Weekend moments: Food Festival 2013 #2

Som sagt blev vi "nødt" til at tage afsted til Food Festival søndag også. Det var årets sidste sommerdag og vi sørgede for at nyde den med masser af lækre smagsprøver - og en halvdyr hotdog. Der var DM i hotdog og skønhederne som I ser ovenfor kostede en 50'er stykket - men så gik overskuddet også til velgørenhed og de smagte virkelig godt. Jeg fik en, som var produceret af søde mennesker fra Esbjerg. Det kunne jo ikke være anderledes og jeg fik lidt hjemve, når jeg tænkte på at brødet var bagt i Nørregade i den bager, som min farmor købte brød hos.

As I told you we "had" to go to the Food Festival again on Sunday. It was probably the last day of summer and we enjoyed it outside with a lot of great tastings - and quite expensive hotdogs. The Food Festival hosted the Danish Championship in hotdog making and the profits was given to charity. They were really nice and mine was made by people and with products from the area I grew up in and I was quite homesick when I ate it - the bread came from the baker my grandmother used to buy bread from. 

Vi fik vildt mange gode smagsprøver - i den store skål er muslinger kogt i æblomost. I de to små er der
røgede muslinger, marineret i henholdsvis mango/chili og øl.
We had so many great tastings - the big portion were mussels boiled with apple juice. The little
ones were smoked mussels marinated in chili/mango and beer.

Der var også DM i hø om søndagen - her er der blandt andet lam med hø, hø-mayo, kartoffel kogt i vand med hø,
hø-ost og hø-is. Jeg var ikke vildt glad for isen (det var min kæreste til gengæld), men bortset fra den smagte det dejligt.
Sunday was also the day for the national championsship in hay. Here we have lamb with hay, hay-mayo,
potato boiled in water with hay in it, hay-cheese and hay-icecream. I wasn't a fan of the icecram (but my
boyfriend was), but the rest was good! 

Sønderjysk tapas med blodpølse, æble, lokale oste, chokolade og "gode råd".
Tapas inspired by southern Jutland - black pudding, apple, local cheese, chocolate and the cake called
"good advices".

Vi smagte også på en masse gode danske drikke - her er æble-cider.
We tasted a lot of nice Danish drinks - here's apple cider.

En af mine favoritter på festivallen var denne softice lavet på skyr med rødbedemarengs på toppen. Den smagte
simpelthen så dejligt!
One of my favourite things at the festival was this softice made from "Skyr" with beetroot meringue on top.
It was so good!

Vi følte os inspirerede og glade (og mætte), da vi gik fra festivallen. Og vi glæder os allerede til næste år. Hvad har I lavet i weekenden?

We felt inspired and happy (and full) when we went home. And we're already looking forward to next year. What did you do this weekend?
