Re: (Food) What are you addicted to in CH?

Delacre Cigarettes Russes cookies dunked into my morning cappuccino. I leave them there for thirty seconds or so, just until they soften up but I make sure to take them out before they melt away into the coffee. Heaven, Swiss-style!

Thankfully the cookies come four packages to the box. I don't allow myself to open more than one package daily and try very hard to maintain a two-package-to-three-day ratio.

Re: (Food) What are you addicted to in CH?

1. Red Wine,
2. bread, the cheapest is always excellent,
3. cheese (any),
4. Lindt chocolate :-/
5. fresh bread with spicy/herbs goat cheese or walnut oil - delicious
6. Thick n' creamy soups with pan fried bread

I also cook more traditional food than ever before - it feels more like home

But you can dip Hobnobs, right?


Top Tip

Take one cup of coffee + 1 Penguin (biscuit, not flightless bird).

Bite off about 1 cm from diagonal corners of the Penguin.

Quickly stuff penguin in your mouth before it disinegrates.
You have absolutely ruined me for at least the next few days, image of penguin dunked in little espresso cup is now officially stuck in grey matter replay mode

I was never a fan, as I always found it a bit dry. However, a friend made a really pretty and delicious Christmasy cake by slicing it several times horizontally and sandwiching it back together with a lush mixture of mascarpone and icing sugar.
That sounds great!
You might even want to try Pandoro (the other Italian Christmas cake) sliced the same way and filled with nutella....or with mascarpone and coffee.......YUM!

I love blood and liverwurst, served with sauerkraut and spiced apple wedges. It only has a short season so I have to make the most of it.

Re: (Food) What are you addicted to in CH?

Pumpernikel bread.

I actually got hooked when I lived in Berlin, with cream cheese, jam or peanut butter, it's unbeatable. Apples.

I just found it in Manor today.

Re: (Food) What are you addicted to in CH?

oh, tons.

- Capuns, Pizokel and Tuorta da nuschs when in GR
- Bratwurst (St. Galler Kalbsbratwurst or Olma-Bratwurst) with Rösti when in a hurry to cook lunch/dinner
- Gruyère, Tilsiter and Appenzeller Mostbröckli for brunches
- Marroni (droool) at any time of the day, wherever there is a Marroni stand
- Zopf for Sunday's (and other day's ) breakfast
- Migros Mousse au chocolat (brown tub) for sweet-toothed moments

I'm getting hungry
