A stylish lunch – from Lidl and IKEA (!)

by Jeanne Horak on July 22, 2008 14 Comments in In my pantry

Lunch-Lidl-IKEA

So… you’d have to have spent the last few months living under a rock in the desert not to have heard about the credit crunch.

Yes, folks, apart from:

a) the environment going to hell in a handbasket;

b) social values and the nuclear family going to hell in a handbasket;

c)  democracy going to hell in a handbasket;  and

d)  our food supply going to hell in a handbasket,

it appears that the world economy is soon to follow suit.  Seems some folks invested in a very risky part of the market, gambling on the “big risk, big returns” premise.  But as so often happens with gambling… it turned out to be a very, very bad bet and now we are being told that we are on the brink of a global recession.  Jobs are being lost, house prices are tumbling, stock markets are taking a beating… and food prices just keep on rising.

What’s a wannabe gourmet to do?

 

At chez Cooksister, I am pleased to find my lifelong love of leftovers has suddenly come to be viewed as a virtue rather than just stinginess 😉  But you still have to go and buy food.  Which is expensive.  One thing we do is to try and get our fruit and vegetables from the Queens Market, which is not too far from us.  But recently I have also been discovered some rather delicious things in unusual (and reasonably-priced!) places.

 

I have written before about the odd phenomenon that is Lidl.  Or maybe it’s just our local branch that’s always a hothouse of weirdness.  The bizarre selection of random merchandise (raclette grills one week, tents the next, and fishing tackle the next) sitting alongside the food.  The general wariness of the (largely) Baltic states clientele who all seem to be from just outside the EU and permanently looking over their shoulder in case the immigration police should pop in to pick up a raclette grill.  And the general preference for using cardboard boxes for ferrying your groceries around the store rather than a trolley.

 

So at first glance, it’s possibly not the kind of place where you’d go to pick up the ingredients for a chic lunch.  But… surprisingly, you can find some rather good continental goodies there (and it’s also the place where I bought all my English purple sprouting broccoli this season!).  Nick has always loved sauerkraut – even more so when it’s served with some sort of German sausages.  A brief trot around the store revealed that Lidl not only does a nice line in bottled German sauerkraut, but also these dinky little packets of 8-10 bratwurst sausages.  I usually keep the sausages in the freezer and the sauerkraut in the cupboard, so if you drop into our house unnanounced over a weekend and you look as though you need feeding, it’s more than likely that this will be on the menu if I’m feeling lazy.  Grill the sausages, heat the sauerkraut with a few cracked black peppercorns, garnish with sweet wholegrain mustard and voila!

 

And to drink?  Well, for that, you should head over to that well-known gourmet store, erm, IKEA.  Yes, we all know about the meatballs in the chiller cabinet and the delectable Daim sweets.  But lately I’ve been buying the most delicious drinks there.  For your non-alcoholic friends there’s the lingonberry drink on the right.  Think cranberry juice but with more oomph – delicious!  And to serve with the meal?  Forget expensive Alsace wines to serve with your sausages & cabbage and pick up a slab of Kopparberg Swedish pear cider – my latest addiction.  Once you pour it into champagne flutes, your guests will be intrigued by this undiscovered, fruity bubbly – keep them guessing before you reveal the tin.  And at 95p per can, it’s an affordable luxury 🙂

    This posts hits home. My partner came froma working class German family and swear by Lidl and Aldi. I shopped at a Lidl on our recent visit to Sweden. Not bad. Sometimes I even venture to an Aldi. Its great fro plain basics. I stay away from the proceesed junk stuff. You have to fo what you can do. And who knew Ikes yielded such finds. I have purchased a frozen ham, chesses, and all sorts of stuff in their timy market.

    A swear by Aldi & Lidl for their Christmas products. I also love their crinkle cut and paprika crips. I never realised they sold PSB, I certainly have to make sure i can get some there next year when it’s in season.

    I can assure you the weirdness is not unique to your branch of Lidl! After five years of shopping at Aldi and Lidl, I have recently changed to a slightly – but only slightly – more upscale shopping emporium, but I still go back now and then just to taste the weirdness.
    Speaking as an almost German, I can say that your Wurst und Sauerkraut look superbly authentic.

    Food prices here in SA is sky high and with everything else climbing, sadly people have to cut down on food. This is a delicious “cheap” meal. Thx for showing that you guys are also normal…..all your other dishes are always very elaborate.

    I’ve only been coming here a short while – but am pleased to see that you do use the odd tin or two. 🙂
    The Saurkraut looks delicious and much easier than making it at home. I tried to make it with a friend two years ago and had to try three times before I managed something that didn’t go off first & the last lot tasted vile! Wish you’d tell us which brand you bought – or is that not allowed here?
    Thanks again for a super amusing post!

    Just kidding! When I lived in London on a budget you might have caught me buying pots of honey there. Shhh. Don’t tell anyone.
    Sorry Jeanne, I’m with Andrew on this one. 🙂

    Not a fan of either Lidl or Aldi- I have been known to go into the Lidl for weird things like we bought a huge cat scratching post there for 24 euros nearly identical to that sold at our local pet store for 90 euros.
    I too like Ikea’s lingondrink because it has almost as much oomph as real cranberry juice- I find that Cranberry juice sold outside of the US and Canada is just far too sweet- but don’t gorget Ikea for their ginger cookies- they make a great base for a cheese cake, and their polar bread is perfect for finger sandwiches!

    My wife and I were amused by this post. While Lidl is still pretty much a no-go area save for the olive oil that we pick up there every other month, Aldi has been a revelation. Moreso in these tough times lol. Great blog. I blog randomly at http://www.africanaspects.com – do visit when you’re not cooking up a storm. Stay well!

    Courtney – I know – after a while the whole “eat locally/sustainably/ethically” story becomes rather elitist. It shouldn’t be, but it is. I agree that there is some terrifyingly processed stuff at Lidl (never been to an Aldi), but then as I said, also frech British stuff like the PSB that the bigger chains weren’t carrying regularly. IKEA food markets can be a treasure trove – do look out for this pear cider!
    We Are Never Full – I know – it took some suspension of disbelief…! Surprisingly, not only is the food in their restaurant usually pretty good, but the herring, cheese, cripsbread – and cider! – in the food market is excellent. I’d probably stay away from the 99p hot dogs though 😉
    Jules – you are right – their seasonal stuff can be good, and they always seem to have the best selection of frozen game meats. THe PSB was a revelation to me – but every time during the season that we visitied, there is was, from British farms. Crazy.
    Andrew – LOL! CHances of you “popping over” to ours because you were “just passsing by” are pretty slim, given where we both live!! SO don’t worry, for you I will bring out the fatted calf instead of Satan’s excrement 😉
    Dragon – no chance of that! You’re stuck with me… 😉
    Charlotte – so it’s a chain-wide outbreak of weirdness than. Maybe a kink in the space-time continuum or something? But defintely free entertainment. And thrilled to get your almost-German stamp of approval 🙂
    Nina – oh believe me, we’re normal!! This blog is a bit like an iceberg – you only see the small percentage of food that pokes up above the water surface while the scrambled eggs on toast remain submerged 😉
    Justfoodnow – oh, I’m not averse to tins and bottles – I don’t think anybody in full-time employment can afford to be! Have never thought of makign my own sauerkraut as I’d imagine the house would smell vile for days… Can’t remember the brand but if we get some more I’ll let you know.
    Michelle – there are definitely some very guilty pleasures lurking in Lidl… Can’t really argue with their cheap bottles of bourbon either!!
    Katie – oh, tacky it is!! But ours is actually the closest food store to the house, which is the only reason we first went there as an experiment. They have a great selection of fruit juices and frozen game meat – so however tacky the surroundings might be, there is some cool stuff if you look. It’s also the source of the (very inexpensive) Prosecco that I quaff like water on warm summer afternoons…
    Susan – I can image leftovers at your house would be spectacular 🙂
    Jennifer – my point exactly! You wouldn’t want to do your weekly grocery shop at Lidl, but every now and again they have in stock the One Thing You Want and it’s probably cheaper than anywhere else. Agree on the lingonberry juice and the ginger biscuits – and don’t forget those addictive Daim toffees…
    Africanaspects – thanks for stopping by! Hmmm, olive oil from Lidil – must investigate! You see, that’s my point – however little you may like the store, extra virgin olive oil is extra virgin olive oil 😉 Will go and check out your blog soon.

🌷🌷🌷 It’s tulip season in London! Every 🌷🌷🌷 It’s tulip season in London!

Everywhere you look, these long-legged floral supermodels are adding a splash of colour to parks and gardens and I just can’t get enough of them! It’s easy to see how they inspired a collective buying frenzy in 17th Century Holland, called “tulip fever”, but today there are less dramatic ways to enjoy them. Here are a couple of suggestions of where to see them at their best:

🌷 The ultimate tulipalooza is the annual opening of Keukenhof gardens outside Amsterdam where 7 million (!) bulbs burst into life each Spring. This year the gardens are open 24 March-15 May (click on the link in my bio for FAQs and my top tips for visitors)

🌷In London, Kew Gardens always has spectacular displays of tulips; but you can also see excellent and free tulips in most of the Royal Parks such as Regents Park. 

🌷The Hampton Court Palace tulip festival is on until 2 May and the Hever  Castle’s Tulip Celebrations until 24 April - both within easy reach of London.

🌷The Morges Fete de la Tulipe in Switzerland takes place every year against the spectacular backdrop of Lake Geneva - it is on until 8 May this year.

I spotted these spectacular red frilly parrot tulips beside St Paul’s Cathedral yesterday 🌹 Where is the best display of tulips that you have ever seen?

🍒🌸 It’s cherry blossom season! 🍒🌸 T 🍒🌸 It’s cherry blossom season! 🍒🌸

There is no season in London that I love more than cherry blossom season! From March through to April, trees in various parks and gardens in London put on an amazing display of delicate pink and white blossoms - and everything in the city seems a little more magical. This particular tree near St Pauls must be among London’s most photographed, and it’s not hard to see why 💕

Did you know that...

🌸cherry blossoms are Japan’s national flower and are known as Sakura 

🌸In 1910, Japan sent the USA some cherry trees as a goodwill gesture… and the Dept of Agriculture inspectors nearly caused an international incident by burning them as they were carrying insects and diseases! But in 1915 Japan sent more cherry trees that survived the inspectors, and these marked the start of cherry trees in the USA.

🌸 Peak blossom season is usually only two to three weeks in March/April but is hard to predict as the weather and the subspecies of tree influence the timing.

🌸The cherry blossom capital of the  world is Macon, Georgia with 300,000 - 350,000 Yoshino cherry blossom trees.

🌸 There are over 200 different varieties of cherry blossom and some are purely ornamental (meaning they produce no cherries)

Where is your favourite place to see cherry blossoms in London or around the world? Let me know in the comments and happy blossom hunting! 🌸🍒🌸

*NEW RECIPE* Barbecued salmon with blood oranges, *NEW RECIPE* Barbecued salmon with blood oranges, capers and dill. Pretty in pink 💕

[AD] Blood oranges are a small obsession of mine - from blood orange posset to blood orange and halloumi salad to blood orange & Cointreau upside down cake, I am always looking for new ways to make the most of their short season. Barbecuing them with salmon, capers and dill is a perfect match in terms of flavour as well as colour (or you can oven bake the salmon if it's not barbecue weather where you are!)

When @grahambeckuk asked me to suggest some recipes to match their wonderful Graham Beck Brut Rosé NV sparkling wine from South Africa, this was a pairing made in heaven, and wonderfully colour co-ordinated with their silver-pink bubbly. Get the full recipe and find out more about Graham Beck's sparkling wines, made using the same methods as Champagne, on my blog - link in my bio above.

Would you believe me if I told you this is NOT a p Would you believe me if I told you this is NOT a picture of a Moorish palace, a castle or a cathedral? And that you can get to it from central London in under an hour?

This is Crossness Pumping Station @crossnesset , a Grade I listed heritage site and one of London's last remaining magnificent Victorian sewage (!) pumping stations in Abbey Wood near Rainham. 

Did you know that...

💩 You can visit the building on monthly open days - the next one is Sun 20 Feb. Book at www.crossness.org.uk

💩  It was only in 1856, after 3 major cholera outbreaks in 30 years and the Big Stink when the stench of London's sewage finally reached Parliament, that construction of an intercepting sewer system for the city was approved.  The system (parts of which are still in use today) was designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette, Chief Engineer of London's Board of Metropolitan Works at the time.

💩  At Crossness, all London's sewage from south of the river was was raised by 9-12 metres to large reservoirs so that gravity would cause it to flow further east and into the Thames estuary. (Yes, until the 1880s, raw sewage was simply pumped into the Thames!)

💩 The incoming liquid was raised by the four enormous steam driven pumps, built to Joseph Bazalgette's design. The pumps were named Victoria, Prince Consort, Albert Edward, and Alexandra. They are thought to be the largest remaining rotative beam engines in the world, with 52-ton flywheels and 47-ton beams. 

💩 The pumping station was decommissioned and abandoned in the 1950s but declared a listed building in 1970.  Although all 4 beam engines remain in place, they were so damaged that today (thanks to the efforts of the Crossness Engines Trust) only Prince Consort has been restored to working condition and can be seen in action on open days.

💩 The exuberant and colourful wrought ironwork inside is the amazing work of architect Charles Henry Driver. My favourite detail is the fact that the pillars in the central atrium are topped with stylised figs and senna pods... two of nature's greatest natural laxatives 🤣
*NEW RECIPE* Roasted Brussels sprouts with feta ch *NEW RECIPE* Roasted Brussels sprouts with feta cheese, pomegranate and pine nuts

Ever noticed how you are affected by colours? 🌈

Maybe some colours make you agitated and some make you relaxed. Or maybe you find yourself inexplicably attracted to a particular colour (oh, hi teal and aqua!💙). On the basis that all colours have a wavelength, and that those outside the visible spectrum can affect us, it makes sense that the colours we see can affect our mood or even our physiology. Did you know for instance that exposure to red light can increase your blood pressure and heart rate? Are there any colours that you find yourself particularly attracted to or affected by?

The pretty colours of these roasted Brussels sprouts with feta cheese, pomegranate and pine nuts will be the first things that attract you to this dish - but it is the delicious combination of flavours and textures that will keep you coming back for more!

The recipe (and more about how colour affects us mentally and physically) is now live on my blog - click the live link in my profile and remember to like and bookmark this post to see more Cooksister in your Instagram feed ❤️
Perspective: a particular attitude towards or way Perspective: a particular attitude towards or way of regarding something.

Perspective is the one thing that the Covid-19 pandemic has given us plenty of. It has certainly made us re-evaluate what is truly important, and also what we did and didn't enjoy about our lives  before the pandemic and its associated lockdowns. It made me appreciate how much happiness my house, my job, my friends, my own company and my running bring to my life (and how fortunate I am to have all these things). But it also brought home how much I enjoy and miss travel, the theatre, and the luxury of reataurant visits at the drop of a hat. I don't think words can describe my joy at sipping the first coffee purchased from a coffee shop in summer 2020 as lockdown eased. It's the little things...

One of the things I have enjoyed and will not miss as the world creeps back to normality is the absence of crowds in what is usually a crowded city. On the occasions that I have been in central London since the start of the pandemic, streets have been blissfully empty and it has felt as if I were discovering my city anew. This glorious perspective (hah!) of St Paul's Cathedral normally requires a long wait while a queue of tourists and "influencers" ahead of you pose for photos - but on this glorious day last Spring it was almost deserted. I will miss that...

Is there anything you will miss as Covid-19 restrictions start to be lifted?
