As you have probably noticed, we sometimes just like to experiment with different flavors and combinations of ingredients.
We are often amazed at what the combination of certain tastes, which are actually very distinctive in themselves, brings great new flavors.
As with today’s recipe that we want to present to you, we find the combination of hearty and sweet / sour ingredients just very suitable.
