Gluehwein / Gluhwein
This is a traditional German/Austrian holiday drink that is often enjoyed after a chilly day of skiing. I got this recipe from Else on Allrecipes.com and can’t wait to try it. I modified it slightly based on its reviews.
Krautfleckerl- Hungarian Cabbage and Noodles
This dish has its roots in Hungary but is also popular in Austria and Germany. My German grandmother made this using square pieces of pasta but I will post the recipe as I found it on the internet. I like to fry some chopped bacon and garlic together with the onions and cabbage. This a cheap but very good meal. Edit to say, and hope this helps for others who will try this recipe, the step of letting the cabbage sit in the salt is important, it does add a better flavor to the recipe and the texture.

Bayrischer Gulasch: German Goulash Stew – Crock Pot or Oven
A firm favourite of mine when I lived in Herford in West Germany. This recipe comes from a German friend of mine who lives in Bavaria, and is delicious served with sour cream, dumplings or noodles – oh yes, don’t forget the crusty sourdough bread as well! Although this is nice served with the above accompaniments, it is essentially a one pot meal which is sufficient to feed most hungry families. It can be cooked on the top of the stove or in a crock pot; the latter method is my favourite, especially when I am very busy or I need to go out!
Butterhorns Aka Rugelach / Rugulach / Snails / Schnecken
One of my favorite cookies of all time, these are fabulous warm from oven, but also keep well in an airtight container. My Hungarian/Austrian Grandmom called these “Butterhorns”, an aunt on the other side called her version “Schnecken” and I have seen versions of this also under “Rugelach” or “Rululach”. It really does not matter what they are called, they are AWESOME!!!! (Chill time not included)
