Dutch Recipes and Cuisine

Dutch cuisine is very much influenced by the agricultural produce of the Netherlands and the country's history as a seafaring nation. Fish and seafood (including cod, eel, herring, mackerel, mussels, oysters, plaice, salmon, sardines, soleidae, shrimp, trout and tuna) are all eaten in the Netherlands. Popular meats include beef, chicken and pork.

The colonial past of the Netherlands has also had an influence on the country's cuisine. The Dutch were involved in the Dutch East Indies (Dutch: Nederlands-Indië) - present day Indonesia - for approximately 250 years, and Indonesian cuisine has left a lasting mark on the Dutch palate. Indonesian dishes such as Nasi Goreng (spicy rice with chicken or pork) have become Dutch dishes too!

Here are some other popular Dutch dishes:

- Balkenbrij - A liverwurst sausage loaf (Dutch: Leverworst) made from pork, but containing enough pork liver to have a distinctive liver-taste. The loaf is cut into slices about ½ inch (1 centimeter) thick which are then fried.

- Boerenkoolstamppot - A stew made with potato and kale. It is served with gravy and rookwurst (Dutch spicy sausage).

- Hete bliksem - Boiled potatoes and green apples, with stroop (syrup) or diced speck (juniper-flavored dry-cured ham).

- Hutspot - A traditional stew made using boiled and mashed potatoes with carrots and onions.

- Stamppot rauwe andijvie - Raw endive (a variant of chicory) mashed into potatoes, and served with diced and fried speck (juniper-flavored dry-cured ham).

- Zuurkoolstamppot - Sauerkraut (pickled cabbage) with mashed potatoes. served with sausage or bacon, and sometimes flavored with curry powder, raisins or pineapple.

Popular Dutch desserts include:

- Appeltaart - Apple pie. In the Netherlands, apple pies usually contain cinnamon, lemon and raisins, and have a lattice-style topping and icing.

- Oliebollen - The Dutch version of donuts made by deep-frying dough, allowing it to cool and rise, and covering with powdered sugar. They are eaten at fairs, and during the Christmas period, especially around New Year.

- Spekkoek - A very rich and spicy Dutch-Indonesian pastry made from many layers of pastry.

- Stroopwafel - Two round waffle-like wafers with a caramel filling between them.

I Love Italian Regional Cuisine - Pairing Lombardy Pastries and Desserts With Sweet Wine

Poor old Lombardy has no seacoast. So she has to make do with some of the finest lakes in all of Europe. Its capital Milan is Italy's center of finance, fashion, and the media. Did we mention the region's voluminous agricultural output? Expect to find fine wine and food in this lovely region.

Colomba Pasquale (Easter Dove) is a great yeast cake that ends up looking like a dove, especially if you buy a mold. Among its ingredients are egg yolks, diced candied orange and lemon rinds, milk and almonds. It's a hands-on recipe, but if you're lucky enough to live near a good Italian bakery you may be able to buy it at Easter. Traditional wine pairings include fizzy or sparkling (the sparkling is more fun) Asti DOCG from the neighboring region of Piedmont, the nearby red or rose Malvasia di Casorzo d'Asti DOC available in a wide variety of styles, and the Tuscan white Moscadello di Montalcino DOC. You won't have trouble finding the Asti or probably the Moscadello. No promises for the Malvasia.

Desserts Food

Panettone is a classic Italian Christmas cake. The Lombardy version is said to be the best and the hardest to make. To do it right, use baker's yeast. Among the ingredients are egg yolks, melted butter, raisins (soak them and squeeze them dry), butter, and diced candied orange and lemon rinds. Italian bakeries should carry this delicacy at Christmas time. Suggested wine pairings include the red fizzy or sparkling Acqui/Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG from neighboring Piedmont (if you can find it), Asti, and Moscadello di Montalcino DOC.

Sbrisolona (Crumbly Cake) starts with white flour and cornmeal. Other ingredients include butter, white wine, chocolate, and candied cherries. As its name indicates, make sure the dough stays crumbly. Slice while hot so it doesn't break. Among the many recommended wine pairings try Colli Orientali del Friuli Picolit DOCG from the Friuli-Venezia Giula region of northeastern Italy, Vino Santo di Chianti Classico DOC from Tuscany, and the hard to find Ramandolo DOCG also from Friuli-Venezia Giula. In spite of what you might think from its name, Vino Santo di Chianti is often white.

Torrone (Nougat) is a delicious candy made from honey, sugar, egg whites, pistachios, almonds and some other goodies. This should be fairly easy to purchase. I'm told that Torrone keeps for a long time when wrapped in waxed paper or aluminum foil. Don't believe it. Enjoy with wine pairings such as Greco di Bianco DOC from Calabria, Moscato di Trani DOC from Apulia, or Vin Santo di Montepulciano DOC from Tuscany. This last wine may be white or red. At least the last two should be relatively easy to find.

Our final Lombardy dessert recommendation is Torta Paradiso (Angel Cake) said to be best in Pavia. You'll need potato starch, more egg yolks than egg whites, butter, and a few more ingredients. Serve the day after you make it. And what dessert wines should you serve? Suggested pairings include Loazzolo DOC from Piedmont, Malvasia di Cagliari DOC from Sardinia, and Recioto di Soave DOCG from Veneto. This last wine may be sparkling and whether or not it sparkles will probably cost more than the others. But it's a lot easier to find.
