Making birch syrop - part 2
After you collected the syrup, it's time to boiled. Put the birch sap in a large pan and bring it to boiling point. This is 10 liters.
After a few hours the sap will be reduced to 6 liters.
Put the gas lower because if you boil it to hard then the sugars will burn and you will have a bitter burned taste. After 5 hours the juice is reduced to just 1 liter.
Go on until you have only 400 ml over. Filter the sap two times and place the sap, almost syrop, in al smaller pan and simmer it to just 100 ml. As you see it's not a lucrative business but it's a very tasteful.

Making birch syrop - part 1
Between march and april (before the tree got leaves), the birch trees got the most of sap and sugar. Making birch syrop is very easy and it's not causing problems to the trees. In Canada and Amerika they extract birch sap from a long time.
First of all you need birch trees. Second you need a bottle or jerrycan, a tube and maybe some rope. Beside you need a knife but with a drill is faster and better for the tree.
First of all you need birch trees. Second you need a bottle or jerrycan, a tube and maybe some rope. Beside you need a knife but with a drill is faster and better for the tree.
Make a hole, just 1,5 cm deep. You need to be in the Cambium of the tree. Make a round and nice hole. Place the tube into it and assure yourself that the sap only run through the tube.
Place the bottle. I prefer to put the bottle on the ground. It's easier and quicker. As you see I have made a hole in the cap. If you do so assure yourself to make a small hole as well so that the air can go out.
If you place the bottle in the evening then it will be full in the morning. When you are ready, cut a nice piece of wood slightly bigger then the hole. Make a blunt point and hit it into the hole. Don't use wood from the ground because there is to many bacteries on it and it's dangerous for the tree.

Making tortelloni with ricotta, penny bun and walnuts
After drying the penny buns I decided to make something very succulent with it. I've lived for 18 years in Italy and making pasta is one of the things everybody can. So this recipe is one of my favourite and normally I don't add the mushrooms but I thought it will be nice and an extra great flavour to the dish.
The pasta for the tortelloni (big tortellini) is very easy to made but requires some strength and work. It's made form 200 gr of flour, 1 whole egg and 3 egg yolks. Knead together well for about 15 - 20 minutes. Wrap in foil and let rest for about 20 minutes in the fridge.
Make the filling. Add ricotta, fine crushed walnuts, fresh Parmesan cheese, salt, peper and the fine chopped and soaked penny buns together and stir. Taste and if it's good add 1 egg.
Make the tortellini as shown in the pictures and cook for about 2 minutes. Serve with a walnuts and sage butter sauce.

Use a pastamachine
Remove rounds from the pasta
Put some filling on it
Fold them and be sure to remove all the air from the inside
This is the way to make tortellini: hold it like that
Squeeze a little bit
turn the pasta around your finger
push the ends together
Ready to be cooked!!

Drying Penny Bun
This week I found two beautiful big Penny Buns (Boletus Edulis) and now they are drying outside.
The best way for drying mushrooms is to cut them in thin slices and then lace them up on a string and put them in the dry air outside. You can also put the mushrooms in a 100 degrees oven for about 2 hours.
After that you have to put the dried mushrooms in a clean jar and closed well and this is the result and it smells heavenly!!!

Delicious appelcake with Dutch Oven
(This recipe is written in Dutch and translated with Google translator, that is much more faster for me. I'm sorry for errors but I hope you'll understand. I think that the result will taste no less!)
Ingredients:
- 200 grams flour
- 150 grams butter
- 125 grams granulated sugar
- 0.5 vanilla baking powder
- 3 eggs
- 4 (sour) apples
- 100 grams raisins
- 2 spoons lemon juice
Preparation:
Start by making a fire. It works best with briquettes, but Charcoal also works well if you keep a little eye and supplements where needed. I usually do this after a BBQ. Briquettes remain a long afterglow and there are ideal for a Dutch Oven to set up. You don't need to preheat the Dutch Oven like a conventional oven.
Put the raisins for 15 minutes in hot water. Cut the apples in large pieces and place them in the Dutch Oven. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the apples and add the raisins. Sprinkle some sugar over the apple / raisin mixture and add a few cubes of butter (25 grams).
Place the Dutch Oven on a few briquettes and close the lid. Place the apples in the Dutch Oven.
Place 6-7 briquettes on the lid. The Dutch Oven is building in this way a uniform heat to the inside and apples will be heated.We will make now the batter.
Place butter and sugar in a bowl and knead with your fingers into the butter sugar by squeezing.
If it is a homogeneous paste place the eggs one by one and whisk the batter until it all is well mixed. Do that with a strong beat movement.
Add the baking powder to the flour and sieve the whole in the batter. Mix together well.
It should be soft and smooth batter.
Open the lid of the Dutch Oven and spread the batter over the apples until everything is covered. You should hear the already delicious apples sizzling!
Place the lid on the pan and cover it almost entirely with bricks (approx. 20 pieces). Bake in 40 to 45 minutes.Turn the lid a quarter turn every 10 minutes to avoid hot spots occur in some places and the cake will burn.
Check the pie after 30 minutes. Prick occasionally with a clean skewer to see if the cake is cooked.
Delicious with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
