27.04.2021 **Because of the crisis at her house, Kalyn and I swapped the weeks for the WHB recaps. Hardly Kalyn and I had discussed the switch in hosting the Weekend Herb Blogging I got the first mail. I post the entries in order of receiving.
Thanks to all participants for the great entries. I tried my best with the pictures, but sometimes the blogger hosted pictures make a little trouble and are not always available. For those with a very slow dial-up I made a picture-free recap.
 |
Asha from Aroma! uses scallions or also known as green onions for her French Onion Soup with Scallions. It sounds like a really great meal. |
| Sra from when my soup came alive writes about Curry Leaves and tells us how to make a crush to keep it. I’ve to look for the next Indian grocery in my area. |  |
 |
Pebbles at Mele Cotte blogs about the glory of cabbage and how to get children to eat their cabbage with a Green Cabbage Casserole . I agree to it. |
| Gattina from Kitchen Unplugged cooked a delicious looking Baked Lychee Risotto Pudding. Gattina thinks lychees tastes like rose water, although she never tasted it. I don’t agree: Lychees taste like lychees, only a hint of roses in the aftertaste. |  |
 01.10.2025 ** |
Glenna from A FRIDGE FULL OF FOOD… 01.10.2025 ** uses bay leaf and fresh thyme for the sauce of her birthday meal: Strip steaks with a dollop of goat cheese, and a thyme, mushroom, merlot sauce. 01.10.2025 ** |
| Sherry from What Did You Eat 01.10.2025 ** also uses bay leaf and thyme for herRoasted Salmon with Lentils and Bacon 01.10.2025 **. A delicious combination of Puy lentils and bay leaf, a combination I am familar with. |  01.10.2025 ** |
 |
Astrid at Paulchens Foodblog 08.07.2020 ** presents gorgeous looking sweet apple parcels with 08.07.2020 ** cinnamon & galangal for her colleagues at work. I am tempted to change my job for this dessert ;-). |
| Mandira from Ahaar blogs about the ancient grain quinoa and uses it for Oven Poached Sea Bass with Quinoa Pilaf. It’s the first time she poached fish and I think it’s a great success. |  |
 |
Burcu from almost turkish recipes comes with Roasted Beet Soup (Firinlanmis Pancar Çorbasi). The stalks and the root of beets are used for this soup, which has a fantastic colour. The herb dill is a must for this soup. |
| Angelina from My Kitchen: My Laboratory uses Oregano as the main ingredient for her Cheese Cookies made of a oregano flavoured pastry and decorated with – guess what – oregano. |  |
 |
Kalyn from Kalyn’s Kitchen, the creator of this event 27.04.2021 **, combines some ingredients in her crockpot added rosemary and presents a Mediterannean Beef Stew with Rosemary. I think this dish sounds like comfort food after managing a big crises like this. |
| Ramya from Cascading Flavors blogs about thyme and bakes thyme biscuits at http://culinarygems.blogspot.com/2007/02/thyme-biscuits.html. Notice sometimes the blog is closed. | |
| Katie from Thyme for Cooking uses dried basil, thyme and oregano for her Baked Chicken Breasts with Creamy Balsamic Sauce 26.09.2023 **. Although she uses dried herbs, Katie likes to finish dishes with a couple of frozen herb cubes – just to remind herself and us that spring will come, eventually. |  |
 |
Anna from Morsels & Musings focuses on wakame, an edible kelp and prepared a chasoba salad with miso dressing. I have to admit, that I’ve never eaten kelps. |
| Helene from Neues aus der Küche uses sage for her Champignon Cakes . These are delicious looking muffins topped with button mushrooms. |  |
 |
Sue from Coffee & Cornbread flavours rice with cilantro, onions, shallots, lime juice, olive oil and jalapeno and prepared Spicy Asian Shrimps. The dish gets an Asian style with the marinated shrimps. |
| yich from simcooks (www.simcooks.com/375/dried-chicken-curry-indonesian-style/ now defunct) uses her new mortar and pestle to mix chillies, shallots, candlenuts and garlic to make a smooth paste. Then she sautés the paste, adds lemongras and other flavours and ends with Dried Chicken Curry (Indonesian Style). |  |
 |
Haalo from Cook (almost) anything …blogs about the biggest herb in the world: bananas and presents Rum Bananas. Haalo can buy local grown bananas! What a difference in taste to Uncle Tuca or Mrs Chiquita. |
| Anh from Food Lover’s Journey21.09.2018** tells us about celebrating the Vietnamese New Year Tết. A must: Sweet Red Glutinous Rice – Xôi Gấc21.09.2018**. The beautiful red color of this dish originates from a Vietnamese fruit called Gấc from the family Momordica. It is also a good source of vitamin C. |  21.09.2018** |
 |
Ed from Tomato writes about cabbage turnip or kohlrabi. He mentions that the size of kohlrabi is a quarter of the first artificial satellite sent into the earth’s orbit. Ed uses kohlrabi to make a salad for this event with homemade mayonnaise and serves the salad with a rare griddled tuna steak ** 30.05.2025. Stay tuned for another day he brings the cabbage turnip and grapefruit together in perfect harmony. |
| Rinku from Cooking in Westchester 21.09.2018** not only sent me a lovely valentine’s card, she joins the Weekend Herb Blogging with Brocolli and Black Beans with Lime 21.09.2018**. She likes lime more than lemon and the warm salad looks very delicious. |  |
 |
Virginie from Absolutely Green uses peanuts and olive oil to bake Peanut & Olive oil Cookies A vegan bake I’d like to duplicate. |
| Freya from Writing At The Kitchentable combines beetroot, parsley, onions, gherkins, anchovies and egg yolk to a Swedish delicacy called Sologa or ‚Suns Eye‘. I think that’s the right name for it. It takes at least 20 minutes to arrange, but it’s worth the effort. |  |
| Andrea from Buy Organic** tells us how easy it is to prepare an organic pizza base** on your own. I think she’s right, just a little organic flour, water, yeast, sugar, olive oil and for the flavour some dried herbs like oregano and basil. That’s all. | |
 |
Pookah from What’s Cooking in Carolina cooks a Spicy Lentil Soup in Carolina. A beautiful orange to red coloured soup decorated with fresh cilantro. It seems we have the lentil WHB this week. |
| And at the end my own entry: I combined a lentil salad – flavoured with bay leaf and thyme – with bratwurst to Bratwurst with leeks & lentils |  . |

oh, was die curryblätter angeht hatte ich nach einem eintrag von petra von chili und ciabatta schonmal recherchiert. frische sind wohl sehr schwer zu bekommen hierzulande.
beste möglichkeit meines wissens: direkt ein pflänzchen beziehen, im augenblick sind wieder bestellungen möglich beim herrn rühlemann (unter c, c-allgemein). ** 01.01.2024
liebe grüße, polly

Great round up.I likes the simplicity.thanks a lot.
Hallo Ulrike!
Danke für die tolle Arbeit!! Die Beiträge sind super und du hast sie so ansprechend präsentiert. Hut ab!! :))
Ulrike,
Thanks for taking up your extra time in posting our photos, and your kind word in introducing my entry. Your round-up is fabulous!
Your bratwurst and leeks are two of my favorite food, the recipe looks simple yet delicious!
Nice, neat round-up!
Nice Job!
Very nice job with all the photos. I have to go teach school now (after all, they *are* paying me, but when I get home I will read them all.
Wonderful
What a wonderful lineup!
I hope I can get around to try them all!
Thanks so much for the round-up–the entries all look delicious!
danke ulrike,
für die tolle zusammenfassung!
eine sehr illustre runde mit vielen leckeren rezepten. ich hab leider immer noch nicht alle besucht.
What a great re-cap. What a job getting all of the pictures. I shall enjoy reading it all!
Very interesting entries this week
Once again, a lot of interesting entries. There were quite a few I had not seen during the week. I couldn’t leave comments for Ramya, Rinku or Freya. (I hate it when that happens. For some reason I’ve never been able to leave a comment for Rinku, the window doesn’t open correctly for me although I can see comments from others. I hope people don’t think I’m ignoring them! Or maybe no one even notices, who knows?
Thanks again for hosting.
I really like the way you rounded up the posts with the thumbnail pictures and a summary next to it. It makes reading the summary so easy. Thanks!
