Halupki Stuffed Cabbage Soup aka Cabbage Roll Soup Dinner At The Zoo Recipe Review
Stuffed cabbage rolls are a delicious and hearty Eastern European dish, but they can take a lot of work to make. If you want the flavor profile of stuffed cabbage rolls (Halupki, Gołąbki, etc), but a lot less work, try a Halupki Stuffed Cabbage Soup Recipe like this and see what you think!

Add chopped onion and garlic. How To Make Halupki Stuffed Cabbage Soup aka Cabbage Roll Soup:
2. Add the bay leaf and brown sugar
How To Make Halupki Stuffed Cabbage Soup aka Cabbage Roll Soup:
3. Toss everything else in! The cabbage, broth, tomato sauce, rice and carrots. I didn't have any carrots, so I didn't add them. No big deal imo. Simmer for at least 25 minutes until the rice and cabbage are tender. Adjust seasoning (salt / pepper) as needed!
Dinner At The Zoo Halupki Stuffed Cabbage Soup Recipe Review
This was a great and easy recipe to make and there's nothing like soup to comfort you on a chilly day. But honestly, I would eat soup for any meal, any day of the year. :-)
Adjustments: Next time I think I would sauté the cabbage a bit before adding the broth and tomato sauce. For the full recipe, visit the Dinner At The Zoo Cabbage Roll Soup Recipe here!

In the Summer of 2018 we had a special opportunity to visit friends and get a taste of a wonderful place - Portugal! No list of "top foods to try in Portugal" is complete without the glorious little Portuguese custard tart known as Pastel de Nata!
originally post date 11/12/20
Our first Pastéis de Nata came from Portela Cafe on Rua da Graça in Lisbon. It was a short stroll from our airbnb and we wanted to get our Portugal trip off to a good start with cafe and pastries for breakfast! ;)
From there we enjoyed Pastéis de Nata just about everywhere we went - Lisbon, up the Silver Coast, Porto, and even the airport lounge on the way home.
So what exactly is a Pastel de Nata?
Pastéis de Nata are a delightful little treat consisting of a flaky crust filled with custard. Most people enjoy their Pastéis de Nata with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and cinnamon on top! Some people prefer just cinnamon or just powdered sugar while others enjoy a Pastel de Nata as is!
How do you eat a Pastel de Nata?
Easy. Just take a bite for optimal enjoyment of the creamy custard together with the crispy crust. There is a segment of society, however, who prefer to use a spoon to eat the custard first and then eat the crust. Posh. ;p No matter how you eat your pastel de nata, it's going to be delicious!

The answer is yes! If you don't want to go through the effort of making your own puff pastry, you can definitely take the short cut and use frozen puff pastry. I used Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets and it worked like a dream. In the future, I would like to do it 100% from scratch, but it's nice to lower the barrier of entry. ANYONE can make this!

How To Make Pastéis de Nata Custard Step-by-step
- Whisk 3 tablespoons of flour with 1/4 cup of milk until smooth
- Bring 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar, 1 cinnamon stick, and 2/3 cup of water to boil. Do not stir this, but let it boil until 220F or 100C
- Scald 1 cup of milk (237ml) in a separate small sauce pan. Whisk scalded milk into the milk/flour mixture.
- Take the cinnamon stick out from the syrup and pour it into the milk/flour mixture, whisking the whole time. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla.
- Whisk the yolks from 6 large eggs in a bowl. Then whisk them into the milk/flour/syrup mixture.
- Strain this thin mixture into a bowl.
How long will Pastéis de Nata uncooked custard mixture last?
Uncooked custard mixture can last in the refrigerator for up to 3 days according to LeitesCulinaria.

Tips for using Frozen Puff Pastry to Make Pastéis de Nata
How long does it take for frozen puff pastry to defrost/thaw from frozen?
In general, thaw at room temperature for 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
It's important to let the pastry thaw or else you will break it when you try unroll it from the package.
Once the pastry is thawed, you are going to lay it flat on your work space (I used this large cutting board) and then roll it tightly into a log. Wrap it in plastic and refrigerate until you are ready to assembly your Portuguese custard tarts!
See this CupcakeJemma video below for the technique:

Assembling Pastéis de Nata
|
I also tried to make them in normal sized cupcake tins, but I filled them up too high, causing the custard to run down the side and caramelize way before the pastry was fully cooked. You can tell below that the pastry at the bottom is still soft. I definitely recommend taking seriously the recommendation to fill just 3/4 full!
When do you eat a Pastel de Nata?
Should you eat Portuguese custard tarts hot or cold?
There's no wrong way! Some people love them warm, others like the texture of the custard better when it is at room temperature. Still others like them cold! The only way to decide is to try them all three ways, don't you agree? ;-)
Do Pastéis de Nata need refrigerated?
In most instances, there won't be any left over since they are so tasty! But on the off chance that you do have left overs it is recommended that you store them in the fridge.
How do you reheat Pasteis de Nata?
Reheating a pastry like this is best done in an oven or toaster oven over a microwave, for sure. 350F around 7 minutes should do the job!
How long do Pasteis de Natas last?
In an airtight box they may last up to 2 days. If refrigerated around 5 days. But seriously, just eat them today. :)

I could drink bone broth any time of day, I find it so soothing and nourishing. I love that these little bone broth packets from Bare Bones support your day with 10g of protein and you just need to add water. At around $1/pop they may feel a bit pricey, but they are definitely nice to have on hand for a quick and comforting boost or even a travel day! I prefer the beef to the chicken, but I've added some more salt and pepper to the chicken flavor and enjoyed it as well!
Ranking: 4/4 - love it!

A huge thanks to Keisha from Kansas, USA for submitting this family recipe for
Salvadoran Sopa De Frijoles (bean soup)!
This recipe was passed down to her from her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. How cool is that?!
Salvadoran Sopa de Frijoles is traditionally cooked over an open flame with a clay pot. You can imagine how much flavor that imparts. Keisha nicely explains the difference as being "like cooking a steak in your kitchen or on the grill.... Either way, it's still pretty tasty!"
