Cheese Tart (Käsewähe)

Posted on September 13, 2017by Little Zurich Kitchen

Käsewähe is one of the Swiss’ staple foods, especially in the colder months of the year.

Rhubarb Tart (Rhabarberwähe)

Posted on April 16, 2016September 18, 2017by Little Zurich Kitchen

It’s April and the rhubarb season has begun – an indicator that spring (I mean the real spring, not the sunny-cold-windy-rainy April early spring) is around the corner. Traditionally, we Swiss use rhubarb mostly for sweet recipes such as rhubarb tart or rhubarb compote. Like all Swiss, we bake a lot of tarts, and the […]
