Disney Food Pictures...Part III

[Mrsdisneyb2b]

Spatzel is my most favorite thing in the world. There is a german place here in NY that we go to monthly...I can not get enough!

Amen! I purchased a spaetzle maker for my husband. Best gift ever! It's a nice change from noodles or potatoes. We just use them as noodles though. I can't imagine how you could make dumplings. Sounds yummy.

It certainly IS a recipe that has been changed over the generations. I actually don't really care for the scrawny little noodle things that people call spaetzle. If I want egg noodles, I'll eat egg noodles.
[My family, in their "Germ-lish" call them Spet-shells. LOL]

You make the dough, and it's a little wet, not as dry as noodle dough, and then you take two spoons, and scoop up some of the dough with one spoon, and use the other to scrape the dumpling off the first into the boiling salted water. When they float up to the top, their done.
The best size is like bigger than a big marble, smaller than a golf ball. Maybe half the size of a golf ball.
Then you have melted butter with onion ready, and you toss the dumplings with it. We serve this as a side with pork (side pork, if you can get it) and sauer kraut. MMMMMM.......

Just to let you know: this actually is a proper German dish. It is called Nockerln (the word is obviously realted to the Italian gnocchi), which is another term for dumpling. My mother ususally made them if the Spätzle dough was not wet enough and would not go through the Spätzle-maker.

Amen! I purchased a spaetzle maker for my husband. Best gift ever! It's a nice change from noodles or potatoes. We just use them as noodles though. I can't imagine how you could make dumplings. Sounds yummy.

I can really recommend the variation of baking them with grated cheese mixed under the Spätzle (we usually use swiss cheese) and serving it with fried onions and a green salad.

The Jägerschnitzel (hunter's schnitzel) normally would not be breaded, but the meat is pan fried and served with a mushroom sauce.

On our visit to Europe a few years back, this was my DH's FAVORITE, I had forgotten the name, thanks!

This sounds SO good. Boy I wish I knew how to make these 2 dishes, that sounds like a wonderful dinner.

This looks so much better than the pot stickers frozen lunch I just ate! Now I'm hungry again

Here are some pics from my most recent dining at WDW--February 09.

Tuto Italia
This is the lasagna entree, and in the background is the pumpkin ravioli, which by the way was very delicious! We also had bread with olive oil and some pickled vegetables which were both complimentary.

This is Tuto Italia's signature dessert, Bugie/Chiacchere. It was just a few big crispy fried chips covered with powdered sugar and had small bowls of chocolate and apricot sauce on the side. They were really rather plain and kind of a disappointment being that they were supposed to be the signature dessert.

This dessert, Tiramasu, was much better:

Grand Floridian Afternoon Tea:

Fruit and cheese plate and teapot of breakfast tea (strawberry/vanilla flavored tea)

 

[kidanigirl]

Lotus Blossom--China--Epcot:

Shrimp fried rice and eggroll, sesame chicken salad, a side of pork pot stickers:

Thank You soooooo much for Tuto's pics! We have booked this for the first time in June...and I now know not to order the signature dessert!! LOL! I thought the pumpkin ravioli was seasonal?? What kind of sauce did they serve with that?
