A salad as if it were a tagine dish, something like that. The ingredients could be in a tagine. But now I have made a salad out of it. With a lot of delicious layers of flavor. And for all seasons. Also very nice.

Soup can of course be made from any vegetables there is. I had never done that with pointed cabbage before. But I had six left and wanted to give it a try. It became the hit of the menu. And was even allowed to appear in the Christmas menu. Pointed cabbage works great, white cabbage is also delicious.

The vegetable garden brought in a few kilos of their newly harvested grapes. But they were small, had a hard skin and were also a bit too sour for my liking. Not to be used for our dessert in any case, I thought. But of course, throwing it away is never an option. So, I tried to turn them into something delicious by boiling them in cardamom and cinnamon. And cane sugar. And? Dessert hit. It’s too nice how things can suddenly go like this. Enjoy.

Beetroot, this way, you can’t dislike. I’m sure of that, because the week we had this salad on the menu, I heard that every day. Especially from guests who solemnly declared that they didn’t really like beetroot, but still wanted to enjoy a second helping that evening. That’s all you need to know, right?
