Hello!So I noticed not much was discussed for the Beautiful Marie Antoinette during her birthday(258 years old and Still FABULOUS!) so what better time than 8 days later(better now than never, right?) so I decided to find some recipes all us fanatics of MA would like... Now there's no secret she LOVED White meat especially chicken, but she really wasn't that extravagant as we like to imagine she often preferred the simple simple foods and hardly touched the ceremonial foods... For part one I'm just going to give you the simple foods part two will have the indulgent foods and tasty treats! But for now hers simplicity...For breakfast she often ate a type of Austrian bread "Kipferl". I haven't tasted this or had it yet... But from the looks of it...let's just say YUMMY! Apparently Marie brought it with her as a comfort food from home when she went to be Dauphine...Anyway, kipferl would be an example of an early croissant(they didn't actually appear in French cuisine till the mid 19th century as far as I'm aware) Kipferl apparently tastes like a vanilla bread from what I've found on recipes for it... Please correct me if the original recipe isn't a vanilla bread.Ok here we go...Ingredients2 1/8 of a cup of all purpose flour1 pinch of salt7/8 of a cup of butter1/2 of confection sugar(powdered sugar)1 egg3 spoons of Vanilla sugar1 1/4 cup of ground almondsInstructions1.Mix the flour salt and butterTogether *with your hands!2.mix the confection sugar almonds vanilla sugar and egg to the mixture. Put in a fridge for about 30 minutes(majorly important to do so or they burn!)3.make rolls out of the dough and make them approximately 1 inch thick and cut the pieces into 1 inch each and curl into a semi circle shape. Then put them onto a baking tray and put them into the fridge for 15 minutes.4.bake the kipferl for 10 to 15 minutes and when done take off the tray gently5. When warm dip them into the confection and vanilla sugar(for a nice coat)Ok so I still have to make these and taste them... I'm drooling over them. They seem to be delicious! If you need something to accompany it the next part would be best...Ok for the next partMarie often had coffee or chocolate with her breakfast... So let's have chocolate. This isn't chocolate bars or hard chocolate or hot cocoa well it's kinda but...thicker and more liquidy (A common delicacy for breakfast in France!)So to make this chocolate it's pretty easy I usually make it this wayGet a bowl, and break up a plain 2 or 3 chocolate bars and put them into a bowl(if you want a none fatty one get dark chocolate) add water to the bowl and boil over a sauce pan of heat in the microwave and add whisked egg whites or if you prefer 1 egg yoke afterwards(unless you want boiled eggs in it(absolutely horrible) and mix together till it's a liquid and thick.Now for a dinner the simplest thing to make for it is roast chicken(Shocker isn't it) except a common taste to nobles was spice ...let's make it all niceSince making Roast chicken is pretty simple I'm just going to give you the recipe for a piri piri sauce(WARNING! If your not aware of what piri piri sauce is like...IT IS VERY HOT!!)Ingredients4-6 red chillis (adjust spice level to your taste....4 will be mildly spicy whilst 6 will be very spicy)1 big red capsicum/bell-pepper1 lemon's juice2 tbsp. paprika powder2 tsp. salt1 tbsp. oregano1/2 tsp. red chilli powder1/2 cup oil (veg or olive)5 cloves of garlic4 tbsp. dark vinegar1 tsp. black pepper1/4 tsp. red or orange food colouringInstructionsIt's pretty simple...Blend all the ingredients of the sauce until smooth, then pour into a container and keep refrigerated and only refrigerate for up to 2 weeks and use when you need it. Usually put over the chicken when your about to cook.Ok for our sweet teethed people I'll post The treats in part two tomorrow I guessSee you later little ducklings!
