If you have never tried making your own noodles they really are not Artisan Bread sience and very rewarding. Serious they are really cool. Even the Grandkids can help!

They are also fresher and have a higher protein content than the store bought versions.
If you have a nice salad with fresh vegetables you shouldn't feel guilty about the fat and carbs. There are even ways to lower the fat and carbs in these dishes without loosing a lot of flavor and texture. An all around cookie that I feel has a German tradition to it is the Hazelnut Macaroon. The Macaroon arguably was invented in Nancy, France which at times was part of the Fatherland before the borders were changed. This cookie very close to the famous Nurnberger Lebkuchen.

 

Making your own Noodles

(Handgemacht Nudeln)

If you have never made your own noodles before it really isn't that hard or time consuming.

A real way to connect with your past. Imagine wanting to cook something special for the family or even just
something a bit different when back in those days you had so little to do with.

The result is wonderful also. The noodles instead of being slick thin perfect strips of sheet dough with a mono texture
these are individual nodules a bit knobby, a different textures and bit more chewy with the fissures in the dough picking
up extra flavor pockets.

Hazelnut Macaroons
(Haselnüss Makronen)

A v ery simple recipe of egg whites, sugar and nuts. These cookies are often in folks Christmas cookie repitore, but are great all year around. Nancy a city in France near the German border is very likely where the real Macaroon originated. If you look at the recipe for the famous Nurnberger Lebkuchen or Elisenlebkuchen it is very similar in style to the one in Nancy.

This cookie is more mounded and has a meringue top and nut. Hazelnuts grow well in parts of Germany so it makes sense that they would make a Hazelnut (Haselnüss) style macaroon.
