Game Consommé with deer dumplings
December 24th, 2018 | starter
A clear game soup with deer meat balls is a festive affair. Just right as a starter for Christmas! The broth is easy to prepare and can be cooked well before the festive season. Also, the deer dumplings can be prepared in advance and frozen. So to say, an appetizer that comes from the cold… for a relaxed Christmas for the cook.
There’s nothing better than a home-cooked broth, whether chicken, beef, fish, vegetables or, as today, game. A good broth is a basis to cook ragouts and gravy or soups. It is generally prepared in the same way, no matter on which basis you cook it: Bones, meat and vegetables are roasted in the oven, then poured with liquid, cooked for a very long time and strained. Voilà!

Spaghetti with seafood a la Carmen
Spaghetti frutti di mare, Espagueti con Mariscos, Spaghetti mit Meeresfrüchten, Spaghetti aux Fruits de Mer – fine sounding names for a wonderful dish. We liked it especially in the restaurant “Enriclai” in St. Cruz de La Palma, and we asked Doña Carmen for the recipe.

Waiting for spring. It’s cold again and stormy. Despite calendar start of spring. That makes you want a hot soup. And before we can finally harvest the first wild garlic, whose tips I have already discovered in the garden, there is again, probably one last time for this season, black salsify. A creamy salsify soup with trumpet royale mushrooms, garnished with lemon peel and our best olive oil.
