Hello, everyone! I am happy to share with you one of our favorite soups: Frittatensuppe. Since it is my husband’s favorite, it’s a recipe I make often at home and constantly enjoy. It’s also something we enjoy often at restaurants in Austria as our appetizer, or to begin a home-cooked family meal. Frittatensuppe requires very little…
I made this potato pancake ‘pie’ because I had a problem in my pantry and needed an immediate solution: I had a large number of potatoes had no business sitting around my kitchen anymore and bits and pieces of cheeses, herbs, and vegetables. I try hard not to waste, so my solution evolved into this…
Roast chicken is a meal that everyone should learn to cook and then make it again and again until it’s their very own beautiful creation. That is exactly what I have done here. I have watched my family make turkeys and chickens and learned little tricks and preferences for taste along the way. I’ve read…
The method of this soup can be used for such a large variety of vegetables. I know that you can swap the cauliflower for broccoli, and I do not see why this cannot translate to potatoes, leeks, carrots, or any other vegetables that roast well and has a good, hearty flavor. If you don’t have…
What is Spätzle? Spätzle is an Austrian (and German) egg noodle that is shaped by pressing dough through the holes of either a spätzle maker or a slotted spoon.

Ramps are the relatives of ramsons and are found in US grocery stores. During the spring, restaurants in Austria…
Schnitzel mit mir machen! In this recipe, I explain the method taught to me by my husband’s side of the family and the methods that I have adopted as my own (labeled “authentic” and “unauthentic”). There are some slight variations, as in how to season the flour vs. bread crumbs, what type of oil to…
This recipe is based on the NYTimes recipes for “Fresh and Wild Mushroom Stew”. The idea of this recipe sounded really good for a cold night, but I did not have the types of mushrooms that this recipe called for so I adapted the recipe to make it way less reliant on (more expensive) mushrooms…
Bone broth is something I enjoy making since I prefer to purchase entire chickens when they are available. Purchasing an entire chicken means that you get a week’s worth (even more, if you freeze the broth!) of meals, rather than just one or two nights. I will give you my recipe, assuming that you have…
