Zigerkrapfen
I have long avoided making deep-fried Zigerkrapfen, but this year I found myself with a slab of Ziger in one hand and my little Bernese cookbook of 1749 in the other.
A puff pastry alternative was born.
Hi, I'm Andie.
I live near the Swiss Alps, in Bern, and I love not only melting cheese, but all kinds of Swiss cooking.
All in Fasnacht
I have long avoided making deep-fried Zigerkrapfen, but this year I found myself with a slab of Ziger in one hand and my little Bernese cookbook of 1749 in the other.
A puff pastry alternative was born.
Another dish to celebrate Fasnacht, here is the warm and bready Basler Mehlsuppe.
These luscious little breads, typically sprinkled with caraway seeds, have always been associated with Fastenzeit, Lent.
In honour of Luzern’s carnival, this giant puff pastry dome is filled with creamy meats and raisins.
