Tuna tartare with wasabi mayonnaise
December 15th, 2018 | starter
A first class appetizer: finest tuna, marinated Asian style, on crisp cucumber – rounded off with wasabi mayonnaise, sesame and cress. Perfect for a finger food buffet or as a small appetizer.
The tuna bites are made super-fast and are ideal as a prelude to a multi-course menu, because they are light and wholesome. The tuna and mayonnaise can be prepared well two or three hours before the guests arrive, then you just have to build the “little towers”…

WINE RECOMMENDATION
Of course, the tuna tartare goes well with prosecco. But try a well-cooled rosé wine. Our recommendation: the two young winemakers Fritz & Ulli’s 2016 Mango Tree from the Palatinate. A detailed blog post about the special wines of the two you will find soon on my blog.

For a wild herb salad a “snappy” enrichment.

Strawberries, yoghurt, basil – the perfect cake
At our home, our daughter is the backing-expert. I also bake well, but I prefer the hearty things. For our daughter baking means to relax, to come down, you could almost say: “to chill”. At the age of 14, she baked this fantastic strawberry yoghurt cream cake with basil for her brother’s birthday. Respect!
