Shepherd Ham is made from sheep that are taken to graze on moorlands, dikes and other natural grazing and they are accompanied by a shepherd. Shepherd Ham is a local product of Limburg and is soft and full of flavor, available with or without bone. The meat is massaged with fine sea salt and then dry-cured for a length of time. Each Shepherd Ham has its own story: every shepherd has a UBN number that can be traced through the website. So you can see the information about the shepherd and the grazing locations.

Nowadays the brewery produces at about 3000 liters of beer to a growing number of restaurants, bars and liquor stores in the Netherlands. For the next step, the creation of their own brew-pub, the brewers ask their fans for help. To set up the location where brewery, bar and local foodsnacks are combined at the Westerdok in Amsterdam, they need an investment of € 200.000,-. A total of €100.000,- will be collected via CrowdAboutNow, where everyone can invest from € 100,- upwards for a return on investment of 5% per year for three years. There are extra rewards for various amounts of invested money.

‘Eat to Meet’ is an online platform for offline dinners at a restaurant of your choice. Participants can fill in their interests and preferences and can choose in which restaurant they want to dine. This provides social contact and a pleasant evening. Participation is free of charge, but the costs for dinner must be paid. Eat to Meet organizes the dinners, but the goal is that the participants are going to organize their own dinners. The platform collaborates with a number of restaurants in the Netherlands, dinners mainly take place on less busy days.
The Mogl app helps raising money for the food bank. Users can register their credit card and when they dine at a participating restaurant, they will receive 10% discount. The user can choose how much of the cashback they donate to the local food bank. The app also shows how many meals there are donated per city and how many meals are still needed. Currently Mogl is only available in a number of American cities, but the goal is to expand.
On Monday, January 13th the ‘Dutch Cuisine’ was officially presented. This movement represents the Dutch cooking with a kitchen of 80% vegetables and 20% animal. The ‘Dutch Cuisine’ is a kitchen that continuously renews, the platform provides the ‘Dutch Cuisine’ with a stage and face. The movement makes the chefs and consumers aware of the edible world around us where unexpected combinations originate from regional ingredients. ‘Dutch Cuisine’ stands for creativity, free thinking, obstinacy, pragmatism and simplicity: less is more. Chef cooks like Niven Kunz, Hans Everse, Luc Kusters and Albert Kooy are already connected with the movement.
The need for sustainable produced meat increases. At the website koopeenkoe.nl consumers can buy a ‘horizontal’ part of a cow together with other consumers, also called ‘crowd butching’. The cows of koopeenkoe.nl have three times more space than an average cow and don’t eat manipulated food or antibiotics. If the entire cow is sold, the cow is slaughtered and the meat matured. Buyers receive a 7,5 kilo meat packet for two persons, from steak to sausage. The more people buy a cow, the faster you receive the meat package at home. Because the meat of koopeenkoe.nl goes directly from farmer to consumer, the meat is affordable.
For anyone who cooks along with a youtube video, dirty fingers on the screen of the laptop or tablet are very recognizable. The video goes to fast, you need to pause it every now and then. The website ‘Handy’ by Flore avoids this problem. You can upload a youtube video on the site and it is played in full screen mode, while the webcam is activated. When you wave your hand from left to right the video will play, whilst a right-to-left wave will pause it. Additionally you can save the videos in an online cookbook.
