Photographer’s Note

Today I show you something "very Swiss", something very tasty and something in great demand - a specialty called Bündnerfleisch. I think, each Swiss restaurant, which sets value on a good reputation, will offer this specialty.

Bündnerfleisch is made out of very fatless beef which ripens about 5 weeks in low temperatures under addition of salt and secret mixed herbs and by this it loses a part of it's water.

After this the beef is dried for 10 - 15 weeks in the fresh high mountain's air of the Swiss canton Graubünden (Grisons)- hanging in nets. During this the beef loses a half of it's natural weight. It has less than 5 % fat and it contains about 40 % of high quality protein.

Well, enough advertising. You must try it ...
