Mutzen

Dennis

Every winter or before Christmas I buy a bag of Mutzen sometimes, and they are tasty small biscuits. I am not a great cook and I can’t give you an exact recipe but as far as I know they are made of flour, eggs and sugar. The pastry is put into hot oil and the result are those cute and tasty looking pastry balls. Mutzen are a Rhenish recipe as I have read, and it was a traditional biscuit for carnival and new year’s eve. But that just seems to be the history of it, but today you will probably … Continue reading Mutzen

Dark Place

Dennis

I am here to share a photo again. I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it due to the fact that I wanted to refurbish my apartment, but we’re already done with every room except the living room. The living room will be more difficult because there is more work to do. My calculation with the paint was a bit off and now I don’t have enough to start with the last room. We could already remove the old wallpapers and put new ones on the wall, but we take it easy now until I purchased a new bucket. … Continue reading Dark Place
