Petra from Chili und Ciabatta invited me to participate in the joint project The Foodblogger’s Guide to the Globe or 5 things to eat before you die, started by Melissa from The Traveller’s Lunchbox.
The idea is to present 5 things you’ve eaten and think that everyone should eat at least once before they die. Quite difficult, no?
As a Swiss living now in Andalucia, Spain I would like to present some tasty Swiss and Spanish specialities you should taste if you have the possibility.
In Switzerland I’ve never tried this sausage, even you can buy it in specalised shops. Once arrived in Spain I did not taste it immediately. I do not why, because it’s delicious! In the meantime I have some good recipes where I use it. For example you can combine it with Risotto. So you have an Italian/Spanish-speciality. The recipe you’ll find here.
and duro/tough (variety Alicante). For the Mousse de Turrón you need the soft one.
The best you eat it on an alp in Valais. A lot of ambiance and no smelly livingroom. ;-) The modern way is of coures an electric table-top grill with small pans to heat slices of cheese in.
Of course you should buy this cake in Zug – http://www.diezugerkirschtorte.ch/
„Para chuparse los dedos“ (mouth-watering), Spaniards use to say.
Here you’ll find the list of all the proposed things – until now more than 1000!
The blogger I would like to invite to participate in this great joint project are:
– Mlle Différentielle
– Rosa (yummy-yums)
– La cerise
– yooee
– Kaltmamsell
How to participate, please read here.
Thanks for tagging me! I will try to list the specialities that I’d like to eat before I die :- (, but it’s a rather difficult question to answer so I’ll need a little time to think…
Your choice is very good as all those specialities are superfine! It’s funny to see that you also love Kirschtorte; that has always been my favorite torte since I’m a small kid…
REPLY:
Thanks for the meme – it is a very difficult question. But I have already thought of the answer when I got tagged by Bonnie. There is no Kirschtorte in the list ;) Well, I actually have never tasted it – perhaps I should(just because of this nice color)?
i love the idea!
Hi! Thanks for your visit! you have a very interesting blog!Unortunately…I don’t speak german!I like your list!Kisses
Thanks for tagging me! And sorry for taking so long to answer. Unlike my husband, who can rattle off his top 5 books, movies or cities in an instant, listing my top 5 or 10 of anything puts me a cold sweat, I find it very hard to make choices! (Just as I find it hard to choose photos for my blogs). But it’s a very good exercise, and as soon as I have a minute I’ll respond to your kind invitation.
Thanks for this post! My fiance and I are planning to have our honeymoon in Switzerland and it is exciting to see some of the food we will have to look forward to! =)
