20 g Butter
1 dl Milk
1 Egg
15 g Baking powder
10 g Ground cloves
10 g Nutmeg
10 g Cardamon
1 pn Cinnamon
Icing for decoration (Units: 100 g = 3 1/2 oz; 1 dl = 3 1/2 fl oz = 2/5 cup; 180 oC = 350 oF; 200 oC = 400 oF; 230 oC = 450 oF; 250 oC = 475 oF; 2.5 cm = 1 inch)
The Story: The rural origins of Appenzell cookery are evident even in this substantial honey cake. It is very fashionable during the festivities at the end of the year to serve a spiced honey cake following the example of the famous triangular "Biberli", which also blends honey and spices. This recipe is inspired by the "Bacheschnitte" which are served on the "Funkensonntag", a spring festival held to exorcise all the evil spirits of winter by fire. The recipe: Gently heat the honey in a copper bowl or a bain-marie. Heat the milk with the sugar separately then add to the honey and stir well over a low heat. Leave to cool. Put the flour into another bowl and stir in the honey mixture and then the other ingredients. Work all these together to a smooth consistency . Place a greased flan ring (22 ... 24 cm diameter, 3.5 cm high) on a baking tray and fill with the mixture. Brush the top with milk and score a decorative pattern on the surface using a fork. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 180 oC (test with a needle). When cold, decorate with icing.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Swiss cuisine bears witness to many regional influences, including from French, German and Italian cuisines and also features many dishes specific to Switzerland. Switzerland was historically a country of farmers, so traditional Swiss dishes tend to be plain and made from simple ingredients, such as potatoes and cheese.

Swiss trains, trying new desserts, discovering new cantons
Love travelling and trying new desserts everywhere I go. This time it’s a train ride through German speaking part of Switzerland. Incredible views and a new discovery: the Appenzell gingerbread (also called Biberli or Bärli-Biber). It is is a spicy honey cake with almond, hazelnut and fried apricot stones. This dessert is a specialty of the Canton of Appenzell in Switzerland.
