"Die Wellen flüstern. Die Luft schmeckt salzig und frisch. Einen Strauß aus Seegras und Jasmunder Buchenzweigen stellt sie hinzu. Dekoriert mit Rapsblüten, Muschelschalen und Seetang die Tafel. Bittet Möwe, Seeadler, Kraniche und Kormorane um ein Quartett. Eine leichte Brise streicht über den Strandhafer und biegt die Halme wie zum Gruß.
Es ist angerichtet." (*)
Oscar Wilde
"When autumn begins, half of Rügen turns into the bushes! Sea buckthorn in particular is a very special specialty that you shouldn't miss.
The sea buckthorn is one of the brave fellows that, like the marram grass, can be found at the very front of the water. Always hard on the wind, defying the salty shore, not squeamish about the harsh, changeable weather at sea. The sea buckthorn, although it once arrived from the Himalayas during the Ice Age, is completely Rügan." (*)
Sea buckthorn is not a berry, it is a nut. And she has the talent!
Lots of vitamin C (10 times as much vitamin C as lemons!), healthy fatty acids, carotenes, stomach-friendly tannic acids and even B12. The choline is said to help against fat deposits and is considered a slimming agent.
You definitely shouldn't miss this healthy treat!
