The best Christmas recipes from the chefs in a row
Just like last year, we will celebrate Christmas at home again this year loved ones (and the loved ones only). Small and intimate. Nothing wrong with that, but all the more reason to go all out for Christmas (hello private party). Anyone who follows Bart a little has already seen a lot of 'Christmas'. By inspiration on how to celebrate Christmas in 2021 to the best Christmas movies. In addition to the filling, filling the belly (ha, nice!) is also important during the Christmas period. You can choose to to pick up goodies, but you can also cook yourself. How? With the (very) best Christmas recipes from chefs. See here: all recipes - drinks, before, main, after - from chefs in a row.
(just a nice idea: put all the recipes in a large jar and draw lots for the coming week: that is what you will eat that day (or the next, because of groceries and such))
Why make it difficult when it can be easy? All that stress at Christmas about the perfect dinner, the craziness that everyone thinks they have to comply with... Caviar, truffles, foie gras, the best wines and so on are sprinkled around. That's right, that's nice, but secretly it's quite a hassle. And it always hurts in the wallet...
Well, then you should try this recipe! It is fun to cook and not too much hassle. Ha! Every half hour we look at the stew, then enjoy each other and the Christmas atmosphere. Because folks, after another year like this, you really shouldn't make things more difficult for yourself at Christmas - or at all - than necessary.
Bart went out and rang the alarm at the hotel The Dylan on the Keizersgracht in Amsterdam. There we picked up the tastiest Christmas recipe from Michelin star chef Dennis Kuipers(*) from restaurant Vinkeles. Is it difficult, his menu? No! That is our request to the chefs: tasty and delicious idiot-proof. You can thank us later. Fun fact: Chef Kuipers received his first Michelin star when this recipe was put on the menu of restaurant Vinkeles.
This recipe is a delicious starter, or how about at the end of the afternoon, a good start next to your third glass of bubbles.
Christmas without food coma It's not quite a real Christmas, is it? On and around (and after) December 25, you expect a little more from dinner. And not just dinner: it's actually a party all day long. Food and drinks. When you drink, treat yourself to one of these bubbles. The (magnum) bubbles from Bart. Drink check? On to part 2: le food. Although you still have to make it yourself. It's fun, it really is (and then damn tasty, if it does it right).
Stefan Schuchard, the chef of Restaurant Kien, you know, that top restaurant in Amsterdam-West, shares its ultimate Christmas recipe here. Coq au vin it is.
Chef Peter takes a comprehensive approach with a cold and warm version of the langoustine and quite a few components. But people, you got this. As the picture reveals, this is how you prepare the dish the way Peter does it. Good luck and have fun eating!
De Nederlanden, a Michelin star restaurant with delightful bedrooms close to Amsterdam. At the helm is star chef Wilco Berends, best known for his signature oyster tasting.
In addition to the restaurant, De Nederlanden also has eleven beautifully furnished hotel rooms and a suite. Wilco's wife Caroline was mainly involved in the furnishing of the rooms and is a master hostess. To the point: Star chef Wilco also shares his favorite Christmas recipe with us. One to print out and frame: soufflé of vanilla and cottage cheese with banana ice cream.
The recipes of star chef Sergio Herman's favorite dishes. His favorite, he told us himself, is twice comfort food (hurray! Sergio is not foreign to anything human). Both recipes come from Sergio's book 'Simple Food'. Twice as tasty: we have a recipe for fish lovers and one for carnivores.
Convenient? Groenlo? More soon, but first this because we sounded the alarm and then... Rolled out this delicious Christmas recipe from the Top Hat from the East (that is, from the country). Wonderful for the holidays, but also one to remember afterwards. What?
Cauliflower couscous with braised vegetables, mustard seeds and potato-quinoa crisp. Exactly, no meat or fish this Christmas if it were up to team Groenlo: vegetarian it is.
