Hamburg Brown Biscuits for 3rd Advent
December 12th, 2017 | bread & pastries
The advent dream of my childhood: the original Hamburg Brown Biscuits. In my grandma’s recipe book in grain and lot, today it is more feasible in grams and teaspoons – my favourite pastries for Christmas! The photo is some years old. Then, our children stamped names on the cookies – a nice idea as a small Christmas gift.

THAT'S HOW THE WIFE OF THE CAPTAIN DOES IT
My favourite gingerbread spice is „Klingenberger Lebkuchengewürz“ manufactured by „Altes Gewürzamt“ in Klingenberg/Germany. I am definitely fond of their spices. The gingerbread spice is well-balanced and besides Christmas pastries I use it to season meat dishes with it as for example a wild boar goulash or roast beef – delicous!

Really wild wild herbs salad
What they sell on the domestic German markets as “wild asparagus” botanically is no asparagus. Of course wild asparagus exists, and I know it from my time in northern Spain, where we collected the wild asparagus in nature. Here in Germany, however, the flower sprouts of the Pyrenean Star of Bethlehem are offered under this term, mostly grown in France. And it is really delicious. Raw or steamed, it tastes very intense. For a wild herb salad a “snappy” enrichment.

The Geldermann private sparkling wine cellar shows with its extraordinary art project, the Édition Musique, that this is very possible. “Sparkling Keys” is a tribute to a special cuvée, composed and arranged by two internationally acclaimed artists, pianist Joseph Moog and sound designer Kris Menace. Excellent finger food by Cornelia Poletto uniquely rounds off the evening in the Hamburg Jazz Hall.
