Netherlands Cooking Recipes

The Kingdom of the Netherlands was formed in 1815. In 1830 Belgium seceded and formed a separate kingdom. The Netherlands remained neutral in World War I but suffered a brutal invasion and occupation by Germany in World War II. A modern, industrialized nation, the Netherlands is also a large exporter of agricultural products. The country was a founding member of NATO and the EC, and participated in the introduction of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) in 1999.

The Netherlands is slightly less than twice the size of New Jersey. The climate is temperate with cool summers and mild winters.

Cooking Recipes


Banketstaaf - Snack

Cooking Recipes Ingredients:
3 pkgs Almond Spice Puff dough
1 raw egg

Cooking Recipes Directions
Knead raw egg through almond paste. Set a little bit aside to glaze pastry.
Roll out dough in long narrow shape. Do the same with almond paste. Put almond paste on dough and wrap dough around it. Close on the side with some water or egg white. Glaze top with remaining egg. Bake for approximately 30 minutes at 350°F. Garnish with red and green candied cherries.


Dutch Apple Pie - Dessert

Cooking Recipes Ingredients:
1 pound flour
1/2 pound butter
1/2 pound sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 pinch of salt
2 eggs
2 pounds of apples
1 portion of sliced white almonds
some currants of sultanas (raisins of the pale white or yellow sultana grape)
lemon juice (from 1 or 2 lemons)
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of cloves

Cooking Recipes Directions
Peel, cut, slice and dice the apples. Put lemon juice over them to prevent from turning brown. Mix with half of the sugar, with almonds, currants/sultanas, cinnamon and cloves and leave it alone for some time. Take the rest of the sugar, 1 egg and most of the butter and mix it with a fork. Then mix the flour, baking soda and salt in, bit by bit until you cannot mix in any more flour (dough should have tendency to form cracks and break into pieces, but still be one coherent lump of dough). Butter a spring-form pan. Take half of the dough and spread it over the bottom (evenly). Take half of the rest of the dough and spread it over the side (also evenly) up to half the height of the spring-form. Put in the apple and almond mix, and push it down in the dough as far as possible. Make little snake-like dough things from the rest of the dough, and put them zig-zag over the pie. Beat the last egg and spread it over the pie.
Bake in the oven at 375°F for 60-75 minutes. Serve with whipped or ice-cream.
