A couple of days ago I realized that I haven’t had Bratwurst for a long time. Arrived in the supermarket, I took a Thuringia Bratwurst package and went home. I wanted to eat it with fried potatoes because you know, I absolutely love fried potatoes. I added onions and pepper to the potatoes too. I also prepared gravy and done was the meal. And it was extremely delicious… Continue reading Bratwurst and Fried Potatoes
I don’t eat a lot of meat anymore but that doesn’t mean that I became a vegetarian. I still eat meat but in moderation. But some days ago when I walked through the garden areas to photograph cats, it smelled … Continue reading Easter Barbecue
I thought I upload a photo for my food photography category again. My grandma cooked the dish you can see in the picture above. We ate that during Christmas and that’s when I took the picture. I don’t always upload my photos in a timely manner. But I wanted to share it anyway. What you see is a Rinderroulade (Beef Roulade), with potatoes, red cabbage, peas, and carrots. And a tasty sauce! This is also a very common German dish and extremely tasty. Continue reading Beef Roulade
At the top, you see a photo of a very classical and traditional Northern German dish. It’s kale with fried potatoes, smoked pork chop, and smoked sausage.

But as said, it’s a dish you’re more likely to find during the autumn and winter months here, that’s what we call “Grünkohlsaison” (kale season). That’s because back in the days if you wanted fresh kale, you got it from autumn to March. Temperatures down … Continue reading Northern German Cuisine: Grünkohl
Here is a photo of potato croquettes. I just saw this in my library and thought I should eat a meal with potato croquettes again because I didn’t do it often this year. I like the close-up photo, it was shot with my 50mm lens. There is more food photography on my blog. Continue reading Potato Croquettes
Here is a photo I shot when my uncle was still lived. One day we tried pulled beef and since then he wanted to eat it regularly at least once a week. He always looked so amazed and when I watched him eating it felt like he forgot that he had a Glioblastoma IV diagnosis. I liked these moments because it was a difficult time. So, whenever we found something that would make him happy, we did all the best to do it again. The food you see in the picture is pulled beef with potato croquettes and tzatziki. And … Continue reading Pulled Beef
