German Recipe Ideas for Personal Chefs by Ruth Paget

German Recipe Ideas for Personal Chefs by Ruth Paget 

I have learned to really like German food after living in Madison (Wisconsin), which has many citizens with German ancestry and restaurants serving German food as well as spending several years in Stuttgart, Germany on overseas duty with the US military. 

I found three German recipes in Gordon Ramsey’s cookbook Quick and Delicious: 100 Recipes to Cook in 30 Minutes or Less that I would consider purchasing from a personal chef experienced in making German specialty dishes: 

p.102 – pork schnitzel with celeriac (celery root) remoulade 

p.110 – juniper venison steaks with quick braised red cabbage

p.126 – roast pork chops with crushed new potatoes and lettue 

Gordon Ramsey includes recipes from around the world in Quick and Delicious, making it a good reference for building an international dish portfolio for personal chefs. 

Happy Cooking!
