Hey! I just got onto my computer and realized although I had been a good girl and written the post, I had never published it. So, here is what we had…
Choucrout Garnie – aka, garnished sauerkraut. This is adapted from a Martha Stewart recipe I saw. It’s from the Alsace region of France, which borders Germany. It looked good on the recipe, but I’m not sure exactly what I was expecting. It was exactly as I would have imagined French-German cuisine to be, if I had imagined it properly.
Roasted Red Potatoes – always a winner. potatoes, olive oil, salt, rosemary and some paprika.
Apple Ring Fritters! Also adapted from a Martha Stewart recipe. Apple fritters! Donut shape! Brilliant! If I made them again, I would peel the apples. Also, one batch was a good deal greasier than the others, I think I put them in the oil before it was fully hot enough. I used soymilk +vinegar for buttermilk, Ener-G egg replacer for eggs.
I forgot to pack the jars. I will deliver these at a time. Don’t worry. They were empty.
I thought this was going to be not pleasing to the children, but Eva declared it “one of the best dinnershare meals [I] have ever made”, and that was before she had the fried stuff. So, I guess sometimes the children, they do surprise you.
