I picture her as a Babette* conjuring up the things nature in Greenland offers. most delicious dishes for her guests who reportedly always had a culinary experience. Much of her knowledge was fortunately passed on to her children and grandchildren. In Greenland we have fresh food of the highest quality available to us and we should make full use of it. Because we can buy almost Tupaarnaq Rosing Olsen anything today we tend to forget that we have so many opportuni­ ties with our own animals, birds, fish and plants. Supplemented with amongst other things imported vegetables we can use the country’s own products to make delicious food. The food in Greenland is very seasonal: lumpfish in the early spring, capelin as the summer progresses, different birds all year round (except summer when they breed) caribou and musk oxen in the fall, seal and whale all year round… so the trick is to be vigilant and collect for the rest of the year while there is time. This book contains both my mothers and other peoples reci­ pies. I have talked to people whom I knew to be knowledgeable and experimenting cooks and I’d like to thank them all for their *Babette from Babettes Feast by Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen), made into a movie by Gabriel Axel in 1987. 6 7 Caribou Game Pie Caribou meat is lean with a delicate game flavor. It can be pre­ pared in a lot of ways. When hunting season starts in the early fall nothing beats a soup based on ribs with short­grain rice, onions, potatoes and perhaps carrots. Or you can fry a steak, make a roast, a pot­roast, make stew, soup with different vegetables, minced steak, marinated meat, pate, liver pate etc. If the caribou has a lot of fat we cut it off and use it in coffee at special occasions. Here are some examples of how to prepare caribou. In most cases the re cipes are also suited for musk oxen or lamb.. 4 servings 5 frozen sheets of Phyllo dough or puff pastry Filling ¾ pound (350 g) meat (caribou, musk ox, or lamb) in cubes 1 onion 2­3 sliced carrots 1 green pepper sliced 4 tablespoons (50 g) butter 1 cup (2,5 dl) broth ½­1 cup (1­2 dl) cream Tupaarnat – Scottish Thyme (or regular thyme) Salt and pepper Egg for brushing 8 9 Melt the butter golden.

  • 12 CLASSIC FRENCH FOOD-WINE PAIRINGS Ansonia Wines FOOD PAIRINGS
    12 CLASSIC FRENCH FOOD-WINE PAIRINGS Ansonia Wines FOOD PAIRINGS 12 Classic French Food-Wine Pairings A perfect pairing can elevate both elements – here are a dozen favorites. 1. CHABLIS & OYSTERS Chablis is a satellite region of Burgundy, known for its pure chardonnay wines made with little or no oak. Classic Chablis is full of tension, minerality, and zest. The soils of Chablis are rich in calcium and fossils from an ancient sea, making the pairing with oysters natural and perfect. Most oyster dishes pair well with Chablis, but the simplest and finest match is raw. Ansonia Ideas: Gautheron , Collet | Oyster Ideas: Island Creek , Norumbega 2. WHITE BURGUNDY & VEAL White Burgundy is the highest expression of Chardonnay. Famous sources include Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, St. Aubin, and Corton-Charlemagne. As long as the wine retains some acidity, it should match beautifully with the subtle, delicate flavors of the veal. We’ve linked our favorite stew below. Ansonia Ideas: Boyer-Martenot , Morey , Ravaut , Gagnard , Thomas , Belland Veal Recipe: Marcella Hazan’s Veal Stew with Sage, White Wine, and Cream 3. MUSCADET & MUSSELS Muscadet is the refreshing, uncomplicated white wine made along the Loire River near the Atlantic Coast. With the ocean nearby, it’s a perfect match for shellfish, particularly oysters or mussels. Ansonia Ideas: Martin-Luneau Mussles Recipe: Julia Child’s Moules Marinières FOOD PAIRINGS - 02 - 4. SANCERRE & SOLE/FLOUNDER Sancerre is pure Sauvignon Blanc, and our favorites (including those from neighboring Pouilly- Fumé) are tank raised with no oak. Their combination of juicy grapefruit and mineral freshness matches beautifully with a fine fish in butter.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Delectable Daube In a New York Times article dated December 29, 1907, readers learned the secrets behind making Daube d’Italienne according to a recipe from the restaurant made famous by Madame Begué in New Orleans. The restaurant’s namesake had died the previous year and operations were taken over by her daughter and son-in-law, the Anouilles. “Lard a nice piece of beef,” the recipe stated, “about three inches thick with strips of fat ham and pieces of mashed garlic.” Louisiana colonial cooks routinely used hog lard and bear fat for their flour-based thickening agent (or roux). Then “brown the meat thoroughly on both sides,” adding both “carrots and onions, and enough water to cover the whole.” The suggested seasonings were “salt, pepper, cloves, bay leaf and parsley.” After putting this over the fire early “in the morning” and cooking “slowly without interruption at least eight hours” (and with a few other steps), one was to serve the meat that evening over macaroni along with “a good sprinkling of grated Italian cheese”. What actually is this daube (dəʊb, or dohb) New Orleanians rave about? It is one of the great winter meals in the Crescent City and a superb example of how French and Italian cuisines masterfully merge in this culinary capital. Most food dictionaries describe the dish as a classic French beef stew with vegetables and seasonings braised slowly in red wine for many hours. Every French region has its own unique version, sometimes prepared in a special, very deep, covered pottery casserole called a daubière.
