Sometimes I like to experiment with products. These sticks are a figment of my imagination. However, I think this recipe should be on the site because of its originality. In any case, if you want a simple and delicious snack for beer, first courses or treats for children, then I advise you! Incredibly delicious!
I offer a salad of carrots, cucumbers, radishes with a wonderful vegetable dressing. The salad is juicy, spicy, reminiscent of the taste of Chinese salad.
The delicate, velvety consistency of the soup is deliberately emphasized by the sharp cheese taste of crispy sticks – this is “bellissimo”. Try to cook and enjoy.
I found a lot of salads with cucumbers on the site, but I didn’t find this recipe, so I decided to share it. This is another recipe from the collection of recipes of the wonderful St. Petersburg chef Ilya Lazerson. The salad is prepared in a few minutes, but, despite its simplicity, it has a very fresh taste that goes well with fried fish and meat. In addition, it looks quite original and can become a decoration for any table.
The finished puff pastry makes this recipe extremely simple and accessible to everyone without exception. Cheese sticks are very well suited not only to beer, but also to coffee or tea. They can be made from the remains of cheese that were left after some celebration.
The cheese sticks turned out completely by accident. I wanted to bake cottage cheese cookies, but there was no cottage cheese, so I decided to experiment… which was crowned with success!!! Very tasty cookies, crispy, while fresh, and after storage in the refrigerator becomes softer. In general: you’ll lick your fingers! Very tasty with a cup of coffee, well, or a glass of beer! Try it – you won’t regret it!
“Oatmeal, sir,” only in a very pleasant form. Delicious, easy-to-prepare crispy oatmeal cheese sticks will be a great snack for beer or wine. You can cook the day before the party, put it in an airtight container and simply reheat it in the oven before serving.
Very tasty cheese sticks, which are hard to break away from. A great addition to any puree soups, as well as onion soup. They can successfully replace bread and toast.
Delicious, bright and spicy salad. Fast, tasty and affordable! Highly recommended! The salad turns out delicious, fresh and moderately spicy. The flavor of the salad is given by the dressing in Korean.
