Gratin D’endives Ardennaise

This recipe is supposedly from the Le Coq au Vin, Brussels, Belgium, according to an old newspaper clipping from the 1960’s. Modified to reflect modern tastes.

Ninoofse Vlaai

This is also a variation of Belgian “bread pudding” using more tasty ingredients. It is a dense type bread/pudding, and is always the competitor to the Aalster Vlaai which is another town really close to Ninove Belgium

Quick and Easy French Cognac and Creme Fraiche Ice Cream

This is a really easy ice cream to whip up and one that I make every Christmas to go with the Christmas pudding and with my annual Rumtopf or Brandied Cherries and Apricots. You can make it in an ice cream maker if you have one, but as it is a non-custard base ice cream, it works just as well without an ice cream maker. It lasts for one month in the freezer and is a great addition to the summer dining table too!

Celery Root and Potato Purée

From Ruth Van Waerebeek’s “Everybody Eats Well in Belgium Cookbook.” Ruth writes, “The strong peppery flavor of the celery root marries extremely well with the sweetness of the potato, giving the purée a depth of flavor that is haunting and almost addictive.” She’s right.
