The halibut, which is a flounder

June 27th, 2018 | main dishes

The name is misleading, because strictly speaking, the white halibut is a flounder, because he is right-eyed. His body is brown-black and white on the “blind side”, hence the name. It can become incredible four meters long. Ours was not that big…

White halibut is one of our favourite fish. It comes along fine-aromatic while low-fat and the preparation in the oven is very simple. A feast, which is superfast on the table. Promised.

White halibut on leek

(serves 4 to 6)

1,200 g white halibut
rinse, pat dry, spice with salt and pepper
½ bunch of flat leave parsley
use stems as a whole, put leaves aside
2 small leeks
cut into rings
4 spring onions, as a whole
place the parsley, leeks and onions on a baking sheet lined with baking paper
2-3 TS olive oil
70 ml white wine
drizzle on the vegetable
place the fish with the white skin down on the vegetables, close the baking paper, cook at 190° C for about 25 minutes
125 g soft butter
parsley leaves, chopped
1 garlic clove, pressed
stir into a garlic butter, spice with salt and pepper
after the end of the cooking time, remove the black skin from the halibut, if it does not dissolve easily, cook the fish for a few minutes longer
spread with half the garlic butter, serve
use the remaining garlic butter for the underside of the fish

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!
