Vanilla hollandaise with asparagus
April 25th, 2019 | main dishes
At home, we love the first asparagus in the season quite classically with smoked ham, Sauce Hollandaise and the first new potatoes. But then we love to have varieties. Since my dearest captain always likes to bring home the very best vanilla from his travels, there is nothing better than refining a hollandaise with it.
Vanilla and asparagus – this is a true dream team! A slight chili spicyness and the fresh note of the lemon balm give the special twist.
Asparagus with vanilla hollandaise is suitable as a light main course or as a side dish to veal schnitzel or fish, such as sole, monkfish or pike perch.

A feast for all senses!

The sauerkraut classic from Max and Moritz – who doesn’t know it? My recipe for sauerkraut rolls, however, doesn’t have much to do with the hearty, heavy and “typically German” side dish of knuckle and meat loaf. Homemade pasta dough wraps the vitamin-packed sauerkraut – and if you leave out the bacon, it’ll even be vegetarian!
