In the late 1980 years an Asian shop opened in Hoechst, a district in Frankfurt/Germany. We had many Asian shops in our close range, but this new one had the dimensions of a supermarket and we could buy nutritions from every part in eastern Asia. Every part? Shure, they had some nutritions from Indonesia, my favorite Asian kitchen, but Terasi/Trassi??? Oh, no, that stinks so was the answer of the Thai owners of the shop ? .

Spring rolls are known throughout East Asia with countless fillings. I first encountered them as loempia (pronounced Lumpia) in an Indonesian restaurant in the Netherlands. Therefore, my filling has a distinctly Indonesian flavor.
Of course, you could buy them as convenience food, and they don't taste bad. Unfortunately, most of these products contain the infamous E621, monosodium glutamate. This is found in many natural foods like...

These are typical East Asian fast food dishes, which are often sold at street stalls. It is actually the same dish and can be prepared with cooked rice or soaked wheat noodles. According to my Indonesian cookbook by Sri Owen, Indonesians and Chinese are blaming each other for this recipe, so I suspect that Chinese immigrants to Indonesia have taken their recipe to Indonesia and developed it there using typical Indonesian...

It goes again to the autumn and autumn is known as stew time. What we had long ago, was a chicken soup or stew.
As described in the previous post, we have a lot of chicken stock and, inevitably, chicken meat. Half of a huge greens was overcooked to the taste of the broth, the other half came cut small in the chicken stew. In contrast to the original recipe, the chicken was about 3 kg and we had the half. Thus, there were 4 servings...

Swedish meatballs seem to be a kind of staple food for Swedes; supermarket shelves in Sweden are full of pre-packaged meatballs. You can also buy them at any IKEA around the world.
They're usually made from a mixture of ground beef and pork (1:1), less often from pure ground beef. I'm currently experimenting with different types of meat to avoid using pork for my sweetheart. So it was perfect timing that she brought home some ground...

Almost all over the world this is known as either ragù bolognese or sauce bolognese, preferably with spaghetti. The Bologna Chamber of Commerce has a fixed recipe for this, but hardly anyone follows it. I've seen the most adventurous constructions with mixed minced meat, minced poultry, vegetarian with lentils and whatever else I know. Minced meat is fried, mixed with tomatoes and boiled for 30 minutes. This is then called sauce...

I think chicken in a wine sauce is available in all European countries where wine is grown. Let's start in Germany with the Woihinkelsche. This is traditionally cooked either in Pinot Noir or Riesling. In France there is also the classic variant in Burgundy or in Alsace with Riesling. In Italy there are tons of recipes based on white and red wine, such as the pollo in pottacchio or alla cacciatora, mostly in a tomato wine sauce. In...

A chicken is round, a grill is flat. Those are the conditions.
That's why professional chicken roasters grill them on rotisserie skewers. What do you do if you don't have such a device? You compare one to the other. But it would be pretty stupid to bend the grill round. So we flatten the chicken. To do this, a cut is made along the bone on the belly side and viola, we can unfold the chicken. One more firm press in the center and our...

On Thursday (Ascension) we had a really nice nostalgia BBQ. It was Pentecost Monday, I was only a week together with my sweetheart and I spent a wonderful afternoon and evening with three lovely ladies. I had specifically developed recipes that differ from the usual steaks and sausages. There were skewers with shrimps and then Viktoria sea perch, which I for ecological reasons no longer use, instead with coalfish, plus a red garlic...

To quickly make chicken soup, you can sometimes resort to chicken parts in a pinch. Unfortunately, the broth isn't as rich as one made from a real chicken. In this case, I used a 1 kg package of chicken drumsticks. Most of the vegetables (leek, celeriac, carrot, parsley root) were still slumbering in our refrigerator vegetable drawer. The broth was made from the cleanly trimmed skins and the meat.
The meat was removed from the bones...
