Learning How To Make Dumplings At A Mountain Hut In Italy.
|
Just
who's the man in the funny looking hat? And why am I laughing so hard?
Meet Franz Mulser, chef at Gostner Schwaige Mountain Hut in Alpe Di
Suisi (Seisor Alm) located in the Italian Alps. Franz led myself and a
group of very hungry travel bloggers through a cooking class where we
learned how to make dumplings from scratch.
I happened to be laughing at Franz's very honest proclamation that my
dumplings were done "Cheryl style". It was his "nice" way to tell me
that my dumpling making skills weren't exactly up to par.

The
Gostner Schwaige Mountain Hut is really a special place. Set against
this dramatic and beautiful landscape, the mountain hut has a restaurant
which offers the perfect opportunity to stop and eat a meal after a day
spent hiking the nearby trails. As you eat your meal, you might even be
serenaded by this adorable old man playing the accordion. If hiking is
not your thing, you can also take a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride
up to the mountain hut.

Franz
not only serves delicious fresh food to his customers (we cooked with
mushrooms picked that very day), he also offers cooking courses where
you can learn not only how to make local specialities like dumplings but
cook outdoors using this old wooden stove. That morning, we learned how
to make two kinds of dumplings - one filled with meat which was our
main course and another filled with fruit for dessert providing us with a
delectable combination.
Suiting up in "proper" attire, it was time for the cooking class to
begin.

The
best part of the experience was of course, being able to eat the
"fruits of our labours". I can honestly say that this meal was one of
the best I've ever eaten! Thanks to Franz, I'm now a woman obsessed with
dumplings.
If you're interested in learning how to make this at home, I'd suggest
reading the ever wonderful Laurel's post where she provides the recipe
and outlines step-by-step instructions for making the dumplings.
Better yet, come to Gosner Schwaige Mountain Hut and sign up to take
this very same cooking class!
