Strawberry Marshmallows

June 6th, 2019 | Süßes

In Hamburg they call marshmallows “Hamburg Speck”. Who doesn’t immediately think of the Hamburg Dom [one of the biggest, longest lasting and oldest outdoor fairs in the world] of love apples and Ferris wheel. This recipe for strawberry marshmallows, however, actually tastes even better than the memory can be.

No industrially produced marshmallow has this aroma of fresh strawberries – so fluffy and tender it melts on the tongue. Try it! Together with fresh forest berries, the marshmallows can be arranged for a delicious dessert plate.

Stuffed Roscoff onions

Onions – in my kitchen nothing works without them. But whoever believes that one tastes like the other has not yet tasted Roscoff onions. The “l’oignon rosé” from Brittany, or Roscoff at Finistère in northwestern Brittany, is so fine and aromatic in taste that it easily becomes the main actor on the plate, for example as a stuffed onion.
