Adding to the documentary … overall: Tokyo – Edo in 1923 was a grand earthquake and whilst rebuilding the venue over the decades Tsukiji became over the decades one of the biggest World Fish Market providing huge service to the world fish food by hard working people. They have daily wholesales fish auction and was clear to learn “most important is the “jouhou” (the information) without the info the fish would just sit there.

Tsukiji is One of the Seven Food Wonders of the World.

Tsukiji has its artisan culture. Was said, there are 10 days in a year when fish taste its best, but each season has its own variety in fish … Spring: brings shellfish … March: is the icefish season … Tune in the Spring are the best in taste. Tuna is all around the season, but during the summer they aren’t so fatty. Tuna live deep in the sea they do not have to struggle on the hook, they aren’t vital because of the food they eat. Summer: Sweetfish started to fish in june and they are caught in the river. Autumm: Typhoon at its best. Scallops arrive at ESqUISSE alive. Winter: more variety in fish and they get more fatter pufferfish – mackerel.

#2 Taste of Traditional Homemade Sweeties – Sweet Cottage Cheese Balls – Túrógombóc

Sweet Cottage Cheese Balls – Túrógombóc

Home made Sweet Cottage Cheese Balls – Túrógombóc

This is One of the Best yummies for to-day … easy to prepare and in minutes they in recognition vanish away!

The Cottage Cheese = Túró is the main ingredient in many Hungarian dishes, both savory, but mainly in sweeties. Túró is often translated as cottage cheese, but it carries alittle resemblance to the watery cottage cheese a.k.a. by Americans. It a fresh, soft curd cheese, similar to farmer’s cheese, in Germany known as quark. The cottage cheese is available throughout Eastern European deli. Just a tip for those over the other side of the Ocean may try to substitue it with a coarse  type of ricotta, but if found at your neighborhood stay with the cottage cheese, it is a yummy treat.

You can eat it as a dessert, but even as a main course after a heavy Hungarian soup.

Now about the Balls – Gombóc … They are large sweet dumplings typically made with flour or can be with potato batter. The Túrógombóc is a lighter and smaller version where the cottage cheese is mixed with semolina, and topping with cinnamon sugar and served with sour cream.

One of the best yummies for to-day … served for 4 persons – Preparing time cca. 310 mins.

Ingredients: 500g cottage cheese, 2 eggs, 200g semolina, 1/2tbs salt and also vanilila sugar, 3tbs sugar, 6tbs breadcrumbs, 2tbs oil.

For the dip sauce: 6 tbs sour cream, 1 tbs caster sugar, 1/2 tbs cinnamon.

The dose may be further increased  served for 8 persons then double the a/m ingredients.

Preparing: Take a big bowl, mash the cottage cheese with a fork. Add the eggs, semolina, sugar, vanilia sugar, salt, mix well together and set aside to rest a bit. The semolina needs cca 20 mins to swell before cooking. In between can prepare the coat for the cottage cheese balls. Take a big frying pan, heat oil in it and add the breadcrumbs, roast until golden brown, stir it as rosting not to burn. As it gets ready then sweeten with sugar. Form balls size with wet hands (not to stick on the hands) a little bigger than a golf ball from the cottage cheese. Place them into a pot with boiling water. They are ready when the balls come up to the top. Filtered through a filter then roll them in the breadcrumbs. Ready to serve with sour cream/cinnamon dip sauce. This is the real traditional Hungarian homemade  Túrógombóc, May try with various fruit sauces as well.

Once you tried it you will be delighted how easy it is to prepare.

Fairy Tale Run RB Leipzig via Atletico Madrid – UEFA Champions League

Less than 10 minutes FlashNews!
We Love Football/Soccer … you name it  … Footy Lovers had an unsuspected game to watch by person and/or through TV broadcasts from the Arena at Lisbon. Those did not have had the chance by any means here’s below shortage update.

Just like a fairy tale run of RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League continued on Thursday night at Lisbon as the German side piped Atletico Madrid 2-1 to qualify for the semi final.

This was the first time RB Leipzig were making it as far as the quarter final and many thought they had gotten to their final bus stop as they would face Atletico Madrid.

Both sides played in the first half, failing to create clear-cut chances, but “things have changed” in the second half when the German team returned with renewed energy and with a clear mission to go in search of the decisive goal.

The German side showed they meant business as they stormed into the lead five minutes into the second half after the first 45 minutes failed to provide any goal.

While it was looking like it was going to be a long night and the game would extend into extra time, both teams looked to the penalty shootout, RB Leipzig midfielder Sabitzer landed a spectacular pass to Angelino Tasende who served Tyler Adams at the edge of the area. Adams kicked and saw the ball deflect into the net in the 88th minute. Adams –  primarily a midfielder – American football player

who plays for RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga since January 2019.  With his goal in the 88th minute scored what proved to be the crucial winning goal.

A word or two cannot be unsaid about Péter Gulácsi  the first Hungarian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for German club RB Leipzig from July, 2015 – June, 2023.

 Péter Gulácsi name is listed in the World’s  top 10 goalkeepers. This is the first time in the history footy having a Hungarian born – goalkeeper serving at the magic net.

Gulacsi been playing previously at several footy clubs. His latest club  German club RB Leipzig from July, 2015 – June, 2023. Gulacsi was the player of the Year 2019 in Hungary. He is also in Hungary’s national team. He is definetely one of the “main actor” in the  match RB Leipzig to beat Atletico Madrid by  2-1 of yesterday’s August, 14. Champions League semifinals.

The RB Leipzig competing in the UEFA Champions League for the 2nd time, stunned Atletico Madrid by result 2-1. This meant for them to enter the tournament’s demi-finals for the first time. RB Leipzig will take on Paris Saint-Germain, who defeated Atalanta on Wednesday. The coming up semifinal match scheduled to be the August 18.

The much talked about Bayern Munich vs Barcelona tie is predicted to be explosive. The game will be played on today on Friday at 9 p.m.

HoneyLoveDay … World Bee Day August, 17. 2020.

There is only life on earth as long as there are bees. Take care of them!

 Indeed bees already have a World Day.

HoneyLoveDay is celebrated since  August, 17, 2019 as the National Honey Bee Day to honor the insect responsible for more than 1/3 of the food we eat from beekeepers, beekeeping clubs and associations, and honey bee enthusiasts from all across the country. Taking this opportunity to celebrate honey bees and recognize their contribution to our everyday lives as a means of protecting this critical species for future generations.

Who has not met the saying … “Sweet as Honey”… but manybe not too many known that the sweet taste of honey is determined by the non-crystallizing fructose, and its flavor  determined by the proportions of essential oils given by the nectars of the various flowers that the bees have collected.

Food for Bees and Food for Humans. It is a product of the nectar of flowers, plant juices transformed by bees. Man has collected honey since ancient times and used it first as a delicacy, later as an important food, and finally as a medicinal product.

It is known by many the consumption and the health effects of honey. Nowonder … honey is rich in vitamins and minerals and is an effective remedy when used both externally and internally. It helps with calcium absorption, increases hemoglobin, treats dietary anemia, in combination with apple cider vinegar has a beneficial effect on inflamed joints, cures all types of infections and respiratory diseases, speeds up the healing of stomach ulcers, and also helps in the healing of allergies. Heart disease (heart failure), gastritis, bronchitis, endocrine disorders (insufficiency), mucositis and immune weakness. The list would be long one, so just to mention a few more “miracals” honey provides instant energy without the harmful effects of sugar, a useful aid in case of insomnia, hay fever, insect bites and infected wounds … no cemicals … a real doctors recept!

In Hungary there are roughly 20,000 beekeepers and about 1.2 million bee families take care of honey production, which means 15-30 thousand tons of honey/year, depending on the weather. Domestic honey consumption averages 90 dkg per capita, while people in Germany consume 1.3 kg and in Greece 1.5 kg. Honey is a storehouse of extremely healthy food, natural antibiotics, vitamins and minerals, so the autumn honey campaign is definitely aimed at increasing domestic honey consumption.

There are several types of honey produced by beekeepers available in Hungary, one of the most popular is the Acacia honey, which is already considered Hungarian, in addition to lime honey and flower honey. Also Beet honey, Chestnut honey, Sunflower honey, Forest honey. Rare but existing Hungarian honeys include: Silkweed, Goldenrod, Wild Tobacco, Facelia, Lavender, Oil Radish, silver fir … Also less known  by the public the  Bee Bread (mixture of pollen and nectar), Bee venom (A special animal product similar to the Viper poison. It is used with great efficacy in medicine for rheumatism, polyarthritis, neuralgia, iris and retinitis. The exact composition of the poison is yet unknown.)

All the honey producers are truly reliable from the Hungarian beekeepers. It is not an easy  mission, their hard-working labor hands and their hearts is included!

Unfortunately, this year’s varied weather … rain, strong winds did not do any good either for pollination, neither for pollen collecting bees either… it is said there will be less out … BUT hope for the Best!

The world bee population is running low, and the lack of useful pollinators would doom strawberries, apples, almonds, tomatoes, peppers, coffee, cocoa, just to name a few Out of our 87 basic crops. Fact is Fact … 3 out of 4 crops depend on pollination. A single bee visits an average of 7,000 flowers a day, and in order for a colony (or man) to receive 1 kg of nutritious honey, one must collect pollen from 4 million flowers. Every year, 1.6 million tonnes of honey are produced only by Western honeybees and 20,000 species of wild bees are known worldwide.

The National Honey Bee Day program started with a simple concept. Bring together beekeepers, bee associations, as well as other interested groups to connect with the communities to advance beekeeping.

All the honey producers are truly reliable from the Hungarian beekeepers. It is not an easy mission, their hard-working labor hands and their hearts is included!

Unfortunately, this year’s varied weather intervened by dense stormy rain, strong winds which did not do any good either for pollination, neither for pollen collecting bees … it is said there will be less honey this year, but honey lovers hope for the Best!
