	What is their obsession with Gherkins!!! Does anyone know where I might buy a trad swiss receipe book but written in English? My German is nowhere near good enough still to try to follow instructions in it!!

Orell Fussli on Rennweg/Bahnhofstrasse has some.

	Well, I guess it does depend on the cheese. Maybe Swiss Cheese, but I haven't had it in years.

Pssst... "Swiss Cheese" doesn't exist over here! Just like English muffins don't in England.

If you can find them, some standard Swiss cheeses to try are Emmentaler, Gruyere and Appenzeller. Emmentaler has holes and is the closest of them to the "Swiss Cheese" you're used to.

Oh...well, makes sense. But I'll see if those are available here in OC. Thanks again guys for all the links and recipes.

For those interested in Swiss style cooking, Betty Bossy (the Delia of Switzerland) has recently published THE SWISS COOK BOOK - available in German, French, Italian and English. See www.bettybossy.ch

Is Betty Bossi actually a real person?

I just presumed she was another Betty Crocker type of thing...

Google is your friend - well mine anyway. Betty Bossi - and we all know where Google translate is, don't we?
