I had an above average number of favourite meals d I had an above average number of favourite meals during my time in SalzburgerLand, and this was right near the top of them. Schöpsernes is a lamb dish from the Lungau region that’s prepared and eaten during what’s known in Austria as the fifth season - harvest festival. It’s traditionally made with the first animal slaughtered once a herd has been brought down from their summer in the alpine pastures. A whole lamb is butchered and roasted with garlic and salt and served with roast potatoes, cabbage salad with caraway and speck, a sort of bread sauce with whipped cream and horseradish (a revelation!!), and lingonberry sauce. Schöpsernes used to be a celebratory family meal eaten once a year, but today, it’s available throughout harvest festival season in restaurants all over the region. And it is so very, very good; the combination of its individual flavours far greater than the sum of its parts. I’m going to find out how to make that bread sauce, and then I’m getting myself a lamb and we’re celebrating harvest festival here in Rheinhessen 😂 . [I tried this on assignment for @foodandtraveled courtesy of @tourismuslungausalzburgerland, so I believe this somehow probably counts as an #ad.]
These two Brettljausen - a meal/snack of bread, ch These two Brettljausen - a meal/snack of bread, cheese and cold cuts - were a precursor to the Kaiserschmarrn I posted a couple of weeks ago. @utagleiser_photography and I were up a mountain at an alpine hut prepping for a short hike (to, as it turned out, another alpine hut for coffee and apple strudel) and as if the food and the views alone weren’t enough - the butter and cheese are made on site with the milk from the cows that have been brought up to the pastures for the summer and dear god, they’re delicious - there were MARMOTS lounging around in the grass. 10/10 all round, would do again immediately 👌 .
