japanese cooking 101 - kasahara acupuncture
http://kasahara.ch/Japanese-cooking-101
Fee & packages. News & blog. Japan Club Zurich News Letter. About my logo “agari-fuji”. Japanese cooking 101 – because it explains “how” and “why” of very basic Japanese cooking ingredients, skills, techniques and manners which non of the cookbook would bother to explain. Japanese cooking essentials and table manner class were success. Thank you for so many people who participated in my Japanese home cooking class. Jack from Laughing Lemon Food and Wine. And, no, Japanese are not always wielding. After t...

expat chow: Laughing Lemon: November
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2009/12/laughing-lemon-nov.html
Tuesday, December 22, 2009. My friends and I attended another "What's In Season" class from Laughing Lemon. In November. As always, it was extremely informative and the food delicious. Thanks Jack and Silvia! Some things I learned:. Soaking sliced brussel sprouts in water for about an hour before cooking makes them taste so much better. Anise or fennel make them taste milder and also aid digestion. Persimmon: you can simply press the soft ones through a sieve and have an instant sauce. Yum! Volume to wei...

expat chow: pretty summer soup
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2009/08/pretty-summer-soup.html
Tuesday, August 25, 2009. Back when I lived in California, I never felt the seasons come and go and I barely noticed when items like nectarines or summer squash arrived or disappeared from the shelves. Almost everything was available all the time. But in Zurich, I'm in a constant panic, buying much more produce that our small family can possibly consume, worried that some item will suddenly disappear, not to be dreamt of for months. Curried Yellow Squash Soup with Cilantro-Lime. 2 TB olive oil. 7 When yo...

expat chow: improving on the nie nie mud cake
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2009/10/improving-on-nie-nie-mud-cake.html
Thursday, October 29, 2009. Improving on the nie nie mud cake. My friend suggested that I make Nie Nie's Mud Cake Magnifique. And of course, I made it because I love special requests. The cake was delicious and not particularly complicated. But the recipe drove me a little crazy, what with the unusual ingredients (olive oil in a chocolate cake? And lack of explanation for instructions that veered from the cake making norm. But despite this, the cake was a big hit and I've made it three times already.

expat chow: vanilla extract: make your own
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2008/10/vanilla-extract-make-your-own.html
Wednesday, October 15, 2008. Vanilla extract: make your own. I was excited to find a good use for this cool bottle I've had sitting in my cupboard for 10 years. I finally got around to making my own vanilla extract. I had a huge bottle of vodka left over from making ice cream and pie crust, which only require a couple tablespoons each per batch. Since I'm a teetotaler. Vanilla beans are dirt cheap here: 2.40sfr for 3 beans. Can't wait for the results. As far as vanilla sugar - OMG! I am going to buy vani...

expat chow: gaufre de liege
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2009/03/gaufre-de-liege.html
Wednesday, March 25, 2009. Every street fair I've been to in Switzerland and beyond serves up Gaufre de Liege. The dense, chewy, yeasty Belgium waffles (not the light and crispy ones), served with a sprinkling of powdered sugar and sometimes a side of ice cream. I can't resist them and am never satisfied with just one (especially when I have to share with my two boys). I saw version of this recipe with same yeast with only 1 cup? Thanks Megan for letting me use your waffle iron! 1 1/3 cups warm milk.

expat chow: back in the saddle, mango in tow
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2011/06/back-in-saddle-mango-in-tow.html
Tuesday, June 14, 2011. Back in the saddle, mango in tow. I've neglected this blog long enough. I've got lots of photos and info waiting in the queue, I've just been too lazy/busy/unmotivated to post. So let's give it another go. Let's start with my new love for Aggarwal: Fine Continental Food. My hands-down favorite item from this store was the yellow Pakistan mango. So delicious! 1 cup mango pulp or cut up mango. Honey or sugar to taste (1-2 TB). Pinch of cardamon (optional). Thrilled you are posting a...

expat chow: markthalle im viadukt needs you!
http://expatchow.blogspot.com/2011/07/markthalle-im-viadukt-needs-you.html
Thursday, July 07, 2011. Markthalle im viadukt needs you! Markthalle im Viadukt as spied from Tram 13 Dammweg stop. Anyone else been down to the Viadukt Markthalle. I saw it by chance while riding Tram 13 across town. It's a permanent food market open pretty much all day, every day (except Sunday) out near Escher-Wyss platz. It's Zürich's small time answer to San Francisco's Ferry Building. Or London's Borough Market. Or Madrid's Mercado San Miguel. Or Firenze's San Lorenzo Mercato Centrale. We had a van...
