2025: German classics and International Yums

Merit Badge in Multicultural

For Roots and Wings

Basically, I'll still go where the stomach leads me (and probably protagonists of my novel series universe

), but I'll also – as the description indicates – throw in German (Alpine) Yums my (grand)parents used to cook when I was a kid.

Guten Hunger!

In response to "26. Pistachio Lime Cheese Cake"

Thank you, ⱲєbⱲitϚћ WDC's 25

You will probably laugh now, but for me, cooking / baking something complex and time-consuming is what, for other people, is meditation, or yoga.

Oh, I love everything pistachio, too! Plain, mealed/flowered in cake/cookies, ice cream, ...

That with the Italian cheese cake is interesting. I like the ricotta version actually better than the "classic" cream cheese (which I find too sweet).

Now you have to bake as you mustn't share.

In response to "26. Pistachio Lime Cheese Cake"

That looks good! It has some very intricate steps involved. YOU have lots of patience.

I do love pistachio, so that's an interesting crust.

I used to make many different types of Italian cheese cake, three types of cheese including Ricotta. I know the steps, all the prep, and it's time consuming for sure.

Needless to say, with kids grown and on their own, I don't really bake anymore.

In response to "25. "Fake" Sushi"

Don’worry, Nuts ☮

It just looks like sushi but is filled with more European foods. Therefore I called it fake.

But it‘s pretty yummy.

In response to "23. Cool Trio (Hot Summer Reliefs)"

You're welcome, ⱲєbⱲitϚћ WDC's 25

Fresh mint is the best. So glad you grew up with a garden where good things grew, and that your mother and grandma knew how to take advantage of it.

My late parents used to have a little place on the costa brava (I sold it, it was their dream) and I remember Moroccan mint growing in our flower pots / garden. It made the best (iced) tea.

Thank you, Charles 🐾

I'm always delighted when I teach "old" dogs (you're a tad older than Ash, eh?) new tricks.

In response to "23. Cool Trio (Hot Summer Reliefs)"

Thank you, for sharing all these wonderful recipes! YUM!!!

Yes, mint in lemonade is something my grandmother and mother added to theirs. We always had fresh mint growing in the garden in the summer. It does make it so much more refreshing!

Love it!

+ This triple recipe had its origin in a week that became one of the ghastliest summer weeks I've ever experienced – it was 40°C / 104°F on June30/July 1, 30°C / 86°F of them alone IN my fecking apartment (with no A/C). It was even topping the summer of 2003 when Europe was hit by its first "desert summer", and optimistic meteorologists still expected that to be an "once-in-a-century event". Well, nowadays – and after SIX... [Read more]
