Continuing our series on unmissable dishes in popular destinations, our Netherlands expert reveals his favourites. See previous articles for the best food to eat in Spain, Italy, Germany and France. 1. Texel lamb What makes it great The lambs that frolic and graze on the salty grasslands of the island of Texel,cheap retro jordans, in the Wadden Sea off the Netherlands’ far northern coast,cheap jordan shoes, are renowned for their herby, faintly salty,cheap authentic jordans,http://koch.cucs.udg.mx/drupbas/registro#comment-204132cheapjordanshoesfreeshipping.com/bolg, meltingly tender flesh. The island of Texel Where to try it Travel across the mudflats to savour the lamb in situ. The best I’ve had on the island is at Bij Jef, where owner-chef Jef Schuur cooks a trio of cuts, each in a slightly different way. 2,Kicksokok.com. North Sea cod What makes it great Firm of flesh and full of flavour, Dutch cod makes its own strong statement, yet combines excitingly with other tastes. In the hands of someone who know what to add and when to hold back, cod can make a dish far greater than the sum of its parts. Where to try it Chef Sidney Schutte at Librije’s Zusje in Amsterdam comes up with cod loin with a dashi-and-passion-fruit sauce, a dish that is my all-time top after many years of dining out. 3. Limburg asparagus What makes it great Thick, white and powerful, Limburg asparagus packs a lot of punch, and cooked to a point where it combines just the right amount of give and crunch is a main course in itself. Limburg is famous for its white asparagus Credit: VALENTYN VOLKOV Where to try it In the restaurant at Kasteel Ter Worm, just outside Heerlen near the German border, I relish both the creamy soup and the classic grilled asparagus, served with a poached farm egg and savoury sabayon sauce. 4. Erwtensoep (pea soup) What makes it great Porridge-thick pea soup (your spoon should stand up in it) is the ideal winter warmer. Vegetarians beware: it comes with smoked sausage floating in it, and usually with a side of dark bread and cured ham. Where to try it The richest erwtensoep I’ve had was made by Jan Nederhoed, a butcher from Leek in Groningen. Luckily, you can buy it canned to take home from Het Lekkere Winkeltje ,cheap jordans free shipping;in Leek. View more! 5. Zeeland mussels What makes it great A pot of succulent, fat Zeeland mussels, semi-steamed with a dash of wine and stock, and served with crusty bread is the quickest way to heaven on a summer’s afternoon. Where to try it Danny and Juri Nolet at Nolet’s Vistro, almost on top of the oyster and mussel beds at Yerseke, cook the perfect pot. View more! 6. Haring (herring) What makes it great Fat new Hollandse Nieuwe (Dutch New) herring, caught between May and July, cleaned and salted aboard the boats and serve raw, to be slipped straight down the throat, or served on soft bread with chopped onion, is like kissing the sea. Herring is usually served raw, with soft bread and chopped onion Credit: gigra - Fotolia Where to try it Schmidt Zeevis in Rotterdam serves it straight, and you eat standing up at counter-tables. 7. Hutspot (hotchpotch) What makes it great Potatoes mashed with carrot and served with slow-stewed brisket – or hutspot’s cousin,cheap air jordans, stamppot: spuds mashed with endive (usually) and dished up with smoked sausage – give just the right flavoursome solace required of comfort food. Hutspot is simple but delicious Credit: MARC VENEMA Where to try it In Leiden, the home of hutspot (a pot was supposedly captured from the occupying Spanish forces and served to hungry citizens in 1574), you can get it all over town during the annual October celebration of the lifting of the siege. My favourite is from Roberto’s, where Roberto Slierlings turns a summer ice-cream parlour into a winter stamppot emporium. 8. Rijsttafel (literally: rice table)  ,cheap real jordans; What makes it great This feast of spicy dishes and rice was invented in colonial Indonesia to satisfy hungry Dutch overlords, and combines delicious mouthfuls of all manner of surprising flavours with the fun of a communal meal. Where to try it The rijsttafel is now considered a Dutch national speciality, and some of the best are to be had in The Hague, where many from the former colonies came to live after Indonesian independence. My favourite restaurant here is the very traditional Bogor (Van Swietenstraat 2, 00 31 70 346 1628; no website). View more! 9. Croquettes What makes them great Crispy crumbed crusts and piping hot creamy fillings – traditionally beef, though I prefer prawn – make krokketten a deeply satisfying between-meals snack and a great drinks accompaniment. Where to try it Undisputed croquette king for well over half a century is Eetsalon Van Dobben in Amsterdam. 10. Friet mayonnaise (potato fries with mayonnaise) What makes them great Firm, sweet potatoes cut pinkie-thin and fried twice – once to cook them, then after cooling, a second time to turn them crispy golden brown – are simply irresistible, at any time of day or night, and are as much a national food for the Dutch as for their Flemish cousins to the south. Where to try it The Frietwinkel in Utrecht serves a superb cone of chips, using organic potatoes and with some adventurous toppings (such as pumpkin ketchup). View more! A wind-whipped wildfire swept into a wealthy Southern California neighbourhood on Wednesday night, destroying at least six homes, threatening hundreds more and scorching a building at a winery owned by billionaire media mogul Rupert?Murdoch. The so-called Skirball Fire, which erupted early on Wednesday as the latest in a rash of major blazes fuelled by hot, dry Santa Ana winds,http://users.atw.hu/lpnw-esports/index.php?site=forum_topic&topic=14674cheapjordanshoesfreeshipping.com/bolg, had burned about 150 acres near large estates in the Bel-Air neighbourhood of Los Angeles by nightfall and was only 5 percent contained. Firefighters battled to save multimillion-dollar homes in the path of the flames, which also forced the closure of the San Diego (405) Freeway in both directions. "We are expecting some extreme wind behaviour this evening," Los Angeles County Fire Chief Daryl Osby said. ?The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, which uses a colour-coded wind index,http://users.atw.hu/finter-clan/index.php?site=forum_topic&topic=15801cheapjordanshoesfreeshipping.com/bolg, issued a purple forecast,cheap jordans for sale, the most severe, for the first time ever, director Ken Pimlott said. |
