Handkäs mit Musik

Hi Mommy,

best regards from Oberursel near Frankfurt in the state of Hessen!

Today, Anja introduced me and the two other toy voyagers staying here to a real specialty from the state of Hessen: Handkäs mit Musik! 

This literally translates into "hand cheese with music". Weird, but you'll see...

Anja was too lazy to make it herself, so she bought it packaged:



When you unpack it, you find three big slices of a cheese that smells like ... sorry ... old socks  and a small cup of vinegar and oil dressing with onions




You pour the dressing and the onions onto the cheese



and then you eat it all, usually with bread and butter



and you drink apple wine or beer with it.

Looks weird, but it is quite tasty! 

And "hand cheese with music" means:
the cheese is so small you can take it in your hand... and after you eat all the onions, you will "make some music" sooner or later.

Hessian regards
Wusch
