hi there,
never heard of a name for it, though I'm not a specialist on German cuisine I can imagine that for having around a million recipes for "sauerkraut and potatoes" there is no special name other than what it consists of. It's definitely a popular side dish around here. Fits amazingly well with any kind of meat, i.e. salted pork leg, roast, steak, etc.

Something's been bugging me... I cook this dish which starts with onion and carraway seeds cooked in olive oil, then I add parboiled potato and coat with oil, then cover with sauerkraut and cook on the back burner on low heat until the rest of my meal is done. Actually that part doesn't bug me at all, it's extremely yummy : What does bug me though is not knowing whether this is a German dish, whether it's all or only part of Germany, and what it's called.

Aren't baby bees inside the little cells in the comb at some point? Is there certain times when babies aren't present? Doesn't sound as yummy if you think about crushing in little dead baby bees when you crush the comb.
afaik(from reading wikipedia) broodcombs exist only during specific periods of the year and they are usually darker in color.

I've never eaten a comb before; only the honey itself. I'm curious, does it taste different? I imagine it just tastes like crunchy honey.
combs are not crunchy. it is waxy..it's like eating almost tasteless candle mixed with honey. it's a nice experience to try, but it gets stuck in your teeth and overall a bit messy and sticky.


mmm fresh comb honey is amazing. I used to keep bees and this was my favorite treat. The yummy taste and soft chewy texture takes away from the feelings of guilt that you're eating a little fuzzy creatures home.

Mustn't blink or this magical yummy will disappear!

But why does this say Canada - it has the Eifel Tower at the beginning (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_Tower) which is clearly France. She talks about France all the way through.

The "Food Network" is clearly a Canadian TV Channel (http://www.foodnetwork.ca/)
But I wonder if the tags are mis-placed as this is not, French-Canadian.

At any rate "Spicey Eggs" is always a good thing! Looks yummy!

I believe god has a chocolaty center. With crushed nuts. And another layer of chocolate on top of the nuts. Then it's dipped in melted vanilla ice cream, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and then covered in a delicate layer of fresh monkey cum. Add a third layer of chocolate on top of that, some nuggat-clusters, caramel and a final layer of thick chocolate. Yummy! That's god to me.

God has revealed itself to me through your gospel: I AM CONVERT!
edit: wait a second... "fresh monkey cum"? You mean lezhog juice, right?
Oh my God, SCHISM!

DIE HERETIC!!!!!!
