Okay people, I need your help!

 

I need some recipes of traditional food from all over the world plus some traditional songs that can be found on eMule.

 

I have enough food from Europe (but not songs!), so now I need mostly recipes from Africa, Asia, Australia and Americas.

 

Food should be simple, easy and quick to prepare, becasue we have a small kitchen and it's for an event i'm organising.

 

Pretty please.

 

 

Also, I'd like to ask Julia and Grace (or any other German coldplayer) what do I need for Spatzle. I got this recipe in Italian, but I don't understand everything. So yes.

 

 

Help me please!

I can help you with those Spätzle...

tell me, what you don't understand! :)

I need to think about a nice typical food.. I don't really like to cook... if I can think in something interesting I'll tell you :)

what kind of traditional songs? like song you sing at feasts (easter, christmas...) ?

well, i have a recipe, but it's in italian so i don't understand some things - how to prepare it, which cooking machinery (:laugh4:) do you need etc. :(

likewise ... i'm not a good cook :D and just take your time, you don't need to hurry :)

yeah, songs like that. it'd be great tho if they were about food!

okay...

Well, I had a look in the Internet and for Spätzle (for 4 people) you need

 

 

500g flour

5 eggs

150-200 ml water

salt

 

You put all that stuff into a bowl and stir it, until it's a quite stringy dough...

then you fill a big pot with water which you bring to a boil. Put some salt in the boiling water.

Then you have to make the "Spätzle"... it works something like illustrated in this picture:

 

 

 

When the "Spätzle" swim on the surface of the water, they're done...

 

 

I think, it's pretty tough to get the Spätzle in shape, but good luck! :)

hmm okaj well the first song I thought of was "Hej tomtegubbar" ("Hi Jolly Gnomes" I think)

it's not really about food, it's more about drinking but this is a very common swedish drinking song that is sung at the christmas dinner when you're gonna drink the schnapps ( think that's the right word)

 

Hej, tomtegubbar, slån i glassen,

och låt oss lustiga vara.

En liten tid,

vi leva här,

med mycken möda

och stort besvär.

 

Hej, tomtegubbar, slån i glasen,

och låt oss lustiga vara!

 

in english

Hi, tomtegubbar, fill your glasses

and let's be jolly together.

Our time is brief

Upon the earth,

with troubles many

and little mirth.

 

Hi, tomtegubbar, fill your glasses

and let's be jolly together.

Thanks to both of you, Winnie and Sophia! :nice:

thank you Lore!! =)

hello eglantine...

 

i am the asian ambassador in this site (for a moment) so if u want any asian recipe just ask me! :D

hey Rudy ... :)

 

I think i have enough asian recipes already... do you have any folk song from any asian country?

folk song...? i think i can find it but can u understand it well??? :D

i wont understand it, but i need it anyway ;)

For something American, why not just make a nice apple pie (or blueberry?) for dessert or something? I can bug my mom for my grandma's recipe if you want.

 

If you want something Canadian, there's always poutine... (French fries with gravy and cheese curds.)

 

Ooh, or butter tarts. You should make butter tarts. :nice: Besides, desserts like that can be made the day before, saving time and kitchen space.

oohh...eglantine.. i also wanna ask some recipe... anyone have recipe of deep fried cheese balls??? the one that coated with bread crumbs...

Erin, I'll ask about adding a new dish to the menu and then i'll see ... if it's not going to be on the event, then i'll make it at home! :D

I wouldn't reccomend Russian food. It's not very tasty... though I do like my mom's Borscht and her crepes. also caviar is nice :lol:!!!

What recipe do you have from holland?
