This recipe is from http://www.chefkoch.de and it’s easy to memorize. What’s brilliant about this recipe is that you just mix up the following ingredients: 450g white flour 450g lukewarm water 2 packets of dried yeast 2 tsp salt 1 pinch of sugar Leave this very wet mixture to stand for about 5 hours at room … Continue reading
Another recipe from the German Thermomix recipe site. It’s nothing spectacular, just something you can get on the table quickly during the week. I veganised the recipe by using olive oil (but on hindsight I prefer butter) and soya cream. Oh, and I added a LOT more pepper to my plate and used more than … Continue reading
First day back at school today after the Easter holidays and I am in no mood to cook. This is a recipe from the German Thermomix recipe database submitted by a forum member, sa-anne. I used frozen chives (ready chopped) because our local supermarket only gets fresh deliveries from Tuesday to Saturday which means that … Continue reading
One of the weird things about blogging here is that you can see which search terms directed internet surfers to your blog. Today’s results were “Hungarian women” and “einkorn pizza dough from the bread machine.” Can’t help anyone with the Hungarian women, sorry, but maybe I can help you with a recipe for einkorn pizza … Continue reading
This recipe has been adapted from one I found on the following internet site http://theflyingapple.typepad.com/tdr_blog_deutsch/2012/01/an-apple-a-day.html#more. I have made the cake vegan by simply replacing the eggs with egg replacer and using soya milk instead of dairy milk. Ingredients: 1 kg apples (700g net) 1 organic lemon (juice and zest) 2 tsp egg replacer with 4 tbsp … Continue reading
I’m in a really grotty mood today. I’m coming down with a cold (again), the weather is grey and cold, and the household cleaning needs to be done. Two pullovers, my step-daughter’s fur lined uggs on my feet (two sizes too big) and I’m still freezing. It’s definitely time for soup. I found a recipe … Continue reading
This recipe is from http://www.chefkoch.de and was submitted by Schrat, a chef. He posts some wonderful recipes which always have rave reviews. Early this morning I posted this recipe for wild garlic pesto on my blog and my conscience kicked me all day for posting something that I hadn’t tried before publishing. Luckily, I found … Continue reading
I’m absolutely knackered. Put it down to “Frühjahrsmüdigkeit” (spring tiredness) or the week at school leading up to the two-week break at Easter, but I am constantly yawning. Of course, my students aren’t. They are enjoying the beginning of spring enormously. It’s like a hormonal uprising, all they seem to do is preen themselves and … Continue reading
Take a look at this internet site even if you can’t speak or read German: http://rolandrauter.wordpress.com/about/ Roland Rauter has published a vegan cookery book entitled “einfach Vegan” (simply vegan). AT LAST there is a vegan cookery book on the German book market that really makes me want to clank my pots and pans in the … Continue reading
This recipe originates from the BBC food magazine GoodFood Vegetarian Summer 2010 and is so easy to make. Vegans just need to omit the feta (or perhaps add a few capers). Ingredients: 500g new potatoes 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil zest and juice of one lemon 1 broccoli head, cut into florets 200 green … Continue reading
