Sicilian Food Exploration: Arancini
Arancini are a little bit like the pies of Italy.
Sicilian Food Exploration: Sgriccio
Last year H and I had a September holiday in Sicily. As you can imagine, there were lots of good eats, although less cuisine diversity than I had envisaged.
However that gave us the opportunity to make the most of all the Sicilian favourites, which we did with gusto.
Dutch Food Exploration: Patatje Oorlog
Fries/chips/frites/patatje – chop a potato into straws and deep-fry it and you are on to a winner.
I looked into “must-eat” foods before we went to Amsterdam, and something that came up repeatedly was chips topped with mayonnaise, satay sauce and raw onion.
Dutch Food Exploration: Stroopwafel
Around the tender age of 7, H lived for a few years in Den Haag.
Since I have known him, he has had a fondness for stroopwafel – two thin chewy biscuitty rounds sandwiched with sugary syrup.
They were therefore a must-find on our Amsterdam visit.
