EDITORIAL

Dear readers, lets take a moment to be proud of ourselves! For we have just (about) made it! As I sit here writing these lines, the strict health measures are just being eased and in many other European countries even lifted completely, giving a sense of hope and optimism despite the grey winter weather. It has been exactly two years since we all took deliberate “ cover” to protect ourselves and each other from that blasted virus. They have been two long years, with ups and downs, casualties and losses, insights and reorientations, but now at last we can – quite literally – breathe a sigh of relief and make plans for the future again. Before long spring will arrive and hopefully it will be one worthy of its name! The first blossoms are starting to show, the geese are returning and the sorrow of the “dark” years will soon be nothing but a memory. At long last we will be able to do things with family and friends again, visit and invite each other, go on holiday and simply enjoy life without any restrictions! After all, the past years have taught us that it truly is the simple things in life that are important. We here at KACHEN have been grateful for being by your side for better or for worse, with advice and support (and lots of tips and delicious recipes), and so we are pleased that our initiatives, such as the TastyBox, have also been a tremendous success.

more beautiful content for our younger audience in the future. They are more than just our readers of tomorrow, they are the ones who – rightfully – hold us accountable, because it’ s their futures that are at stake if we as adults do not manage to leave the planet in a better state than we found it. So many of them are highly motivated and committed, and we can certainly take a leaf out of their book! So feel free to take a look at our section on “Sustainability” with lots of tips on how you can do your part to make the world a better place. And to make sure you don’t miss out on the usual culinary delights, we have over 60 recipes for you in this issue, as well as a new series on trendy local bars and their signature cocktails. So, off we go into spring, with our sights set on all the good things that await us. The KACHEN team is highly motivated and will continue to produce many more wonderful editions for you, that’ s a promise! We also have a fantastic surprise coming up: we will soon be publishing a brand new version of REESEN, which will not only be improved in every aspect, but also be released more frequently! See you in summer! With warm greetings,

Bibi Wintersdorf and the entire team at KACHEN

Once again, we have something new for you to discover in this issue: the children’s section has become a chapter of its own, and we look forward to bringing you even

TEAM

JONE KARRES AZURMENDI The Basque-German grew up in Germany and Spain. She studied sociology, art, and media in Constance. Since then, she has written about film and culture as a freelancer. When she felt the draw of the unknown, she applied to be a tourist guide and toured around half the globe. 16 years ago, she moved back to her Basque hometown, the culinary stronghold San Sebastián. With her Masters in Gastronomy Tourism and her great love for the Basque Country, she has since familiarised visitors with country, people and especially the local delicacies. But those who stay at home can also follow her knowledge: as an author, Jone takes her readers with her on a journey to the Basque Country.

STÉPHANIE KRISCHEL Stéphanie gave her passion for writing a professional chance. As a freshly minted freelance writer, she has been transforming exciting facts about sustainable food culture into digestible morsels of prose since last year. Besides her personal interests, her past studies in farm-animal science and agricultural education serve her as sources of inspiration. As a seaside junkie, Vienna fanatic and railway enthusiast, she loves regular changes of scenery, from which ever new ideas for topics and texts emerge. At Kachen, Stéphanie can indulge in her passion for writing in our section on sustainability.

POL SCHONS Books and baking! From a young age, Pol has been equally passionate about both. Accordingly, he spent a probably unusual amount of time for the average student in both the library and the kitchen throughout his studies, regularly testing new dishes and ideas with (and on) his friends and roommates. After completing his Master in English Literature at the University of Glasgow, Pol joined our Team here at KACHEN exactly one year ago. His role as managing editor expands well beyond the literary, not afraid of wielding either pen or knife, as he regularly enjoys preparing dishes for the magazine himself. Outside the office and the kitchen, Pol is an avid runner and traveller, eager to discover and try what else the vast culinary world has to offer.

After remaining closed for several months following last summer’s floods, which left the restaurant in a bad shape, Comptoir Bohème reopened its doors in December to the delight of workers and residents of the Cloche d’Or district. Located in the Vega building, Comptoir Bohème invites you to dream and travel. With a bright and colourful restaurant room, dotted here and there with huge green plants, natural wood furniture and pottery, the place will transport you directly to a Mediterranean place. On the menu, the chef offers Italian specialties (pasta, risottos, pizza) but also fish specialties such as ceviche or seafood platters. Thanks to its terrace, Cloche d’Or is the ideal place to enjoy the beautiful spring days that are on their way.

After 15 years in the Langwiss II gallery in Junglinster, the restaurant and delicatessen Le Gourmet has undergone a complete makeover! In terms of decoration, the team wanted to create a new, even warmer and more convivial place. As soon as the warm weather arrives, the enlarged terrace will be the perfect place to enjoy a good meal. With a brand-new kitchen, the chef and his team are ready to offer mouth-watering dishes. A new menu has been created by the team, while keeping the classics that are so dear to the customers. On the grocery side, customers will have easier access to this space transformed into a small shop, with products carefully selected from new suppliers. A new takeaway range has also been developed. After a very long closure, the whole team is looking forward to seeing its customers again!

The T’Chiz had its grand opening back in July last year, presenting a sophisticated venue with a warm and festive ambience. With the objective to offer a varied, gourmet menu, the kitchen offers a broad selection of cheese-based specialties as well as the finest cuts of meat. At weekends, the restaurant goes into party mode and transforms into an exciting bar/restaurant hybrid with live music and DJs. Recently, T’Chiz also introduced a new Sunday Brunch concept, with an all-you-can-eat feast. To accommodate their guests even more, they offer an on-site babysitter service to ensure the best possible experience for young and old. After the successful introduction of their comedy dinner last December, a rather unique and innovative idea, they are also happy to announce more such events in the future. In the spirit of providing the best possible experience, they further offer a free shuttle service (within a 40 km radius) to bring their customers home safely. The venue can also be booked for business and private events.

Osé opened its restaurant doors for the first time on the 2nd of July 2022, just on time for the anniversary of Chef Jean Baptiste Durand. Located in the small village of Ellange, the restaurant established its roots within the charming old walls of a typical Luxembourgish house. The identity and name of the restaurant, Osé (daring), rightfully take on their full meaning in the chef ’s creative and unique creations, which despite their sometimes audacious combinations, remain perfectly delicious and balanced. While the venue might, at first glance, appear rather simplistic, it provides a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere with tailored service. All you have to do is “dare” to venture into this cosy neighbourhood and let yourself be carried away onto an indulgent culinary journey straight from, and in harmony with, nature. Quality, hospitality and attention to detail are the cornerstones that ensure a memorable experience in a place full of stories, just waiting to be told.

BOOKS

MINDFUL MIXOLOGY — Derek Brown —

Creating these drinks isn’t as simple as removing the alcohol. No- and low-proof cocktails have to be balanced yet still be delicious, but they don’t operate exactly like cocktails with alcohol. The drinks Brown presents in this book are meticulously choreographed around taste, texture, body, and piquancy to result in surprisingly complex “adult beverages” minus the booze. Drawing on historical research, meticulous tweaking of classic cocktails to create lower-proof versions, Derek shares sixty recipes well as a guide to the ingredients and equipment to imbibe in Mindful Mixology at home.

Indulgent recipes that leave you feeling satisfied and energized include Almond Berry Overnight Oats, Energized Mocha Crunch Smoothie, Thai Crunch Salad, Pesto Farro Risotto with Sugar Snap Peas, Date Bites and many more.

SEASONAL MENU

Those of you who regularly visit our social networks (@kachenmagazine on Instagram and Facebook and kachen.lu) will certainly remember the beautiful scenes of a special event that took place last October *. In a greenhouse, in the middle of nature, at Les paniers de Sandrine in Munsbach, we got to experience a 100% natural brunch. The 15-course menu, completely plant-based, prepared by the young chef of the restaurant Osé in Ellange, was accompanied by perfectly paired, 100% natural cocktails mixed with Belvedere vodka. Symposium, the mixology platform of Wengler Châteaux et Domaines, mixed the cocktails with local products and seasonal vegetables with Belvedere vodka. We are delighted that Chef Jean-Baptiste Durand and Symposium by Wengler have agreed to concoct a similar menu and cocktails, adapted to the season, for the spring edition of KACHEN. We wish you a pleasant discovery. *
