Dutch Cheese - A Measuring
Stick for Dutch Culture?
(c) The Writing Well |
I read an
article today on the Weekly Telegraph written by Karen Vivers about the role of Dutch food in helping her settle here in the Netherlands. It's an interesting read - the simpleness of Dutch food.... and a reminder that sometimes we don't need everything to be complicated or in her words, "bigger and better." I agree that food here in the Netherlands gives a real insight in to the Dutch culture and people.
Karen gives cooking lessons and culinary tours of Amsterdam and you can find more information on her site:

Make seance. Especially coming from England where the food is also quite simple.
This is great! Thank you for sharing!
I absolutely love Dutch cheese, especially gouda.
Dutch cuisine -- simple, but not always fast: I'm making "snert" (split pea soup) today here in Moldova where it is -15 C (5F) this morning.
Sorting of peas, chopping and washing of leeks and other veggies. It takes time, but it's so worth it!
And fortunately my American mate loves the green stuff ;)
