After a long day at work, you don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen to prepare dinner, right?! Getting something quick on the table does not mean you have to call a delivery service and give them your hard-earned money. Make this German Schupfnudeln & Cabbage Skillet instead. It’s quick and easy to do and really delicious. The ingredients are affordable and everything should be ready within 30 minutes. Sounds good, right? ;)
If you like cheesecakes, you certainly have tried a Basque Cheesecake, right? Super creamy, quick to prepare and simply marvelous! These cheesecakes are typically served »naked« – means without anything added. Well… this Basque Cheesecake with Apple Compote is the exception to that rule. Loads of apple compote on top. We love it here. It’s a great addition to an already fantastic cheesecake ;)
Apples are available all year round, which is why cakes with apples are also in season all year round. This delicious German Apple Cake (with Quark-Oil-Dough) is a cake we like to bake over and over again, because it’s such a quick and easy bake. And really tasty, of course. That’s actually always reason number one! ;P
We are baking Christmas cookies pretty much every year, and some of them we do over and over again. The classics, you could say. We have a bunch of Christmas cookies we do constantly with the same old recipe that has been used for decades. But we also got cookies that are based on classics, but kind of »reinterpreted« from time to time. These Biscoff Thumbprint Cookies aka. Engelsaugen, for example. They are based on a classic recipe for Engelsaugen with jam filling, but here the filing is delicious Biscoff spread. So good!
We prepare simple stews almost every week in autumn and winter. We usually have all the ingredients you need for a stew at home. Even for this simple Stew with Beans, Lentils & Knackwurst, we typically have everything that’s needed in the cupboards or fridge. It never hurts to keep a few dry beans and lentils at hand ;P
It’s time to do something with yeast again… or rather, let the yeast work for us! A classic recipe like this Chocolate Walnut Babka always looks quite complicated when you read the recipe, but it’s actually really easy. It just has a lot of steps and takes a lot of time. You have to be patient and let the yeast do the work, that’s all there is to it ;P
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
