This is my project of documenting food during my study in UK 2012/13 under Chevening Scholarship. Many friends have requested me to do this and I think it's a great project to pick up. Who says study abroad means instant noodles, fast food restaurants and eating out all the time? Who says that it has to be fancy, expensive and time consuming.... hehehe... let's break that with a little bit of TLC from your own kitchen.

Enjoy!

Kaastengels



A new favourite in the house. Just because it's almost Idul Fitri and this is one of the firm favorite, i think I am just homesick. Anyway, from the name I suspected that Kaastengels is from Holland with Kaas means cheese. This crumbly buttery shortcake is packed full of tangy cheese. It is very simple and quick to make too. Now, I know that there's a special cutter for the cookies but since I don't I just cut them in strips.

Ingredient:
300 gr Butter or Margarine
200 gr Cheese - I use Edam Cheese the first time and second batch uses Cheddar
400 gr All-purpose flour
2 tbsp Powdered milk (I do not use)
2 egg yolks

Glaze : 2 Egg yolks lightly beaten with 2 tbsp milk

Topping : 50 gr Grated cheese

Directions:
  1. Using an electric mixer, Beat butter/margarine with the egg yolks on a low speed. You don't have to do this for a long time. 2 -3 minute will do just to make sure the butter and yolks are well mixed
  2. Add the cheese, flour and powdered milk. Mix well - about 2 -3 minutes
  3. Turn off the electric mixer. If the dough is still sticky. Add 1 tbsp of flour and gently mixed with your hand until they no longer sticky to your hand. The texture will need to be soft.
  4. Flattened the dough into 1/2 cm thick or to your liking and use the Kaastengles cutter to cut it. Or just make a rectangle shaped and cut them to strips.
  5. Arrange the cut-out dough on a baking tray lined with baking paper, brush them with the glaze and sprinkled the extra cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes of low to medium heat or on 125 degree C, until golden and cooked.
No cutter, well... I am aiming for rustic touch anyway... hehehe
