Why drink natural wine - I am often asked. Because it's full of life (both literally and figuratively), every bottle is unique, and you know that it was produced by people who care for the vineyard, the grapes, the process itself, the terroir, the environment and the animals around. I know that it was produced by people who did not resort to any sort of manipulation and chemicals to obtain a consistent result throughout the years - which is why they put their heart and soul into the vinification process, the grapes were not sprayed with pesticides and other chemicals that are both bad for us and bad for the ecosystem. This bottle from @c__laus that I captured at @weinskandal was the perfect hello to spring: light, fruity, funky and with a colour that perfectly matched my tulips too. 🌷🍷 97 6
¡Viva la revolucíon! How many of you have a weekly food plan? I used to do it religiously before I placed my supermarket order back in my Edinburgh days. Then I became really chaotic and I realised that I would buy ingredients and not use them in time and throw them away. Food waste is one of the worst things one can do, in my opinion. So I instated a weekly food plan again, but rather than going to the market with my plan and list, I buy whatever looks nice and make a plan afterwards. 100 3
Food has the amazing power to bring people together. That is exactly what @marion_j_aus_simmering and @lukas_mraz have been doing every Saturday since December at @woracziczky_gasthaus. This has become a tradition, one that makes lockdown easier, for sure. Today's homemade Käsekrainer hot dog, with homemade buns, mayo and Jerusalem artichoke chips. 👌 Until next Saturday! 94 0
Gorgonzola, gooey, delicious, mildly spicy, salty, delicious gorgonzola. Made in the town of Gorgonzola, near Milan, since (according to some) 800-something AD. I get mine on Saturdays at Karmelitermarkt, then love to have it as a pizza topping, with kimchi. How do you like you gorgonzola? 70 12
A bit of sun and an end of winter kind of feeling - which was abruptly ended by some dark clouds, a bit of rain and, because why not, a few hours of intense snow. 69 0
Saturdays are my favourite days not not only because they're Saturday, but because they're the only day when I voluntarily and happily wake up early and get about a million things done. You've probably figured out that lazing around is my least favourite activity. 🙈 Bike ride, market stroll, long walk, capturing gourmet goodies here and there, and heading for the one and only, king of burgers in Vienna, @lukas_mraz's korean fried chicken burger at @woracziczky_gasthaus, where @marion_j_aus_simmering always greets us with a big smile. This burger has been my Saturday highlight, and I will miss it greatly, until it's back! 😁 122 10
