Because I buy farm fresh eggs, I don’t usually worry about the eggs (I like to eat cookie dough too… and I’ve been known to run with scissors). If you aren’t certain about your eggs, or you don’t like the idea of raw eggs, please use the recipe from my friend Nadia at Spoonfuls of Germany. Glass Bottle Set with Swing Top Stoppers and Includes Bottle Brush , Funnel and Gold Glass Marker | Liter (6 Pack) ROUND Clear Glass Grolsch Flip Top Bottle With Stopper, for Beverages, Smoothies, Kefir, Beer, Soda, Juicing, Kombucha, Water, Milk, Oil and Vinegar

The original recipe calls for pouring Eierlikör over the whipped cream topped cake (that’s why you put the tufts of cream around the edges, it holds the liqueur in). Also, works as 1/2 cup chocolate chips) 40 gr Chocolate shavings (I just used what was left from a chocolate bar...) Chocolate eggs or Marzipan eggs for Decoration if desired Prepare (I usually just transfer them to another bowl, and use the stand mixing bowl for the next part) Put the Egg Yolks and Sugar into the mixing bowl, and beat at medium speed until they are well combined and look almost white. Lightly Sweetened Whipped Cream goes on the top and sides… smooth with a spatula (an offset spatula is perfect for this, a regular one will do) Sprinkle on the sides of the cake Make sure your fingers are cold… you can tip the cake a bit for a better angle

Like Germans in Germany, South Dakota Germans make time to sit with a coffee and a slice of Kuchen. Most use an enriched yeast dough, are filled with fruit and custard, then baked in a pie or cake pan. I made the dough without any changes, but then I cut the dough in half, cut the custard recipe in half, and just baked 3 Kuchen. After the first rise Push the dough 1 inch up the sides of the pan Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg Add Fruit Then sprinkle with crumbs Cover the fruit with Custard and more crumbs

This week I traveled to Bavaria by Zoom for a semi-private cooking lesson with the chef and owner of Xaver’s in Munich… step-by-step they led me through the process, and in the end I had a delicious plate loaded with powder sugar dusted Bavarian Kaiserschmarrn and an extraordinarily tasty Apfel Compote. In our house, we sometimes refer to Kaiserschmarrn as a sort of torn up pancake (in fact, once or twice I’ve set out to make Eierkuchen, goofed them up while flipping, torn them a bit, and called them Kaiserschmarrn… but that’s wrong).

My son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter have just been confirmed positive, we´ve had tests and are on tenterhooks waiting a phone call. I´m trying to put it out of my mind while sitting outside keeping an eye on the dogs we´re having to dog sit as my son is not allowed out, not even to walk the dogs. Oh that all this is behind us and we can finally start planning trips to some of the lovely places we have lined up to visit and showcase here for you. We only managed to get to two last year Villa Andalucia B&B and Finca Gordo B&B both in lovely corners of Andalucia.

Vanessa will cover budget-friendly transportation options to and around Italy, how to save money on Italy trip accommodations, how to find cheap eats in Italy and more. Many cities are just an inexpensive train ride away from each other, so flying into Milan and then taking the train to Venice, for example, may be much more cost-effective, and if you can fit that into your schedule, it’s a great way to see more of the country. Many people will tell you to buy a rail pass to save you the hassle of booking separate train tickets, but if you know where you’re going ahead of time, purchasing individual tickets is easy, and can actually save you a lot of money if you’re willing to do the cost comparison ahead of time. If you’re traveling with a family or want flexibility to travel beyond the train routes, renting a car doesn’t have to be expensive.

After leaving Zrnovo, the scenery along this section of the Korcula hiking trail is amazing, with vineyards, old ruins, rock walls, church towers in the distance, etc. After about a half-mile (800m) of hiking, watch for a small green Kocje sign in the grass, pointing to a trail which veers off to the right. We didn’t find it easy to find our way out of the Kocje valley, but the hiking trail continues to the north, so keep looking, it’s there. This was a great Korcula hiking trail for kids and it kept them interested the whole way, which in turn kept us happy the whole way!
