THE PLACE TO ENJOY
TRADITIONAL IN PFANDL
Dishes served in a pan have a long tradition in Austria. Whether it’s venison pancakes or a farmer’s feast – everything is lovingly and tastily prepared and served in a pan.
In earlier times, eating together from a pan was very common, especially in rural areas. This gave rise to many dishes that are now eaten again. Today, however, the dishes are served individually for each person in a separate pan ;-) .
At the IMLAUER brewery restaurant in Salzburg, you can enjoy delicious Pfandl dishes from September 17 to October 3, 2022. Pfandl dishes enjoy.
Pinzgauer Kasnocken
One of our most popular Pfandl dishes, which we have on our menu all year round, is Pinzgauer Kasnocken. Head chef Adis Balic from the IMLAUER brewery restaurant reveals his recipe for this hearty vegetarian dish.
Ingredients for 2 people
200 g flour type 700 (plain)
200 g flour type 480 (coarse-grained)
6 organic eggs size M
1/8 liter cold water
100 g onion
150 g Pinzgau beer cheese
Salt, white pepper, nutmeg
Chives to taste
This is how it’s done:
Mix the two types of flour, the spices and the eggs well with a wooden spoon until you have a smooth mixture. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and rub the mixture through a spaetzle sieve. Stir again and again to prevent the spaetzle from sticking together.
Simmer for a good 7 minutes, stirring regularly. Then rinse in cold water and drain in a sieve.
Fry the finely chopped onion with a little oil in a well-coated pan until translucent (without color) and then add the spaetzle.
Brown to taste and then add the grated or finely diced Pinzgau beer cheese. Add a little beef stock so that the cheese can melt well.
Now it’s time to season! Ground pepper or a little salt will make the Kasnocken really tasty. But be careful with the salt, as the Pinzgau beer cheese also brings a lot of spice with it. After a few minutes in the pan, the dumplings should develop a nice roasted aroma and become really tasty.
Serve in a dish and garnish with chives and fried onions.
I wish you a good appetite
