Pödör and 3-Michelin-star chef Christian Bau together at the Zurheide gourmet summit in Dusseldorf

On 20th September, Düsseldorf’s high end Zurheide EDEKA hosted a grand gourmet festival, with a rich and unique culinary scene awaiting its 1500 guests on an area of no less than 60.000 square feet. True to the motto of the event: “The best all in one place!”, more than 30 Michelin star chefs were invited to demonstrate their expertise, who came up with the most extraordinary and beautiful creations. Among these creators was 3 Michelin star owning Christian Bau, Chef at Victor’s Fine Dining by Christian Bau, with Pödör Premium Oils and Vinegars as his partner. Christian Bau and his team had prepared for the gourmet summit with an astonishing quantity of 1200 portions of foie gras made with arabica coffee, sour cherry and hazelnut. On their shared gourmet stand, the taste of the hazelnut was delightfully intensified by the cold pressed Pödör hazelnut oil, which is made from piedmont Tonda Gentile hazelnuts, the finest hazelnut brand in the world.

Countless of gourmet fans grabbed the opportunity to taste the full range of Pödör products. On the shelves of the Deli department of Zurheide Feine Kost, Düsseldorf, a multitude of top quality oils and balsamic vinegars are waiting for visitors eager to test them.

Helga Wachtmeister, importer of Pödör Germany, in conversation with Jörg Tittel, chief organizer of Zurheide. Jörg Tittel’s opinion about the Pödör products: “It was the intensity of their flavors that Pödör oils and balsamic vinegars has won me over. In the case of poppy seed oil, for instance, you can feel the taste of the oily seeds very intensively, and so the dishes can be refined in a selective way, without the need to struggle with poppy seeds. With their quality, their versatility and their black and gold design, the Pödör products are a perfect match with the profile of Zurheide Edeka .”
