Christmas tree recycling: enjoyment from conifers for gourmets!

The creative cooking culture blooms - with our beloved Christmas trees! According to ARD Mediathek, many Germans are not ready even after their holidays, their Christmas tree to throw on the street. Instead, more and more households have discovered that needle trees can not only be used for the festive splendor, but also for tasty dishes. Whether it is about the preparation of healthy oxymel drinks or the production of special gifts such as tree spices and spruce oils-the kitchen is about the user elements of fir and co.

The culinary variety of conifers is staged perfectly by herbal teacher Victoria Lorenz. Like BR television , for example, the fir is unfolding flavors that are reminiscent of mandarins, while the spruce offers a fresh lemon flavor. In her workshops, Lorenz reveals which conifers are edible and how you can optimally use their full flavors in the kitchen without falling into toxic varieties such as the yew. So the needle tree kitchen becomes an experience for palate and health at the same time.

The concept is not only tasty, but also sustainable. By processing organic needle trees, valuable raw materials are used and waste is avoided. Dishes such as spruce butter or pine cone inserts make a bridge between home and modern cooking. A special highlight is the Tiramisu with fir dust that gives the dessert a fresh, foresty twist.

The possibilities are almost unlimited and many creative recipes and tips for collecting in the forest are ready to rediscover the domestic flavors. A little note: If you want to get a taste, you should not miss Victoria Lorenz's workshops.
