FOOD

My favorite food

I like Italian cuisine, so my favorite food is pasta with sauces - cheese, tomato. And the most important ingrediences are spices and herbes. It gives to the food extraordinary taste and makes the food unique. It is healthy, tasty and easy to prepare.

My favorite Czech food + recipe 

My favorite Czech food is definitely not pork with dumplings and sauerkraut. More I am into the sweet food. So my favorite czech food could be sweet dumplings with blueberries or strawberries.

Ingredients:

  • 300 g medium ground floor
  • 125 ml milk
  • 40 g butter
  • an egg
  • 250 g curd
For filling you need a fruit - blueberries or strawberries.
For sauce you need icing sugar and curd

Recipe:

From flour, milk, butter, egg and curd you'll make dough. It should be soft. From the dough you'll cut pieces and fill the pieces with fruits. Then you'll make dumplings. Try the dumplings have a ball shape. Put the dumplings into a pot with lightly salt water. Cook it for 8 minutes. Then mix the curd and icing sugar. Cover the cooked dumplings with sauce you've made.

My favorite drink

My favorite drink is juice made from fresh fruit. Especially orange juice.

Typical Czech cuisine and table manners

Czech cuisine is mostly unhealthy. Like I wrote before, it is for example pork with dumplings and sauerkraut. Or it could be sirloin sauce. We have also special soup. It is tripe soup. Traditional sweet meat is bread and butter pudding with apples and creamy cheese. For a snack you can eat a yeast bun with different filling, for example curd, plum jam or poppy. If you're thirsty, there's a drink for you - beer. How surprising.
Do we have in the Czech Republic typical table manners? I think we just eat like humans. We sit around the table, eat from plates with knife and fork. Usually, we converse.

I would never eat and drink

You'll never make me eat mushrooms. I hated it even in my childhood. And you'll never give me a good reason why to eat it.
And I would never drink beer. Not in my age. Maybe when I will be older, I will love the taste of it.

My speciality - Chocolate Muffins


Ingredience:

  • 1 and half mug of medium groung floor
  • 1 pack of baking powder
  • half mug of sugar
  • an egg
  • 1 pack of vanilla sugar
  • 5 spoons of oil
  • 1 mug of milk
  • chocolate pieces
  • nuts

Recipe:

Mix all of the ingredience in the mixing bowl. Start with dry ingredience then add everything liquid. Make a dough. At the end add in the dough chocolate pieces and nuts. Prepare a baking form for muffins and put the dough into it. Put it in the baking owen for about 30 minutes and bake it for 180 degrees.


For dinner I'd like to invite my family. Because I know they would eat it and have no comments to it. My mum would be happy that she didn't have to cook.
Or I would invite my friends, especially Lucka - my best girl friend or Janek my best boy friend. I know that I would enjoy the meal with them. They can make me laugh.
The third person would probably be someone famous. I can imagine having dinner with Adele. That would be really nice!
