Since the mid-fifties, the Kleinmarkthalle has been an integral part of Frankfurt's cityscape. Over 150 traders offer their fresh goods here day after day, making the Kleinmarkthalle an indispensable meeting place for gourmets and amateur gourmets. Specialities from all over the world are offered under the roof of the hall, in which the highly praised multiculturalism of Frankfurt is best reflected.
The wonderful flair of the Kleinmarkthalle, the wonderful wealth of offerings and the diversity of nationalities that meet here, is paid tribute to in a wonderful way in the book "Die Kleinmarkthalle kocht". In very beautiful texts by Eva Wolf, the Kleinmarkthalle and some of the traders who live there are introduced. Then there are the matching recipes, ranging from genuine Frankfurt specialties such as Green Sauce (p. 112) or Handkäse (p. 29) to simple home cooking such as Frikadellen (p. 142) to more exotic dishes such as Roast Beef Involtini with Pesto Stuffing (p. 141) or also Thai Granelensuppe (p. 77). The recipes are clearly explained and make the reader's mouth water just by studying them. Best of all, you know immediately where to buy all the ingredients you need.
Clearly divided into nine sections (appetizers, salads, soups, pasta, vegetables, meat, poultry and game, fish, desserts), a wealth of recipes is provided that truly offer just the right thing for every taste. Whether for a small appetite or an elegant dinner, lean or hearty, there are plenty of tasty suggestions here for every occasion and palate.
Filled with many wonderful images, this book succeeds in conjuring up a little slice of Kleinmarkthalle in readers' living rooms and kitchens. A lovingly put together cookbook that offers much more than just a collection of recipes. This makes "Die Kleinmarkthalle kocht" an absolute must, not only, but especially for real Frankfurters!
