Rijsttafel 200 Years of Netherlands U S relations
The Dutch introduced the rijsttafel with a mix of hot and soothing dishes featuring rice, coconut and cucumber. Four sample dishes showcase the Dutch culinary tradition linked to the 1982 bicentennial. De Kuyper liqueurs echo the voyage theme with a transatlantic cruise from Rotterdam to New York. Sates, Beef and Chicken curry, sambal, coconut amaretto and apricot brandy flavor the first rijsttafel menu. Sayur of cucumbers with cardamom and turmeric rounds out the dishes served hot or cold.
