vorbei ist muss ich Euch noch dieses tolle Rezept für einen Spargelsalat mit Spätzle und knusprigem Parmaschinken auf den Weg geben! Der ist einfach zu lecker und perfekt für warme Tage! Im Zweifelsfall könnte man diesen Salat sogar warm servieren ;).

Ich habe die Idee für dieses Rezept mal wieder aus Harry Eastwoods A Salad for All Seasons*, das einfach eine riesige Auswahl für hammerleckere Salate zu jeder Jahreszeit bietet! Das schöne ist, dass es nicht nur einfache Blattsalate sind, sondern sättigende abwechslungsreiche Gerichte. Ich weiß eigentlich nicht warum du dieses Buch nicht auch schon zu Hause hast ;)!

Ich habe meine Spätzle selbstgeschabt, da es eine spontane Dinneridee war diesen Salat zu essen und ich dachte „das geht doch ganz schnell“. Öhm naja, nicht wenn man die doppelte Menge macht… Wenn ihr eine Knöpflespresse habt (oder eine Spätzlespresse für kurze Spätzle) geht es schneller oder ihr kauft einfach gute Knöpfle aus dem Kühlregal. So ist es wirklich ein schnelles Essen ;). Auf keinen Fall getrocknete Spätzle verwenden!

Before asparagus season is over again I have to provide you with this wonderful recipe for an asparagus salad with spätzle and crispy parma ham! It’s too good and great for hot days! And if it is not a hot day you could also serve it warm ;).

I adapted this recipe again from Harry Eastwoods A Salad for All Seasons* which has an amazing range of delicious salads for every season! And they are not only leaf salads, but really filling and varying dishes. I do not know why you still haven’t have this book at home ;)!

I made the spätzle myself at home, because I was spontaneous for dinner and I thought „this is a quick one“. But not when making the doubled amount… If you have a spätzle or knöpfle press at home this works quicker than how I did it or you just buy some fresh ones. That way it is a really quick dish ;). Do not use dried spätzle!

Flammkuchen mit BergkäseTart Flambée

Flammkuchen mit Bergkäse

Flammkuchen ist im wahrsten Sinne gerade in aller Munde. Überall gibt es ihn und jeder will ihn haben. Als ich meinen gemacht habe, hörte ich auch gleich: „oh, das möchte ich jetzt auch“. Und dabei spricht auch nichts dagegen, denn das Ganze ist mehr als simpel.

Wahrscheinlich dürfte ich meinen Flammkuchen keinen Flammkuchen mehr nennen, da ich auch noch Käse drauf getan habe. Das ist mehr als untraditionell. Aber was will man gegen Käse sagen? Denn alles wird mit Käse eigentlich nur besser (Dessert u.U. ausgenommen). Ist wie mit Sahne. Oder einem Schnitzel. Und deswegen gibt’s bei mir Flammkuchen klassisch mit Käse. Außerdem bin ich gegen Rock the Kitchen ganz harmlos. Wobei das wird als nächstes ausprobiert. Die Kürbis-Nachkoch-Liste ist lang. Nicht zu sprechen von der Kürbis-Nachback-Liste! Kürbis-Desserts in allen Variationen. Schwelg.

Flammkuchen mit Bergkäse

Wichtig ist mir bei einem Flammkuchen deshalb nur eins. Schön dünn und knusprig mit flachem Belag. Mich erinnert das an den Mittelalter-Weihnachtsmarkt in Esslingen. Auch wenn es da gar keinen Flammkuchen, sondern andere herrlich leckere Brotfladen mit allerlei Belag gibt (es gibt auch Flammkuchen, aber den kauf ich nicht).

Nun aber ran an den Speck!

Tart Flambée

Tarte flambée is on everyone’s lips these days. I see it everywhere and everyone longs for it. As I baked mine, the reactions were: “ Oh, I want this, too. Now.“ And there’s nothing to be said against it, because it’s more than simple.

Probably my tarte flambée shouldn’t be called tarte flambée anymore, because I topped it additionally with cheese. That’s more than uncommon. And has nothing to do with the tradition of tarte flambée. But what’s to say against cheese? Usually food gets even better, when cheese is added (desserts excluded). It’s the same as with cream. Or a schnitzel. And for that, I made tarte flambée classic with cheese. The people from Rock the Kitchen were much more creative than me. But theirs will be made next! My pumpkin-cooking-list is long. My pumpkin-baking-list is even longer. Pumpkin desserts in many many variations. Swoon.

Tart Flambée

There is just one thing, that is important to me about tarte flambée. It has to be thin and crispy with a thin topping. It reminds me of the Middle Age Christmas market in Esslingen. They sell something better there than tarte flambée (although they also sell tarte flambée): flat breads fresh from the oven with delicious toppings.

Let’s start the action!

Happy new year, dear readers, followers, bloggers and food lovers!

Thank you for all the support and kind comments last year! I’m looking forward to more of that.

 Everybody’s sharing his new year resolutions over the net. And I thought, if I have some, too… food related ones of course. But to be honest, there aren’t a lot. I have achieved a lot of food related things last year. This year will be all about finishing my university education and there’s a huge focus on that. Of course that doesn’t mean neglecting my blog life. So no resolutions, just some thoughts I want to put down: Making homemade pasta again, baking something new from scratch, like apple strudel or trying something new, like oysters (maybe with a little champagne… I would have no objections to that). 

Quiche with Peas, Bacon & Mozzarella

 I hope you all had wonderful Christmas and a relaxing time like we had. Our Christmas dinner was extraordinary and one of the best we ever cooked and ate. We celebrated in Nuremberg with my family. We had trout terrine for starter, venison marinated in port and maple syrup (as well as other ingredients) with hokkaido and bread dumplings for the main course and a strawberry-mascarpone-ice cream cake for dessert. I really thought about making some pictures, but most of the food didn’t survived that long. It was a really great atmosphere, as we had white Christmas with a lot of snow (over 20 cm) and again a Christmas tree with real candles.

Quiche with Peas, Bacon & Mozzarella

 My recipe of that quiche is just right for now. Although with its ingredients it would also fit in summer, when fresh peas are available. But frozen ones are just good now. This quiche is rich, but flat and it’s inspired by flammkuchen, and the taste of Italy in late spring. That’s just what I had in mind, when I raid the freezer. Don’t expect any logic! But it’s really tasty, easy and although rich, it won’t sit heavily in your stomach.
