Deep-fried eggs on spinach

Deep-fried eggs on spinach

April 22nd, 2019 | main dishes

For those who still did not have enough eggs on this sunny Easter weekend… Crispy crumbed with almonds and inside as soft as butter. With fresh spinach leaves and cress. The good, old classic “spinach with egg” tastes so good – and without “blubb”.

Advertising made us believe for years, spinach must come from the freezer and have the certain (cream) “Blubb”. Nothing is right. Leaf spinach, fresh and without cream, is both a visual and a tasty treat, together with the deep-fried crumbed eggs – simply good!

Campari Torte August 28th, 2018 |

Campari orange in white pantsuit

Many years ago, I once met an elderly, chic lady in a white pantsuit on the pier of Usedom [island at the Baltic Sea]. She was sitting there enjoying a Campari orange. As she left, she stopped by our table, said what great kids we had, and left. That was a magical moment. Since then, I have dreamed of living in the house by the sea, drinking my Campari orange in my white pantsuit in the early evening. I’m still working on it. And until then there is the drink as a cake. My Campari cake is the cracker in the summer!

Venice going nuts with Vogalonga

Venice is almost like coming home. I was here already so often to go aboard with my dearest captain.
