Goat cheese in panko breading with winter salad
January 25th, 2019 | main dishes
This dish tastes as good as it looks! Lamb’s lettuce, endive salad and grapes are the basis for our winter salad. The goat soft cheese is wrapped in a crispy coating of macadamia nuts and the Asian breadcrumbs Panko. Simply delicious!
If you do not like goat cheese, you can of course also use any other soft cheese, Camembert or Brie for this recipe. You can buy Panko breadcrumbs in the Asian food section of most supermarkets.
Basically, I use home-made breadcrumbs by grating every little piece of bread. With and without grains and of course with the bread crust. This results in a rather dark breadcrumbs coating. The Panko flour comes from the Japanese cuisine. It is made from white bread without crust and is very light and fine. The breadcrumbs coating therefore is much lighter and airier. It’s particularly suitable for fish and seafood, vegetables – and of course our goat cheese.

And this is how the wife of the captain does it
I mix my salad dressings in empty jam jars. Fill in all ingredients, screw cap on top, shake, done. Leftovers can be stored conveniently in the refrigerator. In this way you can prepare your dressing for two or three days ahead. Then it’s even faster to have a crisp-fresh salad on the table.

Pescado a la Veracruzana – Mexican tuna
In times when we cannot travel due to the corona pandemic, why not bring a holiday feeling on our plate at home! Last weekend we were on a short culinary trip in Mexico, more precisely in Veracruz on the east coast of Mexico. A wonderful tuna fish with a fiery, colorful sauce awaited us and it was as if we were listening to the sounds of marimba and mariachi in the humid, warm evening air… Viva México!

The recipe for this omelette with brown shrimp and pointed cabbage I found in the culinary magazine “Effilee”. There, Stevan Paul writes the section “Schneller Teller [fast plate]”. However, in this case the preparation only is quick if you use already shelled brown shrimps. But: if you grew up on the North Sea coast, of course you peel them yourself…

Most people like to bring some holiday souvenir back home. Our case is usually full with sausage and cheese from local markets and sometimes we bring also a bottle of wine. On Tenerife, we spontaneously packed a bottle of gin and two glasses as souvenirs. Macaronesian Gin. To be honest, I didn’t even know exactly then, what is meant by ‘Macaronesian’.
