Europe was the first to integrate dessert into mealtimes, making it the perfect destination to explore while trying out the world’s tastiest treats!

Churros: Spain

This deep-fried dough sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and often dipped in chocolate sauce is an authentic Spanish treat. It’s commonly served for breakfast with a warm cup of coffee.

Eclair: France

You will almost always find a glistening row of these beautiful pastries at French bakeries. The traditional chocolate eclair uses a simple pasty dough filled with vanilla cream and topped with a rich chocolate glaze.

Trdelnik: Czech Republic

Trdelnik is a soft dough wrapped around a stick and grilled right in front of you in Prague street stands. It’s topped with sugar and walnuts and served with ice cream, chocolate, or fruit.

Banoffee Pie: England

This quintessential British dessert is a must-have on your next trip to London. It deliciously combines a flaky, buttery crust with silky layers of toffee, bananas, and cream.

Gelato: Italy

Though there are many famous Italian desserts, there is one custardy treat that never fails to please. Gelato is made with less cream and more milk than ice cream, allowing a smoother, silkier consistency.

Muesli is a German breakfast type cereal that has was created at the beginning of the 20th century. The base for this breakfast is rolled oats, along with various nuts, dried fruits, and seeds. Although this is usually marketed as being healthier than cereal, the store-bought types can be just as sugary.

Making your own muesli at home means you can really customize it however you like, including making it as healthy as possible. Here’s a recipe for muesli that is both sugar-free and vegan, and you can even make it gluten-free!

Ingredients

  • coconut flakes
  • rolled oats, brazil nuts
  • peanuts
  • almonds
  • pumpkin seeds
  • flavorless oil

Method

  1. Soak your nuts and seeds the night before, or for an hour in boiling water to help them become more digestible.
  2. Roughly chop the nuts and add them to a bowl with the other dry ingredients.
  3. Drizzle in whatever oil you choose and pour it onto a baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes at a low temperature and store for up to three weeks in a glass jar!
  5. Enjoy with nut or seed milk, yogurt, or plain.

The Beauty Of Simplicity – Gjomleze https://foodisinthehouse.com/the-beauty-of-simplicity-gjomleze/ Sat, 27 Jul 2019 13:29:01 +0000 https://foodisinthehouse.com/?p=2811 The beautiful city of Ohrid, Macedonia, is known for its natural wonders, fascinating churches and delicious traditional food.

The beautiful city of Ohrid, Macedonia, is known for its natural wonders, fascinating churches and delicious traditional food. One of these staple dishes is gjomleze, a traditional Macedonian dish that is an important symbol of the Ohrid cuisine. The name comes from the Turkish word for waffle, but present day gjomleze has nothing to do with waffles.  

Gjomleze has only three ingredients: flour, water and salt. You might think that creating something so good using only three basic ingredients is impossible, and you will be somewhat right. The “secret” touch is actually the way you cook gjomleze. You must bake it in an extremely hot stone oven covered with charcoal, because otherwise it’s not worth the bother.

But, when you do it right, when you find the right balance of numerous layers of flaky, crispy dough and discreet burns on the top, and accompany it with a glass of cold kefir, you will find that gjomleze is something so incredibly satisfying yet so simple – and that’s exactly where its charm lies. 

A tip when ordering gjomleze: always stick to the simple stuff. Don’t go for the tourist’s trap and order gjomleze filled with this or that. Enjoy it plain, the way the old wise folks intended.
