This weekend, I will be at redeenkaas.nl event in Beesd where we’ll pick up our rescued Parmigiano cheese. After this year’s devastating earthquake, some people got the idea to sell the damaged cheese cheap and give the small farmers some money that can be used to rebuild, instead of wasting an entire harvest.
Smoked eel experiment
I did a little experiment with smoked eel, an old traditional fish in the Netherlands and largely gone due to overfishing and environmental issues of smoking fish. Smoked eel on toast is a delicacy here and a treat to those of us old enough to remember it. I wanted a little variety so I decided to play around with three pieces of toast:
Riesling icewine and puff pastry
With the last little bottle of Magnotta icewine I had to try something different. puff pastry!
