The Confirmation Meal

On Sylv's request, here comes the menu of my nephew's confirmation meal. It will be prepared and served by Toño, Tina and me this Thursday (a.k.a. May Day, a.k.a. Ascension Day, a.k.a Peter's Confirmation Day). Since this will be lunch, we will restrict ourselves to four courses.

Soup
Beef Consommé Celestine (Flädlisuppe) based on a home-made broth.

Salad
Iceberg lettuce with cucumber and melon balls at a Sbrinz dressing.

Main Course
Low temperature veal roast with lemon-honey-rosemary icing, soured milk with herbs, potatoes and veggies.



Selection of Desserts
Black Forest cake (my sister's work)
Roulade stuffed with dried pears cooked in red wine and blue cheese, and with port wine gelée
Lemon drizzle cake
Apple-amaretti "tiramisu"
