My favourite cake in spring, it combines the fresh taste of sour rhubarb with sweet meringue and there is not too much dough, just enough to carry the toppings.
Picking up rhubarb at the Farmers Market.
I finally will have the recipe on this site, and, should I lose the little square piece of paper with the recipe written on both sides by my mother in 1976, I can come here to find it again!
Here are the pictures I took of both sides of the handwritten recipe. Note that the baking powder was forgotten on the list of ingredients.
A Turkish - German casserole featuring layers of cabbage and the kick of cayenne
Traditional southern German recipe for home made egg noodles. Perfect side dish for any meat dish with good sauce or gravy, and excellent as pan fried leftovers.
Traditionally eaten with roast, this is a simple vegetable dish, and the taste relies mainly on the quality of the cabbage.
A German recipe for steamed dough. A bit like dumplings, a bit like buns, a bit like doughnuts. A salty crust on the bottom, and traditionally served with a wine or vanilla cream sauce.
I had a huge pile of onions starting to go bad, and, looking for a recipe requiring lots of onions, I found this "Zwiebelkuchen", available everywhere in South Germany and in the Southwest of France where wine is made. It is best eaten with new wine, that is still sweet, but also a bit sour.
DaveO was asking about Kohlrabi recipes. My mom makes something similar to this with a sort of creamy sauce.
Literally translated, this means "Cold Dog" in German. It's layers of fat, chocolate, and biscuits, with a few variations with nuts and such. There are another 28 recipes on the site I found this one on. Turns out Flickr has lots of pictures of Kalter Hund, too (picture by majorbonnet, CC Attr-NC-SA)
I'm still gathering recipes for Christmas. My dad tells of a Polish version that doesn't use flour, but mixes have cooked and have grated raw potatoes.
