Hamburger alla Bismarck

Hamburger alla Bismark

Hamburger alla Bismarck.
Un ottimo hamburger di manzo, appoggiato su una fettina di pane in cassetta con una fetta di bacon ed un uovo all’occhio di bue.
A dire la verità non sono sicuro che questo sia il nome ufficiale ma comunque, ogni cibo cotto e servito con un uovo fritto sopra (bistecca in primis ma anche la piazza è molto comune) si sente chiamare alla Bismarck dal nome di Otto Von, il primo cancelliere dell’Impero tedesco.
Facile da preparare e molto soddisfacente.
A voi piace?

Non ci sono molte informazioni precise sulle origini della “bistecca alla Bismarck”, la fetta di carne che viene servita coperta da un uovo fritto. Pare che Bismarck fosse un grande amante delle carni rosse e che fosse altrettanto ghiotto di uova.

Bun thit nuong: grilled pork with noodles

Bun thit nuong: maiale grigliato con noodles

Bun thit nuong: grilled pork with noodles.
A very typical cold dish of Vietnam with rice noodles and pork.
The dish is very simple and garnished with some sweet and sour vegetables and some toasted peanuts.
Good for my taste too and if it were hot it would be even better for me!
I don't remember the place where I tasted this dish and, since it is not typical of a particular region, it doesn't make me remember where I was.

Vietnamese cuisine seeks to combine fragrances, flavors and colors, based on the philosophy of the five elements. Many dishes contain the 5 basic flavors: spicy, sour, bitter, salty and sweet, which correspond to the five organs: gallbladder, small intestine, large intestine, stomach and urinary bladder.

A succulent cut blood orange

Arancia rossa tagliata

A succulent cut blood orange.
It is one of the most common fruits in the world, by now, but in Italy there are still some excellent ones.
Thanks to the forced stay-at-home period a few months ago, I indulged in macro photography.
In these photos, especially in the second one, you can clearly see this orange that I cut (to make a fresh juice).
The thing that I like most in the photo, of this beautiful cut blood orange and that I want to share with you, are the small orange cells right in the outermost part of the peel that I believe contain the scented essential oils of this splendid fruit.

Prepare the garlic sauté in a pan

Soffritto di aglio in padella

Prepare the garlic soffritto in a pan.
In many Italian culinary preparations (but not only) we start from here.
In this case the preparation was functional to the preparation of a dish of pasta aglio e olio whose two main ingredients you can see here in the photo.
Leave the garlic to fry lightly for a couple of minutes and that's it. I could probably cut it a little finer but leaving it like this, just a little crushed, I can then remove it from the finished dish.
Just be careful not to burn it otherwise it will no longer be good (and probably also bad for your health).

Do you use garlic a lot in cooking?

Obviously there are many sites online that explain how to make the perfect soffritto: finedininglovers.it or scattigolosi.com or even the classic giallozafferano.it.

Homemade garlic and oil pasta

Pasta aglio e olio

Pasta aglio e olio prepared at home.
This type of pasta, among the simplest to prepare, has recently become one of my favorites.
Even if the most classic is with the addition of chili pepper, I prefer it like this, not spicy (even if I can stand it a little "hot"), also because I don't have chili peppers at home...
I must admit, and the true lovers of this preparation will hate me, that I added a little grated cheese at the end, but I avoided putting it in the photo.
Other ingredients that are normally added are parsley and anchovy, but I don't like it and, at the moment, I don't have it at home!

Do you like it? Spicy or not? With grated cheese or not?

Crab and Noodle Soup in Vietnam

Zuppa di granchio e noodles dall'alto

Crab soup and noodles in Vietnam.
In Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, you must eat crab and especially the soup.
This is the same dish I have already posted another time, only the photo changes.
This one is made with the meat of the crab claws cooked in a very tasty broth (perhaps thanks to the glutamate) and very thick rice noodles.
I must say that we have also tasted it in other places but there was practically no trace of crab.
Very good!

Crabs in particular are equipped with a robust carapace and two powerful claws, therefore they use four pairs of limbs for movement and claws for catching, defending themselves and feeding. The abdomen is folded vertically and is therefore hidden. Many species are nocturnal, when the presence of potential predators is lower; the diet varies from species to species and includes animals, plants, carcasses.

Bún thang in Vietnam, a meat and egg dish

Bun ngang in Vietnam

Bún thang in Vietnam, a dish made with meat and eggs.
Another delicious Vietnamese dish made with noodles, meat and eggs.
To tell the truth, there are more dishes in the photo, which I think I've already written separate posts about, but the one I ate was the one in the foreground.
Rice noodles, in broth, with meat (what I've heard called Vietnamese mortadella) and eggs (like an omelette cut into fettuccine).
It wasn't bad, if I remember correctly!

Banh Cuon Hanoi

Banh Cuon Hanoi

Banh Cuon Hanoi.
Non riesco piu’ a ricordare molto di questo piatto ordinato ad Hanoi. Sono dei fogli di pasta di riso conditi con dei gamberetti essiccati.
Cercando su internet ho trovato che questo piatto sembra un pochino influenzato dalla cucina francese in quanto questi fogli sottili ricordano le crepe francesi.
Di solito si trovano come rotolini o involtini (rolls) con all’interno carne e funghi.
Accompagnati normalmente con salsa di pesce ed erbe.
Come dice il nome stesso questo piatto era di hanoi, nel Nord del Vietnam.

Grilled fish in Vietnam

Pesce alla griglia in Vietnam

Grilled fish in Vietnam.
A mix of Vietnamese cuisine with Japanese style preparation, with the grill at the table.
To tell the truth, octopus is very popular in Vietnam but self-service preparation is something that comes from Japan (or perhaps from Korea where I had already seen it several years ago).
In the middle of the table there is a gas grill; they light it for you and you or the waiter puts what you ordered on it.
Fish or meat, whatever.
Then, I don't know if it was because the place wasn't full, the waitress came by every now and then to check on the cooking.
A little hard but still appreciable for the taste. Slightly spicy, everything is in Vietnam, but acceptable even for me who am not a regular fan and consumer. Then, if you want, they always bring more to add as much as you want!
