Three different types of chocolate ensure a stunning melt in this recipe. White chocolate, bitter and milk chocolate combine here to create an incredibly juicy chocolate dream.

Chocolate brownies

If you look at the list of ingredients for these chocolate brownies, it quickly becomes clear: Diet is different… But for sure, my blog is not a diet blog, but a pure pleasure blog 😉 And these brownies fit in any case. They are simply delicious – and not just with coffee. Together with a scoop of ice cream, they even look good as a dessert.

If you double the recipe, the dough is enough for a normal, deep baking sheet. The brownies are ideal for freezing and can also thaw again at lightning speed. So you always have a small supply at hand.

Tonka bean mousse with blood orange ragout

But if he were there, I would spoil him with this dessert: It comes along in three layers: a blood orange ragout, seasoned with grenadine, a quark yoghurt mousse flavored with tonka beans, and topped with deep-fried wonton strips and salted caramel. A dessert that sparkles in your mouth, and certainly enchants your sweetheart!

The Palatinate: pure pleasure – Part 2

The Palatinate – a region of superlatives! The largest wine barrel in the world, the largest wine festival in the world, the oldest wine route, the oldest wine bottle and last but not least about 100 million vines and fantastic wine… Not to mention Saumagen [stuffed pig’s stomach], liver dumplings and the beautiful landscape…

Fish market? No, homie, „FrischeParadies“ [paradise of freshness]!

Thirty years ago you could buy super fresh fish directly at the fish market in Hamburg. Today, only a handful of cutters are pinning at the pontoon of the fish auction hall. So where do the Hamburg people buy fish today, especially if they don‘t want to get up Sunday morning at 4 o’clock? I swear on FrischeParadies. Nowhere else in Hamburg you’ll find such a well-stocked and wonderfully presented fish display as in FrischeParadies. And where do you find this paradise for foodies?
