Some Dutch Catering to Remember

Some secrets that Gerda, Mark’s Mother served.

Bitterballen

Bitterballen (plural of bitterbal) are a Dutch meat-based snack, typically containing a mixture of beef or veal (minced or chopped), beef broth, butter, flour for thickening, parsley, salt and pepper, resulting in a thick roux. More

Kroket

A croquette is a small breadcrumbed fried food roll containing, usually as main ingredients, mashed potatoes or ground meat (veal, beef, chicken, or turkey), shellfish, fish, cheese, vegetables, and mixed with béchamel orbrown sauce,[1] and soaked white bread, egg, onion, spices and herbs,wine, milk, beer, or any of the combination thereof, sometimes with a filling, e.g. sautéed onions, mushrooms, or boiled eggs (Scotch eggs). The croquette is usually shaped into a cylinder, disk, or oval shape, and thendeep-fried. The croquette (from the French croquer, “to crunch”) gained worldwide popularity, both as a delicacy and as a fast food. More

Satésaus

Satay (/ˈsæt/, /ˈsɑːt/ sah-tay), modern Indonesian and Malay spelling ofsate, is a dish of seasoned, skewered and grilled meat, served with a sauce.[1] Satay may consist of diced or sliced chicken, goat, mutton, beef,pork, fish, other meats, or tofu; the more authentic version uses skewers from the midrib of the coconut palm frond, although bamboo skewers are often used. These are grilled or barbecued over a wood or charcoal fire, then served with various spicy seasonings. More

Preparations on site…

We’ve arrived in Almelo at 5 o’clock, drank some shultenbrau, and then started organising.. We installed the CD32, folded the magazines (online tomorrow at three!), shove some tables around and looked at the drawing pots…And tested the local cuisine.

Oh and we made all the obvious jokes… from onions to shultenbrau…
