A SUNDAY LUNCH: COOKING FROM OUR VERY FIRST GERMAN COOKBOOK

A SUNDAY LUNCH: COOKING FROM OUR VERY FIRST GERMAN COOKBOOK// Hello lovely people, Today will be a very very relaxed vlog - since we both enjoy cooking a lot we thought that it would be so much fun to try a recipe from our very first German cookbook that we bought almost 30 years ago. We still use this cookbook a lot but we never made the dish we're sharing today so it'll be interesting how it will turn out. Kirsten & Joerg
P.S. I just want to point out again that I was joking about guinea pig, this was guinea fowl!
_____
RECIPE GUINEAFOWL IN PUFF PASTRY:
Ingredients
Puff Pastry (we used gluten free one)
2 guinea fowls
2 tbsp butter
Salt & pepper
For the filling
Fresh parsley
Fresh chives
100g oyster mushrooms
200g soft cheese
1 tsp double cream
Salt & pepper
1 egg
Method
Defrost the puff pastry. Wasch the guinea fowls and dry them. Remove the breasts from the bones and fry in a pan for 2-3 minutes. Put aside (you can make a nice broth from the rest of the guinea fowls with some greens). Chop the parsley and the chives, wash the mushrooms and chop them too. Mix the soft cheese with the double cream, add the herbs and the mushrooms and season. Top the breasts with the filling and cover them with the puff pastry. Separate an egg and use the egg white for the edges. Whisk the egg yolk and coat the pastries. Cover a baking tray with baking paper and bake the pastries for 30 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius. Enjoy!

This vlog reminds me of the cozy life my husband and I had for 38 years. I miss our working together in the kitchen, like Joerg he enjoyed cooking sometimes.

I love it when you prepare a meal or a recipe in your kitchen. In fact, I love every video topic because you present them in such a charming, relaxing and informative way. I've decided that one of the main reasons that I love your channel so much is because your love for each other comes across in every video. It is such a pleasure to spend time with you two!

[@ingridbeentjes9974]

Thank you Kirsten and Joerg!🥰 I enjoyed watching you prepare that dish. and I like your idea about the almonds and the butter in your brussel sprouts period my dad would use margarine and nutmeg shaved over it. But your idea sounds pretty good. Thank you for sharing with us all here.

What a lovely video, you two have such a calming presence , it doesn’t matter what topic you choose , they are all fabulous!! Have a relaxing weekend !!!

Such a good idea for a Christmas dinner Kirsten(especially this year), I would use turkey but modify the recipe a bit to include cranberries. Love that the two of you keep things simple...as life should be. Take care, enjoy your weekend.

[@kathleensabourin556]

I wanted to see the inside of the pastry after it was cooked!😄 I would like to try the recipe! I will probably use chicken breast instead of guinnie fowl. I still use my pots and pans that we received as a wedding gift 35 years ago and they are still great! They are made by Paderno! It was lovely to spend an afternoon with you! Take care of yourselves ❤

The dish looked delicious and being a brussel sprouts fan, I’m going to try adding slivered almonds and butter next time as you suggested. I found Puss in Boots on eBay in the US. They listed it as (1962) Vinyl LP. I love watching your vlogs as you both make them so interesting and fun. Hoping you both stay healthy in this crazy time.

Oh, dear Kirsten, it is always the right topic. Never be concerned. You showed a lovely recipe and seeing the Bing Crosby album was such a blast from the past. It was one I had in my home when I was a child. Stories on an LP was also in my home. These were edifying because, as Joerg pointed out, the music was amazing.

Kirsten! You said at the end of this marvelous vignette, that you are not sure if this is the right topic. I can assure you that it was. I look forward to each and every one of my "visits" with you and Jorge. You do not disappoint and I always feel cozy and settled by watching you. Please don't hesitate to follow your instincts regarding what you want to talk about and present. Your stories are always appreciated and completely enjoyed. You both are a good team and so calming to watch. I have a good friend from Germany, Sabina, who taught me a very good word you have in your language that we don't have here, but I wish we did. Gemütlichkeit. I think this is an appropriate word that describes you both. Just know that there are a whole lot of us in this world who so enjoy and actually receive therapy from watching two beautiful people who respect and love each other offering us generous and positive moments from your lives. Thank you for sharing part of your world and making it a better place.

It was good to see you use your first cookery book. Don't apologise for its condition. My first book is from the 70,s. I had to put a " wrapping paper cover onto it". The inside doesn't bear inspection. Again I've been watching your very addictive programmes. I really enjoyed the one on Shugborough hall. Just 20 minutes away from our home. We haven't visited the property since the national trust took over from the council. Its looking much smarter. It had become very tired. Thank you so much especially for the tour of the grounds. Its something that we find ourselves somewhat restricted. Bless you both regards Sandra x

Thank you! Which topics are of interest to you?

[@happy_nancy4530]

@@KirstenJoerg Good morning Kirsten, and thank you for asking. As I sit here in northern Minnesota, with my Christmas tree lit up and my first cup of coffee, I watch because of the way you present your topics. You share things that you're interested in with information and insight, kindness, a bit of humor, and present it all via interactions with Joerg. That's the magic. Specific topics that I've enjoyed: your travels to English estates and parks, cooking episodes, your Christmas decorating episodes, recipes that Joerg cooks and that you eat together, and antique shopping! Blessings to you both on this New Year's Eve. Nancy

[@linneahdalmus1978]

Truly anything you two share is perfect because the joy and love that accompanies it is the happy thread that runs throughout!

Joerg , please show us how to sharpen a knife. ( slow motion) Next time you cook. I just hold the steel vertical on a folded cloth on the counter. Then I stroke each side of the knife up and down. It's the best I can do! Lovely recipe. No guinea fowl here, I can try chicken. I love salmon and shrimp inside puff pastry with a parsley sauce on the side and mashed potatoes.
