Cross Country of the Year
In glorious October weather we completed this year's Cross Country - "a good walk spoiled". The course is challenging enough for everyday play, but on this day a scramble is played across the holes...and especially the rough.
That's why Jacob and the greenkeepers also went the extra mile for the participants with white glögg, hot cocoa, duck rillette and many other goodies.
Once inside the clubhouse, the tournament's regular sponsor "Rosé, Vin og Bobler" by Henrik Sølver served delicious wines and bubbles suitable for autumn, Christmas and New Year.
This year's happy winning team was:
Oskar Becker Frederiksen, Kersi Porbunderwalla and Annette Suhr
No. 2: Helle Boier, Anita Näsberg and Jan Becker Hansen.
No. 3: Kenneth Kromann, Kristin Strøm and Annette Halken.
Congratulations to all participants, thank you to our sponsor and thank you for a wonderful day.
Jacob's White mulled wine recipe for about 50 people.
1500 g cane sugar
8 organic oranges, juice plus grated peel of all.
5 organic lemons, juice of 5 plus grated zest of 2
½ liter of organic orange juice
21 cinnamon sticks
10 star anise
3 teaspoons ground cardamom
50 g peeled organic ginger, cut into thin slices.
3 liters of cardboard white wine
The ingredients are boiled and left in the pot until the next day in the fridge.
The filling is 1 kg of almond slivers and 1 kg of raisins, which are poured over with boiling brine consisting of 2 liters of water and 500 g. of regular sugar. Also poured over with 1 dl. Amaretto. The filling also lasts until the next day in the fridge.
The next day, strain the spices from the cooked spiced white wine and add 5 liters of white wine to the mulled wine.
Add ½ bottle of akvavit, 1 dl dark rum and 1 dl vodka and then do not let the mulled wine boil.
Add the filling without too much brine and heat well.
The white mulled wine is ready to serve. Note: regarding white wine. Here I always use a cheap white wine, as I prefer to drink the expensive white wine nicely chilled instead. Of course, you can choose what you use. However, it must be a regular dry white wine.
