Not only do my kids love these crispy long breadsticks, but adults also love to eat breadsticks as a snack with red wine for example.
You can bake them plain, but they can also be baked with rosemary, sesame seeds, cheese, or tomatoes, black olives and oregano.
Plain sticks are also great for chocolate fondue.
On top of that, you can dip them in chocolate and
 enjoy them as giant homemade pocky sticks!

The traditional way to eat it is with toasted bread or baguette with fruity jam.

This is a very old German recipe. My grandmother used to make it as a special Sunday lunch, and my father likes to make and eat it too. The meat is stuffed with pickled cucumbers, bacon, onions and mustard. It is similar in size and shape to cabbage rolls. The sauce is made with a lot of red wine and vegetables.

Red cabbage is a side dish that goes very well with red meat dishes, such as duck or beef stew. A lot of apples, juice, wine, and spices are used to make this very juicy cabbage.

My kids usually don’t like Brussels sprouts at all. However, they love these Brussels sprouts. They are tender, sweet, and have no bitterness. The almond butter gives the Brussels sprouts a lot of umami.

While it is still hot, there is a surprise of chocolate batter pouring out from inside like lava. It goes well with hot, juicy cinnamon cherries, whipped cream and vanilla ice cream.

When most people think of chocolate cake, the world-famous “Sacher Torte” probably comes to mind. The original recipe from the Hotel Sacher in Vienna is a big secret, a secret recipe known only to the hotel’s chefs. This is a variation of the recipe based on what we know about the original recipe. What makes this chocolate cake special is not only the famous Hotel Sacher name, but also the fact that it uses a lot of apricot jam. This makes it juicier than the usual chocolate cake.
