Flemish Recipes

There are many delicious specialities that have been cooked for generations by Flemish families. Recipes have been adapted and modernised over the years but by and large, the custom of cooking traditional recipes handed down by generations, has remained at the heart of their original and hearty food culture.

Many of the favourites, such as rice pudding with saffron, date back to medieval times when Flemish soldiers brought back the recipe after going to war in Turkey. Others derive from seasonal local produce like endives and asparagus which can be found in abundance during different times of the year.

Most Flemish favourite recipes are easy to prepare, use simple ingredients and a desire to indulge in some of the most mouth watering cuisine in the world?
