This weekend we're going on a motorhome trip and we're going to take the opportunity to feast on seafood. Among other things, there will be crayfish in their own layer.

Read moreNow it was time for roast venison with baked root vegetables. We tried this after trying to cook deer, elk and wild boar. We cooked the roast in the oven and it was really good together with baked root vegetables, jelly and cream sauce.
Read moreChèvre chaud - what a fantastic and perfect starter! It's the weekend now and you have a little more time to experiment in the kitchen. Yesterday we made a (for us) new starter, which turned out really, really good: goat cheese au gratin on a bed of salad. If you haven't made it before, try this!
