In Italian, French, German and Mexican cuisine there is a sauce of herbs, also known as the "green" sauce. It is most similar to soft chopped salad. Wikipedia gives us this information about it: the basic recipe came from, probably from the Middle East and has an age of at least 2 000 years. Roman legionaries brought it to Italy, where he fell in France and Germany. The German version of the sauce uses a different blend of herbs as Mediterranean herbs in Germany at that time it was hard getting it. Try to cook it at home.

The sauce of honey and balsamic vinegarSauce, which I will mention below, I tried it in a tiny café-restaurant at the foot of Montserrat mountain, Spain. Was advent and I was questioned (read: tortured) the waiter what is in each dish to determine if there are animal products.

In the end, I chose the salad of fresh leaves, boldly reasoning that it can't be anything animal, and fish fillet. At the time of ordering the waiter something was trying to tell me about the unusual sauce, which were present in both dishes, but I shrugged him off, only specifying whether it's eggs and sour cream. And for good reason. It was necessary to talk in more detail about the sauce, but the moment was lost. Because filed the recipe below can be safely assumed peeped in a nameless restaurant but the proportions in this it my.

So, mind the sauce resembles a thick black warm caramel. When solidification sticks to your teeth, then honey in it. Hence the ratio of ingredients. If you don't like its taste. Sauce to use when serving salads, fish. You can safely use when making vegetable dishes and cereals.

 Brittle homemadeGirlfriend gave me a gift bag with cookies (as I originally thought). It was very tasty, and at the first opportunity, I sincerely thanked her for the treat. Only in conversation it became clear that the bag wasn't a cookie, and peanut brittle. In my memory preserved memories of peanut brittle as monolithic heavy plate of very sweet caramel that firmly imbedded peeled sunflower seeds. Girlfriend also gave me pretty roundels (in the form of biscuits, cookies) from sunflower seeds, sesame seeds and something else beyond description. But the main and distinctive characteristic was the fact that the miracle in the bag was not cloyingly sweet, there was no signs of a terrible caramel monolith.
