I just ate this in Maastricht - and came home to look for a recipe (I live in Germany). It is FABULOUS! Can't wait to try your recipe. Any possible substitutes for the gnger cake?
Hi Andrina, thanks for dropping by!
Where in Germany do you live? We lived in Köln a couple of years back. If I'm not mistaken, one can find gemberkoek in a German supermarket as well but you really have to search for it. You could try the Edeka or Kaiser first. We are now in Singapore where gemberkoek cannot be found but I found a decent enough substitute would be crystallized ginger and a bit of fruit cake. The gemberkoek is mainly to thicken the gravy as well as to add a bit of flavour.
Hi Duchess, my Girlfriend from Limburg cooks this so so well it truly is "Lekker" and just the thing for a cold winters night, I will send her your recipe, thank you so much for spreading the word ! Regards Sean
Hi Sean,
Thanks for dropping by. Do tell me how it turns out. Winters are just perfect for stews of all sorts!
Hi Dutchess,
Recently had Limburgs zuurvlees in a Maastricht restaurant, and just loved it. The owner deacribed it as a sweet stew and said he used apples to sweeten. Have you tried this? Now I am back in Australia I am keen to try it for winter. Best regards, Margaret

Thanks for dropping by! This is the perfect comfort food for winter. Thanks for the apple tip. I have not tried it but will experiment and see how it goes the next time I do. Did you enjoy your visit to Maastricht? I love that city and would go at least once or twice a month by myself for shopping and a nice lunch. |
