Berry & mushroom season

The most beautiful culinary time

Every year, around the beginning of August, it starts … depending on the weather, the chanterelles, porcini mushrooms and cranberries (blueberries) sprout from the ground. It must be something like a primal urge, because it’s so much fun looking for mushrooms and berries. They usually grow under trees or in damp places …

Yesterday was the day again and we found a nice portion and turned it into a delicious mushroom goulash today.

A dream and, above all, it tastes twice as good with your own yield. 😋🍄

The recipe is relatively variable and uncomplicated, we try to avoid wheat…therefore with spelt dumplings (Dinkelspätzle)

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion
  • Chanterelles
  • Paprika powder
  • Beef soup
  • Crème fraîche
  • 330 g plain flour (wheat or spelt)
  • 4 eggs
  • 130 ml milk
  • a little oil or butter melted
  • Salt & pepper

Preparation GUlasch

  • Cut an onion into small cubes and fry in butter or oil
  • Add the chanterelles and reduce the liquid until it is almost gone
  • then add sweet paprika powder and pour in beef stock
  • Thicken with crème fraîche or vegan alternative
  • and finally season with salt and pepper to taste

I like to add some lovage and fresh parsley.

Preparation Nockerl | Spätzle:

Mix everything together and press through a sieve into boiling water, cook until the dumplings float to the top and then skim off or strain … and finally toss in butter!

Relaxed Christmas time in the Dorfchalets

“At the beginning of December, all ski resorts open and you can make your first turns on the slopes as you please. As there are no vacations yet, the slopes are relatively empty and nothing stands in the way of the ultimate skiing fun. Then off to the Tauernspa, as admission to the sauna and water world is included once per day and person in your stay in the village chalets. Here you can revitalize your tired bones and recover from the day’s skiing to be fit again for the next adventure.
