Austrian Hash

Known as gröstl, this is a real hunger-stopper from the Austrian Tyrol and is a wonderful last-minute meal. From BBC Good Food Magazine for ZWT6.

Vanillesosse (Vanilla Sauce)

Traditionally served with Dampfnudln or Steamed Sweet Dumplings along side Kirschsosse. Works over any kind of doughy dessert. Recipe from my grandmother’s recipe box.

Vanille Kipferln

Austrian cookie recipe from friends of my grandmother. Vanilla sugar and vanilla confectioners sugar is just sugar with the addition of one vanilla bean to the container. The longer the vanilla bean stays in the container with the sugar, the more vanilla flavor is absorbed by the sugar.

Austrian Topfenpalatschinken – Austrian Sweet Crêpes

A very traditional and extremely delicious Austro-Hungarian dessert, that goes back quite some time. As i couldn’t find it on food.com i decided to post my version in here. I hope you’ll enjoy it! If you can’t get hold of curd you might as well use Ricotta, or a mixture of half Ricotta – half Cream-Cheese. Using low cal products is absolutely fine, but remember: the higher the fat content, the more flavour you usually get :). I converted the European measurements to their US equivalents, but don’t hesitate to experiment and decide for yourselves, whether you like it a hint sweeter, thinner, … etc.

Goulas of Chanterelles

This is a very typical austrian dish, every family has their own recipe. In the early of fall we go searching for, no, finding mushrooms. Where i grow up it is quite easy to find chanterelles but as they are terrible expensive if you are not that lucky to be able to go into the woods and find food, it is possible to use other mushrooms or a combination of different kinds. Traditionally served with dumplings.
