It’s typical for the season,it’s typical Bavarian with a touch of black forest where I was born
I´m Claudia, born and grew up in beautiful Baden-Baden. Meanwhile, I´m living in Munich for several years.
When I´m cooking, I´m fearless. That means, there´s nothing I don´t want to try. I cook Indian, French, Oriental, German and most of all "cross-over". I want to look into the cooking pots of foreign countries, while I´m travelling. I travelled to Asia, North-, South- and Central America, Europe and South Africa. And the more I travel, the bigger the world becomes. With this blog, I would like to take you on these small and big journeys and I would like to share my passion for cooking with you.

The local gastronomy
Summer in Bavaria is a wonderful time. With this recipe, however, I wanted to thank not only my wonderful Munich for its great markets, but also a bit of my Baden homeland, because I come from the Black Forest, but I have been living in Bavaria for many years. In the Black Forest, of course, we like to eat game. And Bavaria is world famous for its breads and dumplings. Wild herbs are found in abundance in summer and chanterelles are found in the forest. You can collect them yourself or simply buy them at the market.
