Date Cookie and Neeselrode
Hi Stephen,
There was a particular cookie (I think German) that I would like to find though. It was a large chewy cookie, with dates as I recall, and a simple vanilla type frosting on the top. Does it sound familiar? Also, lost my nestlerode?? recipe if you have one.

Fierdin
Hey Stephen ..
Have you ever seen a recipe for Fierdin, or heard anything about it? I have
no idea if that's how it's spelt, but that is how my grandmother pronounced
it. I've done numerous searches on google with multiple spellings tring to
find any info on it. It's very similar to the Dutch aebelskivers, made in
the cast iron pan, but the fierdin has yeast in it whereas the aebelskivers
don't. I've belonged to many German clubs & genealogy groups, but have
never run across anyone who is familiar with the fierdin, made typically at
Christmas. Just curious.
many thanks..

A Ffruit Pastry?
Years ago I had a german recipe
you made the pastry
and then rolled the pastry out on the board and left it flat
and filled it with mixed fruit sprinkled it with sugar
i dont know what it was called i have lost the recipe for it
i am going back about 32years ago
and i have just misplaced it -it was the best sweet pastry i ever tasted after it was cooked
could you help me with this recipe or if you know any one that might be able to help me
oh, i.forgot to put in that when i finished making it
you leave it flat then you.turn the two sides over and the top and bottom of the pastry over as well and put it in the oven for about i.hour or until cooked
could you email me back Joan Dodd

Lima Bean Recipe
Several months ago I wrote requesting a baked lima bean recipe from anyone who was or is located in the Ostfriesland area of Germany from which my Mother came from. I am assuming that her recipe may be one commonly used in that area. I have tried various recipes using dried limas (which she started with) but nothing approaches the fantastic flavor she had in her baked beans. I am repeating my request hoping that someone may recall a particular recipe which I might try. Thank you. William Morell

herring salad
Hello, I am looking for a herring salad recipe that probably originated in Swabia, near the little mountain town of Markgroeningen; it was given to me by Ilse Berta Mechtling, who went to the university in Stuttgart and came to this country as a Fulbright scholar in the late 1950s or early 1960s.
The recipe from Ils does not call for veal, as does Irma Rombauer in her 1950 Joy of Cooking. Beets are optional, as I recall. I would appreciate any help you can give.

oxtail soup
When I was stationed in Germany with the British army I became very fond of the oxtail soup served in many of the local gasthof. Could you tell me where I can get the recipe.
I have now tried all the schnitzels in your newsletter, they are really tasty.
best regards

Herring Salad
I would dearly love a recipe for Herring Salad as my Mom made it for
years. She is now deceased and I never asked for the recipe. Got all the
others, Springerle, Hefekranz, Spritzgebak, Roladen, Sauerbraten ohne
Gingersnaps. I do remember something about Milch Herring. Where do I
find that and what is it? She also added pickles, left over roast veal
(?), potatoes, apples, onions und was noch? We always had this for New
Years Eve. Frohliche Weihnachten und Danke Schon.

Bami
When I lived in Germany I had a little take-out restaurant called frittenbude, where people get home cooked fast food meals. There I served also the Schnitzels which you had in your last newsletter.
But now my question is I served a dish there called BAMI and it is a Holland dish not a German one. I try to buy them over the Internet but either it is to expensive or they don't ship it to the UNITED STATES.
here is what I can tell you about it and I tried to make my own but it didn't worked out so far.
it is a slice looking breaded thing with noodles and beef and vegetables inside.you deep fry them and then you can eat it.If you have an idea how to make them and get the recipe for it that would be great.
This is a challenge,
love your work
thanks a lot
