Seek and find
During the lockdowns, it's safe to say we've all become true baking princes and princesses. And we at Ylbb, just like the rest of the Netherlands, have done our part. From fresh bread to savory pies, quiches, and other treats, we had a recipe for everything. recipeTo further develop our skills, we've selected some delicious recipes from Rutger van der Broek's Savory Baking Book. Are you planning a high tea or lunch soon where you'd like to serve a variety of snacks? Mini quiches are always a good idea. There are plenty of delicious variations possible with the filling. Happy baking!

PUUR YONNIE, an ode to Jonnie Boer.
Today I had the honor of being at @delibrijezwolle for the book launch of @jonnie_en_therese.
I spent the whole evening reading and flipping through the pages.
WHAT A BOOK.
What stories.
WHAT AN ODE.
Love, Nature, Pioneer, Fatherhood, Music, Jonnie's Foundation, Friendship, Suppliers, Local products, Relaxation, Entrepreneurship, Humor & The pure human being.
Everything passes by, beautifully written by @joel.broekaert.
With contributions from, among others, @nelsontanate, @rekkebus, @ronblaauwtje, @jorisbijdendijk, @sidney_schutte & @hvw043.

This is your ticket to Japan without taking a plane 🥢
@tewatashi.ams in De Pijp serves an authentic Edo-Mae Sushi Experience and is super consistent in their quality.
It's the place we keep going back to when we have something to celebrate <3.
In this video I'm sharing the 2 hour experience in 60 seconds.
Still dreaming about the buttery ika nigiri. 🤤

@eetcafe_de_reiger is the spot to remember.
Cozy, casual, and a seasonal menu. This one was on my list to share for a year and finally it's (almost) asparagus season again! 🤤
Another plus? Prices are very reasonable here!
📍 Eetcafé de Reiger
Jordaan, Amsterdam City Centre
Save this spot for when you're craving warm Dutch traditional dishes in the heart of Amsterdam.
And did you hear the same team took over Eetcafé van Beeren? I can't wait to go there too!

A cookbook from Grandma. Three Michelin stars. And a beautiful 70s villa in a quiet neighborhood in Bangkok, where you are welcomed as if you were at the chefs' home.
The Sühring brothers do not cook based on trends; they cook from memories. Of their grandmother's farm, of the flavors of their youth in Germany, and of techniques passed down through generations.
@relaischateaux invited me to experience Sühring during a solo lunch, and this is truly my ultimate definition of culinary self-care.
This was a surprising afternoon in Bangkok, where I ate the best German food I have ever tasted. And that in a city where I normally avoid European restaurants. Well, for @restaurant_suhring, you really want to make that exception.
Signature dishes that I still think back to regularly?
🍴 Labskaus with caviar
🍴 Enleta waffle with Pfalz vinegar
🍴 Game pie
🍴 Dry aged Duck
TIP: If you go to Sühring, reserve the seats at the kitchen bar so you have a view of the chefs at work!

In this reels I take you along for fine dining in Bangkok at the three Michelin starred restaurant Sühring.
This is one of the nicest free outings in the spring! Did you know that you can gather (or pick, for the connoisseurs 😉) oysters yourself in various places in the Netherlands? I’m in Zeeland for a bit this weekend, and if we can, we’ll go again.
📍In this video, I show where you can fill your bucket.
Comment oester for the comprehensive guide with all details about all 8 locations + handy tips and rules.
Important to know:
– Max. 10 kilos per person (≈ 1 bucket)
– For personal use only
– Do not scoop or scrape the soil
– Go at low tide
Handy to take with you:
Bucket, screwdriver, boots, work gloves, tea towel, clean clothes and garbage bags (for the oysters and dirty clothes).
And of course: also bring an oyster knife, lemon and champagne 🍋🥂Because you want to taste something right away!
The oyster season runs from September to about April / early May, so now that the water isn't so cold, this is the perfect outing.
In the full guide, I share exactly where you can easily find them without much effort. Leave a comment and I'll send it to you right away!
Who do you want to go oyster collecting with soon?

These are those few magical weeks each year when the city suddenly feels different. Everything is in bloom and all you want to do is be outside. Coffee to-go in hand, and just head out as soon as the sun shows up.

🌸 Discover the best places to spot cherry blossom in Amsterdam and enjoy the sakura in full bloom. 🌸
Recipe: mini quiches
Suitable for: 12 mini quiches
You need:
1/2 puff pastry recipe (see puff pastry recipe)
Filling of your choice 1 egg
100 ml cream
Salt and pepper
Flower, for the worktop
Butter, for greasing
Puff pastry ingredients:
250 gr flour
5 g salt
250 g butter, cold
125 ml cold water
Flower, for the worktop
Puff pastry recipe: how to make it
- Combine the flour and salt in a bowl. Cut the cold butter into cubes about 1 by 1 centimeter and work them into the flour with your fingertips. No kneading is necessary.
- Add the water and mix until well combined. You don't need to knead it yet; the goal is to keep the butter cubes in the dough intact. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface until its length is three times its width. Because the dough contains lumps of butter, you'll need a little more flour on your work surface than you would with regular puff pastry.
Mini quiche recipe: How to make it
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease a 12-hole cupcake tin with butter.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface to a thickness of 2 to 3 millimeters and cut out circles that will cover the inside of the cupcake liners halfway up.
- Fill the pastry cases with the filling of your choice. Beat the egg with the cream and season the mixture with salt and pepper. Pour 1 tablespoon of the cream mixture into each case. Bake the quiches for 25 to 35 minutes. Remove the quiches from the cases and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or cold.
With minced veal and mushrooms:
Brown 200 grams of veal mince in a drizzle of olive oil. Add 100 grams of sliced wild mushrooms and cook briefly. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among the ramekins and sprinkle with 150 grams of grated mature cheese.
With chicken and pesto:
Cut 250 grams of chicken thigh fillet into pieces and fry them for 5 to 10 minutes in a drizzle of olive oil. Halfway through the cooking time, add the finely chopped white part of 1 leek. Let the chicken cool slightly and then mix it in.
Stir in half the pesto recipe (see page 50). Season with salt and pepper. Divide the filling among the ramekins and sprinkle with 20 grams of pine nuts.
With shrimp and red pepper:
Sauté 1/2 chopped red onion, 1/2 chopped red bell pepper, and 1 to 2 cloves of minced garlic in a drizzle of olive oil for a few minutes. Let cool slightly and divide among the ramekins. Cover the filling with 24 cooked and peeled shrimp (about 150 grams). Season the cream mixture with 1/4 teaspoon chili pepper and 1 teaspoon fine mustard.
