© windkracht20De Liemers is proud of its local products, and rightly so! They range from ‘forgotten’ vegetables to the juiciest fruit, from buffalo milk to award-winning wine, from flour straight from the mill to beef from freely-grazing Blonde d’Aquitaines cattle. And craft beers, sustainable catfish, mustard, cheeses, jams, chutneys and fruit juices. You’ll find them all in De Liemers - culinary, authentic and pure delight. Cycle through the varied river landscape on the Liemerse Streekproductenroute (Liemers local products route), for example. You can stop along the way to have a guided tour of farms, visit farm shops and restaurants, or to buy apples from a roadside stall.
'Arnhemse Meisjes’ are crunchy oval biscuits made from yeast dough with a generous sprinkling of sugar. The biscuits were invented in 1829 by the Arnhem-based baker Hagdorn. Nowadays the genuine Arnhemse Meisjes are only made at the Van Asselt bakery in Arnhem.
