Hello there,
It has been a long hot summer and I am glad things are cooling off.
I to bring in the Fall with recipes that showcase fresh fruit.
Have you ever made a Kuchen? This is a German word for cake.
This one is very enchanting, especially for many is the Plum kuchen, because my grandmother made this always when the Italian plums fell from the trees like rain.
This always says Autumn to me. But also apples and peaches or nectarines are also
right up there with my fav's!
Some people say KOO-ken and some say KOO-gan
If someone asks "What is German cuisine like, you could say that kuchen
is definitely one of our beloved and regularly made desserts for after a meal or coffee time.
Though there are many different fillings, crusts and shapes that you can use to make a kuchen , for the most part it is like a sweet dough rather than a tender cake batter and a topping of fruit , fruit and custard or sometimes just a sweetened crumb topping like a coffee cake.
