Winter Traditions of Interest: the Sweet Smell of Gingerbread and a Glimpse of Evergreen Are Two Sure Signs That the Holiday Season Is Upon Us Serenity Snippets Serenity Assisted December 2015 L i v i n g Dilworth, MN Special points Winter Traditions of interest: The sweet smell of gingerbread and a glimpse of evergreen are two sure signs that the holiday season is upon us. While gingerbread can be delicious to eat, many will be using it as a construction material on Gingerbread House Day, December December 12. Birthdays Author DeeAnn Mandryk traces the origins of the gingerbread house to the early 1800s in Germany, after the Brothers Grimm published their collection of Activity fairy tales. One tale in particular—that of Hansel and Gretel lured into a house Calendar made of bread and sugar— inspired bakers of a traditional German ginger- bread, known as lebkuchen, to become architects on a miniature scale. Why Snapshot build houses out of gingerbread? They’ll last a long time. Photos Mandryk credits the first gingerbread people, however, to Queen Elizabeth I. The queen would honor important visitors with gingerbread people fashioned Movies of the in their likeness. It’s unknown whether the queen actually liked to eat these Month hard, spicy cookies. Many winter evergreens—such as holly, mistletoe, and even such conifers as fir, spruce, and pine—were revered in ancient times by Druids, Celts, and the Vikings. Botanist Larry Stritch explains how these cultures believed evergreens were sacred due to their ability to withstand snow and freezing cold. Decking the halls with boughs of holly provided both winter decoration and protection and good luck for the home. On December 19, which is Look for an Evergreen Day, bundle up and venture outside to find winter greenery. Or perhaps a better idea is to bring in a tree or some garland for decorat- ing your living space. Set up a chair nearby and enjoy the beauty of the season with a warm cup of mulled cider or hot cocoa.

Serenity Snippets Wellness Update Serenity Wellness had their “Back to School Marathon” from September, 25, 2015 through October 6, 2015. Ten Serenity’s residents signed up to participate in a walking challenge. The purpose of the marathon was to encourage the participating residents to consciously increase their daily walking and other physical activity. The goal of the marathon was for the residents to walk 26.2 miles, which is the standard length of a full marathon. The winner of the challenge would receive a dinner for two at a restaurant of their choice worth up to $50. Each resident was given a pedometer to wear throughout the day. They would put it on in the morning and take it off before they went to sleep. At the end of each day the resident with the assistant of a Serenity employee would write down how many steps they walked during the day on a calendar they received from the Wellness coordinators. The Wellness coordinators would then record each participating resi- dent’s steps for the previous day to keep a running total during the duration of the marathon. For this challenge the Wellness coordinators used a baseline of 2000 steps per mile. With this equation, the winner of the marathon would have to walk over 52,000 steps. The winner of the marathon was Randy Sams. He walked a total of 52,622 steps in 12 days. It was a very close race with three participants over 44,000 steps and seven of the ten participants over 25,000 steps in just 12 days! The residents enjoyed going for walks outside and enjoying the fresh air and nice weather. Serenity Wellness plans to coordinate future walking challenges with other residents as well as a staff marathon to promote physical activity throughout Serenity.

    Pfeffernusse Is A Cookie. A Variant Of German Lebkuchen, Or Gingerbread December 23rd is reserved for this German spice cookie. It is National Pfeffernusse Day. Very popular around the holidays, pfeffernusse are fluffy cookies made with ground nuts and spices and covered in powdered sugar. The exact origin in unknown however the Dutch believe that pfeffernusse (or pepernoten) are linked to the feast of Sinterklaas, which is celebrated on December 5 in the Netherlands and December 6 in Germany and Belgium. This holiday is when children receive gifts from St. Nicholas, who is partially the inspiration for the Santa Claus tradition. Pfeffernusse is a variant of German Lebkuchen, or gingerbread. Pferffernusse cookies differ from regular German gingerbread is that they are rolled into balls and then glazed with powdered sugar after baking. Pferffernusse literally means “pepper”. A traditional Pfeffernusse cookie will be too hard to eat without dipping in liquid for the first few days. The cookies do soften with age and more modern recipe adaptations have been made to make them soft from the start. If you were curious, the pronunciation is: [FEHF-fuhr-noos]. Though recipes differ, all contain cinnamon, cloves, mace, nutmeg, cardamom, and anise. Some variations include powdered sugar. Molasses and honey are used to sweeten the cookies. In Germany, the pfeffernüsse is more closely associated with Christmas. The biscuit has been part of European yuletide celebrations since the 1850s. ‘Pfeffernüsse’ are also known as ‘peppernødders’, ‘pfeffernusse’, ‘peppernuts’ and ‘pebernødder’. Pfeffernüsse are typically ginger-coloured, with a snowy white coating, and home made cookies are best left to develop their flavours and soften for a few days before being eaten.

  • Home for the Holidays the Sweet and Spicy Smell of Gingerbread Is a Clear Indicator That the Holiday Season Is in Full Swing
    Home for the Holidays The sweet and spicy smell of gingerbread is a clear indicator that the holiday season is in full swing. By the time Gingerbread House Day arrives on December 12, you may have already indulged in eating this seasonal treat. Gingerbread, made with ginger root, is believed to have originated in East Asia, where ginger was originally culti- vated. It is believed that ginger and gingerbread were introduced to Europe after the Crusades of the 11th centu- ry. Gingerbread was adopted most heartily in Germany, where monks perfected their heart-shaped lebkuchen cookies. These cookies were first made as unleavened honey cakes, made in the same fashion as communion wa- fers. With the introduction of ginger, German bakers transformed lebkuchen into their beloved gingerbread. In 1487, Emperor Friedrich III presented the 4,000 children of the city of Nuremberg with gingerbread cookies shaped to his likeness. The shape of gingerbread was not limited to hearts, faces, and people; miniature houses made of the cookie were also common. This is why a gingerbread house figured so prominently in the tale Hansel and Gretel, first published by German folklorists and brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in the 19th century. What better way for a witch to lure Management Team two children into her home than to build a home out of Germany’s favorite cookie? Through this tale, the Brothers Grimm spread the popularity of making gingerbread houses beyond Germany. Jamie Maul - Executive Director It may be surprising that one of the most enduring holiday traditions was popularized by the tale of a witch attempt- ing to eat two children by luring them into her gingerbread house.

    Gingersnaps Originated In 1206 In Lebkuchen, Germany Mmmmmm, hungry? Join National Gingersnap Day on July 1st by enjoying this sweet and savory treat. Recipes for gingersnap cookies typically call for molasses, cloves, ginger, cinnamon, and brown sugar. The combination of sweet and spicy has long been enjoyed for generations. The lower calories in gingersnaps make them a healthier alternative to other cookies, but they also have additional benefits. For example, ginger, cinnamon, and clove all include anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. They may also help fight heart disease. Cinnamon contributes to lower amounts of glucose in the bloodstream; ginger helps aid digestion, and cloves also help prevent oral diseases and headaches. Around the world, gingersnaps come in different shapes and sizes. In America, it’s much like a sugar cookie, but in Scandinavia, it’s more like a wafer. This tough little biscuit is often known as a ‘ginger nut’ in Australia, New Zealand and in the United Kingdom Ginger helps digest fatty foods and break down proteins. It can also treat motion sickness. It even reduces inflammation caused by arthritis. Ginger stimulates the circulation of blood. That’s how it helps reduce inflammation. It is also a natural decongestant and antihistamine. Gingersnaps were first baked commercially in 1862 The first published recipe for gingersnaps was in 1805 by Mrs. H.L. Webster. it is believed that gingersnap cookies originated in Germany during the early 13th century, and were first produced by medieval monks. It is also said that the previous version of these gingersnaps has been called Lebkuchen, which is the German version of gingerbread cookies for Christmas.

  • Desserts of the World: Germany Presented November 19, 2019, by Terri Fleming
    Desserts of the World: Germany Presented November 19, 2019, by Terri Fleming Lebkuchen are the Christmas cookie of Nuremberg, Germany. They date back to at least the 1300s, when the monks in Nuremberg first started baking them. In the middle ages, as merchants traveled inland from Venice and Genoa, Nuremberg was one of the central hubs of the continental spice trade. That gave the bakers of Nuremberg better access to exotic spices. Nuremberg was also surrounded by a dense forest was famous for its honeybees. Even with access to the ingredients, Lebkuchen were a luxury. Spices and citrus were rarities, making them incredibly expensive. They would have been saved for special occasions. Traditional Lebkuchen Makes about 35. Source: thedaringgourmet.com Ingredients Chocolate glaze: ¼ cup all-purpose flour 3 ounces quality dark or milk chocolate 4 ounces candied lemon peel 1 teaspoon coconut oil or oil of choice (do not use 4 ounces candied orange peel butter) 5 large eggs 1¼ cup packed brown sugar White sugar glaze: ¼ cup honey ½ cup granulated sugar 1 teaspoon quality pure vanilla extract ¼ cup water (or citrus water from candied peel recipe, 2 cups almond meal below) 2 cups hazelnut meal ½ teaspoon vanilla ¼ teaspoon salt 1 to 2 Tablespoons rum (or liqueur) (optional) ½ teaspoon baking powder ½ cup powdered sugar 3 teaspoons Lebkuchengewürz (recipe below) Backoblaten (wafers) (70mm available on Amazon) For decoration: Blanched whole almonds cut in half lengthwise (optional) Directions 1.

  • Elisenlebkuchen (Elizabeth's Lebkuchen)
    Elisenlebkuchen (Elizabeth’s Lebkuchen) Yield About 27 (3-inch) cookies Time About 1d hours of active time, plus drying time, overnight chilling time, cooling time, and time to allow the glaze to set Baking Notes Lebkuchen is all about spices. Do yourself and this recipe a favor and buy some new ones! We like the Spice House. The flavor of ground hazelnuts contributes significantly to the magic that is Elisenlebkuchen. But those who love hazelnuts also know they are a nuisance to peel. Yet we urge you not to purchase whole blanched hazelnuts. The more any nutmeat is processed, the more quickly its oils grow rancid. Blanched hazelnuts age out faster than some other nuts, in our opinion. Or maybe it is simply that hazelnuts make fewer appearances in American baking than almonds, and the ones in grocery stores are thus likely to be old and stale. But SunOrganic Farm in California sells exquisitely fresh whole hazelnuts—and we provide easy directions for blanching them. You will discover Kühle Back Oblaten to be the singular brand of these thin baking wafers available for purchase in the United States. Yet they can be fresh or they can be stale. Some we purchased from Amazon stuck together and had to be pried apart with the tip of a small sharp knife. We don’t know who that particular vendor was, but we’re thinking German Deli is probably a safer choice. It can be a real test of patience to find good candied fruit in the U.S. Who really wants to bake with the jumbled-up mixed fruits stained with dyed cherries? The best you’re going to do is www.nuts.com’s candied citron and glazed orange peel, which comes in strips and isn’t sticky or gooey.
