So that was day one in #DeHaan
If I trust the weather report, always a bit iffy on the Northsea cost, this was it for non-rainy days with bits of clear sky.
Setting: typical Belgian Kust town. Holiday apartments up to the promenade overlooking the beach.
Further inland a surprisingly pleasant town. Might be the nicest we’ve been to.
Anyway, the kites made it to the beach, but because nice weather, not really enough wind. There’ll be other days.
Shopped for dinner and back to the „house“

In www.zahr.koeln/2022/12/1… I put the beef into the marinade.
Today took it out of the marinade and salted, peppered and browned the meat all around. The meat went with diced carrots, celeriac, leek, onion into a cast iron pot. Added Pumpernickel and Lebkuchen, 1 l of beef broth and enough of the marinade to mostly cover. Brought to a simmer. Now for 3 h in the oven at 120 C
The sauce will be done tomorrow.
So, Cristmas Lunch prep done. #Sauerbraten #recipe
2.5 kg of beef (leg) will marinate for a week in 1l of red wine, 0.5l of red wine vinegar, water so that the meat is covered.
spices: onions, coriander, pepper, allspice, paprika, juniper berries, mustard seeds, ginger, bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon, thyme, mace, carrot, leek, celeriac, parsley

Poured into an ice cube bag yesterday, now going from fridge to freezer. This is about half the fat from a goose dinner for eight.

Soften the chopped onion in the goose fat, add the sausage meat and break it up.
Add herbs, salt and spices.
When sausage meat is fried add the cabbage. When the cabbage starts to collapse add the stock and braise for 15 minutes.
Serve with substantial pasta.

#SundayDinner #recipe
Eg having at least one, ideally two good cups of coffee in the morning before leaving the house, or any house really.
Hereabouts (Rhineland) you put up your tree somewhere between the 4th Sunday of Advent and Cristmas Eve. The frequency distribution would be right shifted.
If you wanted festive cheer during the Advent, you had an Adventskranz with four candles. Each week you’d light one more. Had some Weihnachtsgebäck (Christmas cookies) and some songs.
As I see my timeline filling up with people setting up their trees, I start feeling old.
